Loved this book. Sam at Public made things nuts. This was one book where it got a little over the top. I might consider that this series has "jumped the shark" that being said, I did still enjoy it. I'm just not sure that what they did to Kate was that bad. I was expecting much, much worse. I mean considering what they did to Analise when she was mean to Sam I was expecting something more physical. I guess taking away everything Kate loved was terrible for her, because she didn't have alot. Still it just seemed weird.

4.5 stars, because I think Sams life is way too dramatic. She needs to move pronto! I'm actually excited to see the next book as the ending was something I picked up on myself. And I actually want that to happen but it probably won't stick. Dang

WOW, this book was drama-filled. I loved every damn moment of it! Sam really kicked ass, literally and figuratively, she was awesome. Tijan never ceases to amaze me with her writing skills and how developed this plot can be. The schools Fallen Crest Public is definitely different then Fallen Crest Academy, that's for sure. At the Academy, all the girl's would stab you behind your back while at Public, they just go up in front of you and make sure you know you're hated. Yikes. I really did feel for Sam in this one because she basically was a repeat of what happened to Marissa years back. Which can I just say how nice it is to finally hear the whole story of what happened and who was involved! We also get to meet Tate's old best friend, Heather, who is just awesome!!! I loved Heather so much she really made the book. Also, one word- Tate. Herself.
We actually get to see and get to know more about other characters like, Budd and Brett Broudou. Clearly one of them has a soft spot for the new waitress at Heather's family bar, yet little do they know it's Mason Kade's very own girlfriend ;) -DRAMA-
Some intense things happen in this book where Sam's own life in endangered towards the end, which is just scary. I mean, the high school drama literally got turned into physically life threatening and it's just an abundance of craziness. Mason and Sam stay strong together for the most part and they do have equally romantic and sexy scenes, which is much appreciated Tijan, so thank you for that!
This book, all in all, was very unpredictable because Tijan will go to any extreme no matter the case! This was a very good book and so drama filled, every page had something important happening. AMAZING!!!

I don't know how you do it but thank God you do!! What can I say about this amazing book? I mean seriously, this series just keeps getter better and better. I mean we finally got inside of Mason's head and let me just say if anyone ever doubted his love for Sam they should go kick rocks!! This book had everything you could ask for; from drama to love to mean girls. Seriously, it was that good. I don't want to give to much away, but Kate and her crew makes a splash, Mason does certain actions (for a reason) but it still makes your heart beat more than it should, Sam is back to kicking butt, No Analise in this book but she is mentioned in the end, and I am glad there was no Becky, Adam, Jessica, and Lydia in this book because they all annoyed me!! I felt Becky was a flake and doesn't deserve Sam's friendship. Logan is Logan and you love him more in this book; I really want him to have his "it" girl but after reading the ending, and yes people it is a cliffhanger it broke my heart! I was hoping it would not come to this but it has. My only plea is to please please dont make Sam choose or have a love triangle!!! Mason and Sam fits perfectly they're eachother anchor and their love for eachother is soo strong and I would hate for Mason to be hurt and Logan as well. I pray that whatever feelings Logan has for Sam it is misunderstood for a longing he always wanted in Tate (the fool) but never got and is jealous of the relationship of Mason and Sam but in a I wish I had that not I want Sam type of thing. Sigh.... Tijan why oh why do you continue to torture us with your amazing writing and characters.

I went into this book being very excited for the story. I had reread the previous books to prepare and was itching to find out what came next. I was both disappointed and not.
It has been no secret that Mason and Samantha have a lot of issues between themselves and with the outside world. This book did as expected and really expanded on those issues and delved right into their chaotic lives. I was really happy that pretty much every single one of their issues was addressed into some manner. As I'm reading my book, and the see the pages start dwindling, I found myself feeling a bit unsure of the book. If felt like an ending, but I just wasn't sure if everything was fully addressed to a point that pleased me. However, by the very end, it was obvious that another book was to come, and for the first time in this entire series, I wasn't excited to read the next book. I'm not really sure where all there is left to go, and because of that, I'm scared there will be no end, and this will be a series that goes on forever. I like foreseeable endings in my series.
As always, this book was a huge scoop of drama with sprinkles on top. It's so dramatic that it adds a nice suspense, but it is also so dramatic that I feel like a need a break when it is all over with.
But overall, I'm curious to see where Tijan will take this next.
