MF - This Boy (This Boy #1) by Jenna Scott

Nothing in Camilla's life will be the same after This Boy...

Camilla dreams of the day she can leave her life behind. Saying goodbye to the mother she's never been good enough for, to the bottles there's always money for, to the bills there's never money for—and most of all, to being the help in someone else's dream home.

But the scholarship to her new private school that gives her a real chance at a future comes with one big catch—Hunter Beck.

It's his home her mother cleans. His little brother that Camilla babysits. It's his face that she dreams of at night, and his cruel voice that taunts her every day. Hunter is the most popular boy in school, and she's his favorite target. She hates him, but even more, she hates how drawn she is to him. Becoming his debate partner seems destined to end in disaster.

As she's drawn further into his world, he alternately pulls her close and pushes her away. But behind the roller coaster, Camilla senses true emotion. A man she wants to know hiding inside the boy.

She's so close to getting everything she wants. Getting into college. Leaving this town forever. She’s let nothing get in her way so far.

So why does it feel like Hunter Beck might be the boy who ruins it all?

Book One of Three
 




My Rating - 4 Stars!


This Boy is one of those books I probably enjoy more than I should. But, damn it, sometimes one just wants to fall into a world of anger and anger. This Jenna Scott book is just such a world. 

I definitely enjoy this young adult book. 

Mila and Hunter are a hot mess. With Mila and her mom working for Hunter's family, he certainly treats her like shit. 

As the layers unfold, we learn that not only is Mila's life a mess, but so is Hunter's. 

And together, the chemistry is explosiveness. 

The good? Mila is wonderful. And I adore her relationship with Hunter's brother. 

The bad? Omg. Pretty much every one else is a total jackass. Horrific parenting. Cheating. Alcoholism. Bullying. And more. 

But it's the riveting kind of bad and I didn't want to put it down 

This Boy is just the start of Mila and Hunter's story. I am excited to dive into the next book in this Jenna Scott series.
