5 Stars ★★★★★

Blurb ~ Sam's first day at Fallen Crest Public doesn't go well. Some girls want to be her. Some girls want to destroy her. And some just don't like her. All in all, despite being protected by Mason and Logan, it's still only the strong survive. Sam will not only have to survive, she needs to learn how to conquer too, but there's another battle growing. Things are about to come to a disastrous end between the towns, Roussou and Fallen Crest. Sam's other main dilemma? Keeping Mason and Logan from getting arrested or hospitalized.

My Review 

Can we say Drama??? Man, Oh, man, this series always packs a punch and Fallen Crest Public was no different. I am so in love with Mason, Logan and Sam, Tijan could write an entire chapter of them going to the bathroom and I would devour it like a turkey at Thanksgiving… And I condone, Tijan on not using cliffhangers in this series that certainly makes it so much better. But heaven help me that final line is staying with me and I NEED Fallen Fourth Down like yesterday.

The gang is back and of course starting a new school year will add even more theatrics to their otherwise outrageous lives. Mason is trying to protect Sam from his enemies and new schoolmates, as this semester Sam is no longer attending the Academy with the stuffy rich kids, this year she’s slumming it at the public school. And what a change it is for Sam. I’ll admit that even though I graduated from a school with 2000+ students, my school never held such evil backstabbing whores. If somebody didn’t like you, you’d get jumped or straight up punched in the face. Not at Fallen Crest Public. These kids are vindictive and just plain cruel. And even though Sam is enemy number one, she doesn’t sit back and let anyone walk all over her. Hell, we already know she has an appreciation for setting cars on fire, so don’t be surprised if Sam reaches her boiling point and things start blowing up.

There weren’t things I disliked per se. More like characters I wanted to strangle and drop in the ocean, such as Tate and the bitch squad leader Kate. How Logan and Mason could ever stand those girls, even to get their rocks off surprises me.  Even Nate seemed sketchy this time around, and the relationship between the group is still strained as ever. Logan has no qualms about defending their family trio and kicking outsiders out like Nate is his top priority.

I was a little disappointed in Mason. Honestly considering the evilness of Kate, I wanted to see the
Kade brothers steamroll her. Sure they get their revenge but it seemed tame considering their pasts. But he redeemed himself with his undying love for Sam and just being a plain ol’ sweetheart, calling her the love of his life and whatnot, total Aww moments.

This is the last year the three will be together at school. Mason is graduating and Sam is afraid life and especially their relationship will change. Obviously time will tell with this one, but I am still hoping all those interloping bitches can mind their business enough and let these guys alone. With crazy parents and all the teen drama they can handle I can only hope their lives calm down at some point.

Like the rest of the series I loved this book. I was glad Sam got to let loose in this one, even if she was tormented and in many ways a victim. Those Kade brothers are so overprotective I can’t believe there are actually people out there with balls big enough to take them on.  Fans of this series will not be surprised and as usual the last page will leave you wanting and needing more. Oh and on a side note, we finally get some Mason POV, totally went gaga over that, it was a nice change for the stories and added another dynamic that really helped us understand his mind and their relationship from his side of things as well. Fallen Fourth Down, please hurry and get written cause this year already sucks without you.  

HAPPY READING!!!
