Betrayed. Blindsided. Bullied. Those three words cover the story in a nutshell. The tension is palpable, and emotions run rampant. There is heartbreak, drama, as well as lots of angst and so so much anger, pain, betrayal of the worst kind and the torment is at an all-time high, at breaking point. The plot is interesting and engaging and the characters are complex. The story is captivating, and you just want to scream at people (ok more than scream) and embrace others. Betrayed. Blindsided. Bullied. Those three words are what she has had to live with for three years. Three years of hell. Three years of pain. Three years of feeling worthless. Three years of being condemned.

This was a beautiful read. All teenagers and young adults should read it. This was a morally sound plot of romance and friendship. Do you remember who your best friend was in high school? This story proves that we need to love ourseleves. The trope of best friends to enemies drives this read. The author really took their time to build the atmosphere of love and success. This is a very light enjoyable read. Perfect amount of spice. Perfectly ordinary. Perfect to get out of a slump, Five stars.

Well what can I say I was definitely blindsided by this book I thought it was going to be a happy romance about the boy next door, instead it’s an intense, emotional and gripping story of how two best friends become enemies when really they should of been more. It was well written and the characters are great. You won’t be disappointed

This book brought everything to the tale, and that is what made it so realistic as it was for me! I opened this book expecting a Rom Com with some drama, but it gave so much more, it was powerful and real as if the story was living before my very own eyes. This was a first time author for me, and most certainly will not be my last! They made a very well impression and literally have hooked me with their amazing writing!
The book was true to its word. I went into reading this book not knowing how lovely it would turn out to be. Yes, the book was not all roses and tulips, it was so much more than that! What made this book for me was the characters, they were real as the heart that is racing inside my own body. The characters went through stuff that was more than just drama or a pit pat to find one another. The pack that Brock and Krista had from very young was very realistic to my eyes, and as they aged and grew up things they went through, it happens often, I loved the author put it in there, with the sense of not every story matures happily without pain and hurt feelings. To me that was very commendable to input!
As the stuff between happens then you add to this triangle that contains them as well as Victoria (did not like her at first glance, and that opinion really stayed and I think she was written to be that way) and throw in Rylan an you got a deep engaging story. I enjoyed reading very much about these group of characters and how they would choose how to live and make choices and have to standby what they chose. The story itself as well as the characters brought on a lot of intrigue. Loved this book!
This book brought on very much enjoyment and was very remarkable in more ways than one! I loved it from start to finish. I highly recommend this book, as well as this amazing and gifted author. I look forward to reading more books by them! I know for a fact, I will surely enjoy more of their work!

This book lived up to its title. I was blindsided by the quality and the impression it left with me. Just reading the blurb had my heart rate elevated. I am one to avoid conflict but just crave it in my stories. This book had plenty of that. As well as betrayal, hurt, anger, discovery and forgiveness. This story was extremely angsty, with a lot of sweating and heart racing moments. The characters were very detailed and the reader got a very explicit look into the catty, sometimes malicious and very judgemental side of adolescence. I felt for these characters and what they went through. Stories like this leave you with thoughts that love really does beat all and if you are meant to be, then the fight to HEA is fought with determination, courage and complete stubbornness. An intricately written saga that will not be forgotten. 5 stars

This was a very unique romance. Written as senior-year in high school, I was fascinated to see the topic of bullying come up in a contemporary romance. I found that the author did a very good job of intermingling it within the story. The whole quartet of characters: Brock, Kirsa, Victoria and Rylan; were such an intriguing and integral part of the story. Victoria was quite the snot. The love triangle was a beautiful plot twist. Such a beautiful story, you really should read this. There is a bit of spice in a couple of spots but the theme of the story is one that should be told.

This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book that I picked up of hers. I enjoy her writing style as well as her attention to details. Her books pull me into the stories from the beginning. This book is no different. This is a well written story where the characters are engaging and kept me turning pages fast. This is a sports romance story that is full of romance and hard to put down. A young woman had a best friend, that is until he betrayed her. She is having a hard time getting over him until she meets Rylan and things start to change for her. Now she finds herself torn between the two. Who will she trust and will she find happiness with one of them? I enjoyed the characters’ growth throughout the plot as well as how connectable they were. They made the story entertaining to read which made it a great story. I highly recommend this book and this author.

My high school experience is nothing like I’d imagined.
Brock had been my best friend since we were four years old. We were inseparable. Or so I thought. In our early teens, our friendship started to feel like something more, something I desperately wanted.
Then I was betrayed by him, along with Victoria, the girl who had made our duo into a trio. Blindsided by the accusation that I was a traitor. Bullied and ostracized for three years, all for something I never did.
All I want to do is keep my head down and make it through senior year. I miss Brock every day, even though he has made my high school days miserable. Unlike him, I can’t just forget our past, or the bond we had. And even after three years, no guy has ever made me feel the way he did.
When Rylan arrives and becomes the new star of the football team, I finally find myself with a friend and ally. Through him, I see glimpses of my former best friend. The more I soften toward Brock, the more confused I become. My head is screaming at me to stay away, but my heart still wants him. Which one do I trust? And will I live to regret it?
T. Christensen has been addicted to reading ever since she read her first romance book in middle school. When different characters and scenes started invading her brain she would write them down and put it away. Gradually she took the steps to give them a beginning, middle, and a happily ever after. It has been a long time dream to have her stories published.has been a lifelong resident of South Dakota. Occasionally she ventures out, but being at home, with her family, is always the best place to be. Reading a romance novel is still the best reward at the end of the day.

Friends, loves, enemies – the path friendship can take when we are teens is twisted. In this book, a girl by the name of Kirsa is friends with the boy next door, Brock. They are inseparable, until one day the “third wheel” of a friend, Victoria, is caught in a compromising position with Brock. Teenage hormones got the best of those two and was the first factor towards ruining the friendship between Kirsa and Brock. A lack of communication snowballs into the two becoming enemies throughout all of high school. However, it wasn’t just being enemies, Brock vowed to make Kirsa’s life a living hell for all of high school and he didn’t disappoint. In the end, the truth always comes out, it just sucks that so many lives had to be cut down and ruined to get there.
Well, this book produced many different feelings for me in relation to my past and present. As a mother of a teen, there were parts of this book that were scary. No one person should have to go through what Kirsa had to deal with. My heart felt angry, hurt, and just wanted to reach out and hug her. However, thinking of Brock’s position, I remember being a teen and not knowing who was trustworthy, my real friend, wanted something from me, etc. All in all, I thought I enjoyed this book. While the content hit close to home, it also was realistic and provided a lot of teaching moments: communication is key to any relationship – that means listening too; everyone needs a friend and is entitled to one; and there will always be someone who rises above the bullies and takes a stand. My most favorite lesson in this book, however, is you are stronger than you think. When things seem like they can’t get worse, if you keep going, believe that you are worth it, those thoughts can lead you to get through anything, and in return you might just come out on top.
