Elle Kennedy is one of the best at taking expectations and tropes and turning them into surprising, complex deliciousness. On the surface this looks like the typical nerd-falls-for-princess story, but both main characters are so much more than their labels. As usual, this super slow burn romance gave me all sorts of butterflies, and I loved watching both characters grow and progress both personally and as a couple. I also love how Kennedy brings attention to and calls out social issues and unabashedly promotes feminism. With the added bonus of revisiting familiar characters from the Off-Campus series, this was such a pleasure to read. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Fiction.
Romance.
HTML: A sexy standalone novel from New York Times and international bestselling author Elle Kennedy! Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there's no logical reason why I'm so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don't usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I'm flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn't help that he's buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we're roommates? I suppose it doesn't matter. Fitzy has made it clear he's not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I'm not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I'm not about to start. I've got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he's missing? He knows where to find me. .Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

Summer and Colin’s story had a little bit of a jump start in The Score when Summer first lays eyes on Fitz and knows she wants him. While Fitz feels the same way, for him - Summer is out of the question. They are just too different and he can’t see past the “fluff” that she presents to the world.
There were a few things that bugged me about this book, which may be why I don’t intend to continue the series. First, for being presented as a carefree, accepting, lovable guy, Fitz is extremely judgmental. The second thing that irked me was how much Summer played with another character's feelings (sentence changed to remove spoiler). The back and forth between Fitz and Summer also felt a little drawn out.
Other than those to things, the rest of the book was ok at best. Once they worked things out, Fitz and Summer were pretty cute together and I loved how protective they were of each other.
Would I recommend the Off Campus series? Without a doubt! Would I recommend the Briar U series, as of right now no but I would tell anyone to read at least the first two books before making a final judgement call. I may take my own advice at some point. Only time will tell. ( )
