Jessie Boone is a self proclaimed bad boy and doesn’t march to the beat of anyone’s drum, but his own. Growing up in less than desirable circumstances has made him no stranger to the hard knock life and his determination to leave it behind is fierce. When he finds himself transferred to East Franklin High School, he sees his opportunity to use his athletic ability to snag a college football scholarship, but Forbes Henderson, the player Jessie means to replace isn’t giving up his spot willingly. In fact, Forbes is willing to go to extreme measures to retain his place as first string quarterback. When Forbes’ malicious plan to injure his replacement fails, Jessie is furious and determined to show him he messed with the wrong person; not only is he going to take the position of first string quarterback, he’s going to take his girl, too.
Claire Deveraux is perfection at it’s best. She is beautiful, intelligent and unaware she just became Jessie Boone’s conquest as revenge against her boyfriend, Forbes Henderson. Like her flawless performance as the perfect daughter and student, Claire’s production of being the perfect girlfriend has everyone fooled, except Jessie Boone, and she fears this tattooed bad boy will see her secret desire to explore his crude threats and promises to rock her perfect world. If she decides to give in to one uninhibited moment with Jessie, will she learn too late that it was all an act of vengeance or will Jessie learn the taste of first love is sweeter than that of revenge?
Mary's Review:
Again, @LuvMyHootie loaned me another amazing book. No werewolves, vampires, or any other supernatural being. It was just a boy from the wrong side of the tracks that falls for a girl from the other side of the tracks.
I loved it! Georgia Cates is an amazing author who makes you root for Jessie and Claire. It is not just one of those tragic love stories either. Do not get me wrong, there are parts in this book that I definitely teared up for Jessie but at the same time I just held on to hope until the end.
I enjoyed every twist and turn that Georgia Cates put me through for this book. I enjoyed the struggles of Jessie's and Claire's relationship and could not wait until I turned the page to read more.
I would suggest that if you want to read a really good love story, this is the book for you!
Thanks for your awesome review and for featuring me on your blog. I'm so glad you enjoyed Going Under.
