Synopsis:
In just one week, supernatural warrior Myla Lewis must discover enough evidence to send the evil House of Acca to prison… or she’ll end up in jail herself, along with her fiancé, Prince Lincoln. No pressure.
To gather proof, Myla and Lincoln go undercover at an all-girls high school on Earth. Lincoln acts as the new gym teacher; Myla becomes the school’s least popular transfer student ever. To stop them from getting the goods, Acca releases Hell on Earth. Literally. Good thing Myla and Lincoln aren’t afraid of a tough fight. This one promises to be the hardest yet. After all, whoever said high school wasn’t hell?
    I read this about a week ago. But I completely spaced on reviewing it at the time for various reasons. 

    I enjoyed this book but felt that the plot moved a tad too fast at times. These books are a lot of fun, but the pacing is too fast in my opinion. I liked that more about the Acca house was revealed,  though what they have exactly over Lincoln's father is yet to be revealed.

    The synopsis is slightly misleading, it's not so much a high school as a summer camp. But it is an all-girls camp. I wish I had reviewed this when it was fresh in my mind; because I don't remember all of what has happened. 

    Acca is truly an evil house, Eldred was willing to sacrifice his daughter, and put the entirety of his people at risk by siding with Armageddon, actually believing a demon wouldn't betray him.

    I feel like there is still more to be found out about the house, that not everything has been wrapped up yet. I am really enjoying these books that didn't exist the first time I read this series. I just wish they were longer so the pacing didn't feel rushed.
