This was another fun addition in the Rockford High series! If you are a YA reader and enjoy stories revolving around high school and teens, this is a series I highly recommend for you. You can read them as stand alone novels but I think that they're a lot more fun reading them in order. The characters interconnect in each story. Sometimes just a little bit, but the stories are all happening around the same time frame. So when you read this one, you're getting a little throwback to the first book and the bet made in it. We met Jack and Eli in the first book. Jack makes a bet with the main male character and Eli is the new kid who happens to be there and gets caught up in the bet on the side.
Destiny is a sweet character and not afraid to stand up for what is right. She's trying to make all the right choices and not understanding when things don't work out how she thinks they will by making the right choices. Hold on Destiny! Of course we as the reader know what's happening and feel for Destiny. But Eli is the one who is always there to pick up the pieces and support, help and be her friend.
Cute story, a little high school/teenage drama. But overall cute and sweet. I really am enjoying the moral messages that Victorine is adding to her stories. Not preachy but I love how all of the characters are forced with choices and then must face the consequences of those choices. There's great character growth and learning. And as a mother of teenagers I love finding books that my teenagers will truly enjoy reading, but are also seeing that life is full of choices, some hard and some easier. But that those choices are affecting everyone.
If you have teenagers who enjoy these types of stories, grab a copy for them and for you to read as well. Victorine's stories are always ones that make me laugh, smile, and sometimes cry!
Content: Clean. Nothing more than a few kisses.
I received a copy from the author. All thoughts and opinions in the review are my own.
Happy Reading!!!
