Description
Brooding, high school quarterback, Train Everly, was on the fast track to play football at the University of South Carolina until one misstep at a party put his chances in jeopardy. Now in his senior year, he’s sworn off steady relationships. The last girl he’d fallen for tore out his heart and stomped on it with stiletto heels. But a new school year brings new students and one girl in particular, Montana Smith. He can’t seem to shake the blonde, curvy, and feisty girl who blows into computer class like a category five hurricane, causing his pulse to race for the end zone. Still, beauty, boobs, and curves are a recipe for disaster. He can’t afford to hook up with her. Not if he wants to protect his heart, and his spot on the USC football team.
Graffiti artist Montana Smith has been expelled from high school more times her mother cares to count. So when Montana gets expelled for defacing school property, Montana’s mom decides it’s time to get out of the big city and find a southern sleepy town where Montana surely can’t get into too much trouble. But the small town is ripe with temptation more than Montana or her mom even realize, especially when Montana meets the star quarterback, Train Everly. She’s drawn to his sea-green eyes, and his quiet personality. What she isn’t ready for is his moodiness that seeps under her skin so much so that she decides to make a fool of herself. But she’ll take the stares and whispers over her pathetic performance on the football field rather than tango with Train’s ex-girlfriend who will do anything to get Montana out of the picture.
As a relationship between Train and Montana ebbs and flows, both will be tempted to do things that could lead to trouble and broken hearts.
Advance Praise
"Oh man, did SB Alexander ever knock it out of the park with this one. Train and Montana were just what I needed. The chemistry between them was hot and instant. But it didn't have the typical "high school" love feel about it. It was deeper, stronger and so much more intense. Watching these two figure out how they felt about each other was hilarious at times. They pushed each other's buttons and got out of their typical comfort zones." -T&G Book Boutique

Train can give a girl whiplash, “what did you tell him? Are you going with him?” Train sounded as though he didn’t want me to go with Ferris. Train confused the hell out of me." Montana says the sweetest things to her man, “I would jump your bones right now if I weren’t tired, hungry, and waterlogged.” I liked this book, Train and Montana balanced each other out.

Montana is sassy, smart, sarcastic, and strong. She has been causing trouble and been kicked out of school after school. Her mom finally decides that a small town would be better for them. While trying to make a fresh start, Montana finds herself attracted to Train. Train is the quarterback and has sworn off girls after his ex crushed his soul. Starting his senior, he wants to focus on his game. But then the new year comes and so does Montana. She catches his attention in a big way. But Train's ex is determined to get Montana out of the picture. Will Train and Montana make it as a couple? Or will the ex ruin everything? This was a really good book. Definitely worth picking up.

I thought i may have been put off by this being set in a high school, but the realism and charisma of the characters as well as the hilarity of some of the comments made it easy to overlook. The struggle for Montana and Train to not be with each other whilst having that desire was depicted with both wit and sensitivity to that age. I loved it, great read.

Story line was interesting with some good twists.
At times I felt the characters were lacking in motivation but most of the time i could understand where they were coming from.
My biggest issues with the story, is that I really doubt that most of the 'honest, direct' conversations would take place. At times they became quite detailed and I found myself sitting there thinking 'who would really say that to their parent/friend'. These exchanges helped to quickly get to the point of how the characters were feeling without the author going into detailed mussing but I just found many of the conversation a bit non-believable.
Overall, I enjoyed it enough to keep reading to the end.
