Review: DROPOUT by Jamie Schlosser

JIMMY
Over the past year, I’ve been called a lot of things. Slacker. Troublemaker. Party animal.
I thought I was on top of the world. Turns out, I was pretty close to rock bottom.
Now I have a new title: college dropout.
Talk about a reality check.
But I’ve got a chance to redeem myself. One summer to turn things around. Two months to prove I’m not a complete f*ck-up.
It’s time to change.
I want to get back to being one of the good guys.

MACKENNA
I have everything I need to live out my dream of being a reclusive songwriter—my guitar, my notebook, and blissful silence.
At least, I did until Jimmy moved in next door.
With tattoos, piercings, and mischievous green eyes, he’s got bad news written all over him. And last time I got with a bad boy, it ended horribly.
Jimmy makes me feel things I shouldn’t feel. Want things I shouldn’t want. He’s a hazard to my carefully laid plans.
But he’s only here for two months.
I can resist him...right?

REVIEW

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I swear this series is just so sweet. I can’t remember reading about characters that were so entirely wholesome and cute and sexy and interesting all at the same time. This story was a bit different from the previous stories of the series in that Mackenna had a bit of a suspenseful story to add to the mix. As a teen, she was abused and then terrorized by her boyfriend. Lucky to be alive, she leaves town to put herself back together and to get away from the small-town judgment. She finds success and returns to be close to her family once again. Jimmy was your typical hot boy next door. He went off to college and did what quite a few of us do when we go away and have our first taste of freedom - squandered it. His parents then send him off to his grandmother’s for the summer to get his head back on straight. Behave and they’ll help him out with his future choices.

I really liked these characters. Their first meeting was absolutely hilarious and set the tone for the rest of their relationship. It was fun, sincere, and incredibly heartwarming, from beginning to end. I’m absolutely loving these stories, which only serve to continue giving me hope that there’s a good guy out there for each and every one of us!
