About the Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep series
The Brutal Boys of Everlake Prep is a high-school reverse-harem bully romance set during a fictional viral lockdown, following Tatum as she's trapped in quarantine with the three boys who hate her most: Blake, Kyan, and Saint, who call themselves the Night Keepers and have built a cult-like identity around a local monster legend. Her father's crimes have made her a target, and the boys intend to make her pay for them, escalating from cruelty toward something more possessive as the quarantine drags on and a fourth boy, Monroe, complicates the dynamic further.
Published in 2020 and 2021, the four-book series is unapologetically dark — explicit bullying, dubious-consent romance beats, and high-heat scenes throughout — and set apart from Peckham and Valenti's fantasy work by its real-world contemporary setting. It's a self-contained story with a clear endpoint in Queen of Quarantine, not connected to Zodiac Academy or their other series.
