So I haven’t read Penny Wylder previously. I struggled a bit through this story. The writing was great but it was the characters that I struggled with... Adam to be more specific. Prom King had a bit of a Mean Girl meets Carrie vibe. Sometimes the cuts are too deep to be acceptable and forgiven and I have a hard time forgiving Adam myself. I liked Olivia but I wanted so much more for her… I wanted a good revenge.

I’m having a hard time figuring out how to rate this story. The writing was fantastic. The story had real possibilities but, in the end, it fell flat for me. I just didn’t like the characters and not liking them is most of the problem. I didn’t like the situations… the needless meanness that spanned decades.


I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.

BLURB

He was the hot popular guy. I was the nerdy girl with a fantasy crush.
All of my childhood, I was invisible to Adam Carlisle. That was fine, because I was too shy, and too smart, to think I had a chance with the most popular guy in school.
Until someone crowned him prom king...
And me queen.
But it was only a cruel joke that ruined my self-esteem and broke my heart.
Ten years later and my friend begs me to attend our school reunion with her. I'm older, wiser, but still a nerd. This event is setting off my anxiety.
I want it to be over.
Then... I see him.
My prom king.
Adam is hotter than ever. But what really gets my attention?
He's staring right at me.
I'm not invisible anymore.
What happens when my fantasy crush becomes reality?

EXCERPT

There’s a commotion by the door and I look over and my whole body goes cold, then hot. Olivia Mitchell is standing in the doorway.

I didn’t think I’d ever see her again. Nobody thought we’d ever see her again. But there she is, alive and… beautiful.

And then she looks right at me. It feels like my heart stops. This song, looking at each other. It feels all too familiar, and I don’t think that I can keep still.

I glance over at Trent.
“Excuse me.”

He follows my gaze and smiles.
“It’s about time, man. Go.”

I leave my whiskey at the table, and I head straight for her. It’s like I’m being pulled, and she’s looking at me like I’m the last person she expected to see. I hope that I’m not the last person that she wanted to see. Olivia. Ollie. It’s been a long time, and there are emotions welling up inside my chest that I haven’t examined in a long time.

The first step is to say hello, Adam.
Don’t get ahead of yourself.

It’s shallow, but I’m stunned by how gorgeous she looks. Ollie was always beautiful in a quiet way, but it’s not quiet tonight. I try to pull my eyes away from the blue dress hugging her amazing body or else my dick is going to be as hard as granite. But holy fuck do I want to look and never stop looking.

She looks away from me and suddenly I can breathe again.
