It’s very difficult to review this without spoilers, so I will just say that i liked this much better before i found out chris’ secret. It isn’t much of a mystery—they come out and tell you whats going on about a third of the way through the book. At that point, it becomes a very typical genre novel (to tell you which genre is a spoiler probably) but the book lost all elements of suspense and mystery at that point. The romance was tacked on and never seemed organic at all. I liked the boys on the baseball team but they really take a back seat to Chris’ story. I generally like this author, but this novel started much better than it ended up.

This is only a brief review as I don't want to give anything away. There are plenty of twists that caught me by surprise adding to the pure enjoyment of reading this book so I wouldn't want to take that away from anyone.
I will say that I loved this book it is a book that is extremely high up on my list of books I recommend to family and friends.
It is also going to make a great Christmas present for my step-dad!
This is the first book I have read from this author and from enjoying this one so much I will look forward to reading more of her work.

Really enjoyed this quick read. Chris Brennan is posing as a teacher and coach at the local high school, but his true identity and purpose is hidden. He is trying to infiltrate the local high school boys group to see who is most vulnerable. Lots of twists in this book.
