Description
??????????????
An irresistible, juicy contemporary novel based on the TikTok phenomenon #BamaRushTok-about four sorority sisters brought back to the top-tier house they ruled at the University of Alabama, when secrets they'd thought long buried threaten to resurface.Four sorority sisters. Each with dark secrets. They must stop the unexpected opening of a time capsule created as part of a sorority rush ritual that was supposed to hold their deepest secrets buried forever...
Five years after they thought they'd said goodbye forever, a group of sorority sisters find themselves back at the University of Alabama for Rush Week. Some return to rekindle their friendships, and others to keep long silent secrets from being exhumed. Unbeknownst to them at the time, the infamous "Spill Book" they wrote confessions in as a trust (hazing) exercise over the years was placed into a time capsule-now it's been stolen, and the anonymous thief is threatening to expose them all on Bid Day.
Rush Week is a juicy, wild, drama-packed novel filled with good-and not so good-girls behaving badly, dark humor, and sexy scandals. As the sisters navigate their present and not-so-distant past, unbreakable bonds of friendship are put to the test, and regrettable mistakes threaten to change everything if exposed. But perhaps if they confess their sins to each other, they can begin to mend not only themselves, but their sisterhood- before the world finds out just how wicked they are.
Perfect for readers who love:
Dark secrets
Female friendship/sisterhood
Found family under pressure
Scandal/blackmail

Reviews / Votes
"Catty deliciousness--with a foundation of strong, true friendship. If reality TV did a show about sororities, Hollywood wishes it'd be this good!" - Christi Barth, USA Today bestselling author of Will You (Pretend) Marry Me"Behind the charming southern facade of the University of Alabama, RUSH WEEK unveils the cutthroat side of sorority life, where nothing is ever as sweet as it seems. With intriguing characters and raucous scenarios, Knight explores the toxic rivalries that can infiltrate the Greek system. From mean girls who will stop at nothing to secure their place to the undercurrents of ambition and betrayal, this story pulls back the curtain on a secret world where the price of belonging can be more than these college girls ever bargained for."
- Julie Cantrell, New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author of Perennials
"RUSH WEEK is an absolute must read for summer! Brandon expertly balances the sweetness of sorority life-the bonds of sisterhood, the nostalgia of college days-with dark shadows that hide sinister secrets. Perfect for fans of #BamaRushTok and Pretty Little Liars, readers will find themselves on the edge of their seats as Brooklyn, Taylor, Annabelle and Asana face their most ominous truths and discover if sisterhood is forever or just as disposable as faded letters on an old t-shirt."
- Joy Callaway, international bestselling author of Sing Me Home to Carolina
