Review "The Peer and the Puppet by B.B. Reid"

Advance Readers Copy 

THE PUPPET

Borrow the bike. Win the race. Collect the cash. It should've been an easy job. Ran out of town with a broken leg and a lawsuit, my mother's latest flame swoops in like a knight in gilded armor. Blackwood Keep is a place I don't belong, and I'm not the only one who knows. To the boy across the hall, my savior's only son, I'm a stray looking for a bone.

He's lord of the manor.
King of the academy.
And number one on my shit list.

THE PEER

I have no intentions of becoming a happy family with the social climber and her wild daughter. A bottle of Jameson and a cracked skull gets my problem shipped to reform school, but I didn't bank on her returning.

Four's out to get even, and she almost had the perfect plan: expose the privileged kid moonlighting as a gangbanger. She's smart, but she'll have to be smarter. Sending her away won't be good enough this time. I'm going to have to tame the little troublemaker. To the girl across the hall, the one without a name, I'm nothing without my silver spoon.

She's lady of the trailer park.
Queen of the swamps.
And my new favorite pastime.


The Peer and the Puppet is a standalone romance, however, the series is one story. The plot introduced in Four and Ever's story will continue in the following novels. Content suitable for 18+.

Review:
I'm very thankfull that B.B send me an ARC. I have read book by her in the past and was looking forward to reading this book. B.B surly didn't disappoint! I read it in one sitting, couldn't put it down. I just had to know what happened next.

What is this book about:
This books is about four. Unusual name I know, for the live of me I couldn't figure out why anyone would name their daughter four but it was explained why in the book later on. Anyhow four lives with her mother Rosalyn in a small town. They are poor. Four works/helps out as a mechanic in a motor shop. She loves bikes and she loves racing. She's really good at in.
During one of her races she gets into an accident and breaks her leg. It wasn't a regular accident, someone made her fall. Her mothers uproots her live, they end up moving in with her mothers rich boyfriend. 
This is where Four meets Ever, the son of her mothers boyfriend. Ever has a huge chip on his shoulder and is quite the asshole to say the least. He is determined to make her live a living hell. Therefor she shouldn't be attracted to the prick but she is. He doesn't seem to know what he wants either. Is there more to him than just a hot prick?

What did I like about this book:
I liked the chemistry between four and ever. It was off the charts.
I really like how four stayed true to herself and stood up to Ever. She could have taken the easy way and just did what he told her to but she didn't.
I liked learning more about Ever, learning what made him do the things he does.
Their back and forth was enough to frustrate anyone haha

I do feel like there are quite allot of things that are left unresolved that I hope will be addressed in the next book. Because if they won't then it would be a bit of a let down to me. The ending came a bit abruptly and I sure didn't expect the preview for the next book in the series. But knowing B.B i'm sure it will all work out!
