Tricky Girls: A Sapphic Why-Choose Romance (Girls of Hazelhurst Book 1)

Hazelhurst University has a secret, and it's far darker than any midterm exam.

Beneath its ivy-covered facades and prestigious reputation, Hazelhurst is a campus run by a Mafia underworld that doesn't tolerate outsiders—especially not ambitious scholarship students who ask too many questions. She knows the rules: stay invisible, protect her future, and never attract the wrong kind of attention. Then one reckless night changes everything, and suddenly three of the most dangerous women on campus have her squarely in their sights.

Elly leads with a gentle authority that makes surrender feel almost reasonable. Haz burns with a possessive darkness that's as terrifying as it is magnetic. And Nic? Nic hates her with a ferocity that feels deeply personal, the kind of hatred that hides something far more complicated underneath. Three women. Three entirely different threats. One scholarship student who swore she'd never get involved.

This sapphic why-choose romance set against a dark, Mafia-run college landscape doesn't pull its punches. Holly Thorne delivers a story where the line between enemy and lover dissolves slowly, dangerously, and with enough tension to keep pages turning well past midnight. The horror lurking at Hazelhurst's edges isn't just atmospheric—it's a constant reminder that falling for any of these women could cost everything.

When the chase becomes something neither hunter nor prey can name, staying invisible was never really an option.
