Timing is everything! Released just before Thanksgiving, “The Healing Power of Sugar
Picking up where “The Other Side of Envy” (Book #8) left off, Sang and the boys are now back at Ashley Waters High after being absent from classes for several days. But though it was supposed to be another normal boring day in school, Sang found herself in detention for her unauthorized absences. And as if the situation in school was bad enough, Volto also made an appearance.
When it rains, it pours! Uncle was unhappy about the closeness of Sang and North since Sang was supposed to be going out with Luke. And speaking of Luke, he had been distant lately, even lying to everyone where he was. Then, there is Kota who is becoming more demonstrative via PDA.
Sang was at a loss. She did not know if what was happening was the result of her, Luke and Gabriel accidentally learning about a polyamorous relationship about another Academy team. If only she can talk to Luke alone to discuss it.
But, as always, time was running out. Between Volto and the Thanksgiving holiday, Sang has to reach Luke before everything blows up in their faces.
The Healing Power of Sugar
From USA TODAY Bestselling Author, C. L. Stone, read The Healing Power of Sugar, the ninth book in The Academy Ghost Bird Series.
It’s been a week since Sang has attended any classes at Ashley Waters, and since then, everything has changed. Her school schedule has been turned upside down, and now, thanks to her absences, the school counselor, Ms. Wright, has suspended her. The fear of school officials getting further involved and looking to contact her parents has Sang and the boys forced into their best behavior. It seems that the once perfect student, Sang Sorenson, is now one of the school’s worst, and without explanation, because she needs to keep her lips tightly sealed. Academy secrets are becoming hazardous to keep.
The more that Kota, Victor, Silas, Nathan, Gabriel, Luke and North try to protect her, the more inevitable her downfall seems to be. They do their best to make sure Sang stays in school and when she returns to classes, try to help her get back on the straight and narrow—she can’t afford to screw up anymore.
But then fate deals out a setback that cripples the whole team, and they need to make a move, it turns into a risky one. There’s no way to predict the outcome. If they fail, the boys may lose the job they were sent to do, and worse, they may even lose Sang.
Everything gets more difficult when it’s revealed there might be a traitor amidst the group. Desperate to fix things, Sang needs to stop the group from spilling secrets and find out the truth.
And why all fingers seem to be pointing to Luke.
The Academy, Magnanimous!
