***I received an ARC of this book to provide an honest review***

Normally when I read YA I go for the intense stuff. I wasn't sure what kinda vibe PBMD would have, but I figured I'd give it a try. It turned out to be a lot more light-hearted and silly than I'd anticipated, but that isn't a bad thing.

<b>"All that gym time required of my CIA training hasn't hurt it either, but damn, these girls are jockin' me."</b>

Teenage CIA operative "Peter Smith" ends up in a Colorado boarding school chasing down a hacker. After a photo of him taken by a classmate goes viral Peter's cover is blown. Suddenly there's a LOT going on at his school - in the form of repelling mercenaries, kidnapping, spies, counter-spies and a handful of near-death experiences..for everyone. And a little romance.

This is a really cute read.

Sure, you sometimes need to turn off your logic sensors. Every so often your brain pops in and reminds you of the fact that the African American Teenage Spy working for the CIA who speaks three languages and manages to somehow convince Ukrainian mobsters that he’s a Ukrainian Speaking Tunisian Food Deliver Boy is (whew!) slightly unbelievable.

But, give it a minute because soon you just won’t care. You’ll be too busy enjoying the story. It’s fun, suspenseful, and a little bit silly. And Prettyboy is pretty cool.

This is an over the top adventure – a pure fun adrenaline rush – and I’m very glad I got to read it!
