Welcome to New Hope Academy—home of the rich and famous.
And then there is me. Katerina Vasin. A very ordinary girl who is definitely not rich.
My parents shipped me off to an American boarding school, but I can’t figure out why I’m here. Or how they’re paying for it. I have an ordinary family and an ordinary life.
Or so I thought.
As it turns out, my family isn’t so ordinary.
Life just got a bit more complicated.
This is the first book in the New Hope Academy Series.
Book 1 Fate
Book 2 Luck
Book 3 Fame
Book 4 Wish (coming soon!)

I stopped reading this about 30% of the way through. Frankly, the book is...awkward.The idea of it is cute, but the execution needs a ton of work. First of all, the book is desperately in need of an editor. At first, I thought the weird grammatical quirks were because our main character was from Russia. Perhaps because English wasn't her first language? But no, the author explains over and over again that our character speaks English exclusively at home. Later, when our American characters began speaking with the same slaughtered grammar, I realized I was giving the author too much credit.
Editor needed, please!
The plot itself becomes ridiculous. Even YA novels need some logic and this has none. It's just a tangled mess of ideas with no cohesion.
And, oddly, just as you start finding out about assassination plots and dead bodies, the author has a come to Jesus moment and begins her Christian testimony. The fact that she loves Jesus and is go go Christian is great, but why throw this into the book all of a sudden? It's mind boggling.
The book was a free download when I got it, but it is NOT ready for publication. It needs an Editor's keen eye and some beta readers who can point out plot implausibilities.

Fate New Hope Academy Book 1 eBook Scarlett Haven Reviews
This is hard for me because I really liked this series for the not part. My biggest complaint is with the last book. It feels unfinished. Yes most of the action/ mystery was cleared up but there were still things left unfinished. Yes I get that there is going to be another book from a new characters POV but that is the problem unless it is going to be from Tristan's POV these characters still have a story to finish in my opinion. My problem with the series as a whole was some editing mistakes. Which I don't take stars away unless it is just atrocious which this was not. But I mention it because I know some people make a big deal out of it. So if this is a pet peeve of yours beware. I did really like the plot, characters, and settmgs (locations). I enjoyed this on the whole but I am disappointed that the author chose to end these characters story to soon.
I did end up reading the whole series. I liked the premise, and while there was some mention about religion it wasn't overbearing. It was the h talking about her religious beliefs, and that was really it. There were a lot of simple editing errors that should have been caught. Because the author wrote 4 episodes a lot of the 1st part in each book was a recap. When each episode is only about 100 pages long that doesn't leave much for a story. It would be better for the author to just write 1 book and charge 2.99.
I liked the story, it was different and very interesting. I wish that the author got more editors/beta readings going through it to get out simple mistakes. I also wish that there was more character development. The HEA was sweet, and it was a clean romance.
Lately, I discovered YA author Scarlett Haven and had been reading through her different series. New Hope Academy takes us into the life of Katerina Vasin. Katerina is half Russian and half British. Her family or what remains of her family as one of her brothers Eduardo was recently killed in a car accident is still in Russia, whereas Katerina has been shipped off to boarding school in America. New Hope Academy is the boarding school for the Rich and Famous. Katerina doesn't know why she is here, as her family is definitely not rich and her dad is an Engineer for an engineering company. However, Katerina is about to discover everything she knew about her father was a lie and that in the world of Russia he is the most powerful man alive. In Russia, Katerina never had a boyfriend, but here she has captured the attention of several guys including Damon - the President's son. Is it fate that landed Katerina in the sight of Damon or simply a coincidence? Find out in Episode #1 of the New Hope Academy series by Scarlett Haven.
I feel like this could've been a lot more interesting if the main character hadn't been so unlikable. Now, I'm fine with heroines who aren't all sugar and spice, but you have to balance that kind of negativity with something interesting… Wit, intelligence, something.
Katarina's only personality traits seem to be that she is judgemental, aloof, and cold to the people who somehow find it within themselves to welcome her wholeheartedly into their social circle. I had Bella Swan flashbacks, but unlike the Twilight-verse, I just couldn't get into the author's world.
Unfortunately, this seems to be something that we see in YA a lot an interesting premise with a dull-as-dirt heroine whose only identifiable personally traits are uninteresting or unpleasant. I love the idea of an episodic, mysterious drama, but just couldn't get behind Katarina's voice.
