Wreck My Plans by Kelsey Clayton
4.0
Tye knows how to stick up for herself. But as I watch this story unfold, I had to wonder if she takes things a little too far. Carter is all about football and his friends. He’s also one to turn the other cheek.
This story turned my idea of a bully romance on its head. In books past it has always been the male character being a bully to the female character. This time around, the author has flipped it around. Usually, I go in not liking the male character very much until I see if he is redeemable or not. Again, this time is different. I had no trouble disliking Tye. She seemed like nothing but a spoiled brat who needed an attitude adjustment.
Our author created a secondary character, Noah, who seems to see something in her that I don’t. He’s one of the main reasons that I kept waiting to see where this story was going. Another reason was because I wanted to see how much Carter was going to put up with before things came to blows. Parts of this tale are sad too – not tears sad but heart sad.
It was interesting to watch the author go about changing my mind on how I feel about Tye. Sorry thing is, it took most of the story to accomplish that – just means she’s good at what she does. Just like a magician goes about having an audience believe the impossible, so does the author. I also think she showed great restraint because this story could have turned very dark.
Something of a reminder is that women can be just as nasty, and dirty, as men can be. They can have the same evil thoughts, and deeds, as their counterparts. Not all women are as innocent as they appear to be. By not taking the step off the cliff, brought things back in line until the author ended her story which has now left me in suspense. There were times that I really didn’t like what I saw happening but Carter, and Noah, had me wanting to give them a chance. And I’m glad I did since now I can’t wait for the next book to come out.
I was not compensated nor was I required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.
