The Revenge Game is a wickedly comic feminist mystery that delves into the dark side of a hopeless romantic's seemingly perfect love story. It's an engaging read for fans of Jessica Goodman and Kara Thomas.

Alyson is a romantic, and sometimes it gets her into trouble. Last summer, she mistakenly thought her co-worker was interested in her, only to find out he considered her flirting pathetic.

Then she meets Brenton Riggs Jr., and instantly feels their connection is real. When Brenton saves her one night from an unsettling party encounter, she falls head-over-heels. Finally, Alyson finds someone she likes who likes her back!

However, matters get complicated when Alyson discovers the King's Cupβ€”a competition among the boys at their boarding school to prove their sexual prowess. This revelation puts her on edge. Does Brenton truly want to be with her, or is he just trying to win?

In response, Alyson and the other girls at the school initiate their own contestβ€”The Queen's Cupβ€”aimed at reclaiming their power. But as this competition intensifies, Alyson's relationship begins to unravel, and soon the cracks in her perfect love story become evident.
