I felt no connection with Hunter and Demi. The Briar U series has been a lot of fun so far and I really enjoyed Summer and Brenna's books, but I found myself really struggling to get through this one. I absolutely love the Off-Campus series and those books hold a special place in my heart. I never thought I'd be sitting down and writing a two star review for this book. I’ll probably re-read The Deal before the year ends but I will take a break from her. It’s just sad, okay? I will, of course, go back to Elle’s books. I used to laugh, cry and swoon over the characters and Hannah, Grace, Allie and Sabrina are so so amazing and while Summer, Brenna and Demi had potential, they were underdeveloped. I’m always way more interested in what makes a character the way they are and ups and downs and the growth… that’s what I like the most in Contemporary and that’s what I got with the Off-Campus series and didn’t get from Briar U. The Risk and The Play have static characters and maybe some people like that but I don’t.
The Chase was a bit better at that but I ended up not liking Fitz that much. That is what, I feel, is missing in this new series. And that comes with both MCs having struggles that need to be worked on and flaws and insecurities and by the end of the book, they are the best versions of themselves. There was this warm feeling all over the books and while there are books within the series I like more than others, I felt the deep emotions in all four books. With the first series, Garrett, Logan, Tucker and Dean… they were friends. I don’t like comparing but there’s a vast difference between the Briar series and the Off-Campus. Well, I think it’s time Elle and I take a break.Īfter wondering what was it that I didn’t like about this book, it came very clear the lack of friendship. Now I just have to convince my body-and my heart. Our backgrounds are too different, our goals aren’t aligned, and her parents hate my guts. We’re paired up on a yearlong school project, but I’m confident I can resist her.
Her smart mouth is hot as hell, and so is the rest of her, but the fact that she’s got a boyfriend eliminates the temptation to touch her.Įxcept three months into our friendship, Demi is single and looking for a rebound.Īvoiding her is impossible. And I won’t lie-my new classmate Demi Davis is one cool chick. Which means that I, Hunter Davenport, am officially going celibate…no matter how hard that makes things.īut there’s nothing in the rulebook that says I can’t be friends with a woman. As the new team captain, I need a new philosophy: hockey and school now, women later. What I learned after last year’s distractions cost my hockey team our entire season? No more screwing up.
