Resisting the Rebel

Awesome YA sweet read. The characters of Mandy and Caleb are both incredible and I loved the slow build of their relationship. My only complaint about this book is the cover. Seriously, this needs a leather wearing bad boy on the cover! A minor complaint but still! Caleb is known as the school bad boy. People didn't mess with him and he was fine with that. Since he prefers fictional characters over actual people being a loner works for him. Mandy on the other hand is on every committee, loves people, and just wants to be accepted as she is. ADHD and all. When she goes to a party with her long time crush Gus only to be left hanging when he hooks up with miss popularity, she's surprised when Caleb comes to her rescue. Even more surprising is his proposal. Pretend to be his girlfriend to help get rid of his stalker ex and he'll help her make Gus jealous and come running back to her. Slowly Caleb finds himself being pulled into Mandy's world and surprise of all surprises, liking it and her more than he ever thought possible. Definitely a book I would recommend to everyone who enjoys a good YA read!

This was a great read. I'm a little torn on how Gus was handled. Sometimes I wish there weren't suddenly a solid reason to get over one person before moving on to the next. But this is practically a prerequisite for most fiction. Haha So I'll allow it. I do love the focus given to Caleb regarding consent. It was handled in graceful way without being in your face.

This book was so sweet, am I the only one who realised every chapter is named after a song, anyway caleb and mandy were such a cute couple I knew it wasn't fake from the start they had a spark but both of them didn't realise it until the end. Such a good book definitely recommend.
