So to save the crown, Natalie comes up with a terrible trick to play on Justin, just to make sure he doesn’t get the crown. After convincing Mike to help her, everything is set in place and ready to go. But little did they know, their plan is about to go terribly, terribly wrong. Mike and Natalie desperately try to cover up what happened to Justin but all the blackmail and dark secrets being to tear them apart.

The Betrayal of Natalie Hargrove will keep you on your toes throughout the entire book. Kate’s writing lets you see more of Natalie than meets the eye. This book is exciting, mysterious, creepy, and sometimes funny. I would recommend this book to any teenage girl who likes novels that catch you at the first page.
