Release Week Blitz ~ Fallen Crest Family (Fallen Crest High 2) By Tijan

 

Samantha and Mason are together. Everyone knows it. Not everyone is dealing with it. While Mason’s ready to give them the middle finger, there’s one not going away. Her mother. Threats are issued. Ultimatums are given. Even blackmail is used, but only Samantha can put a stop to Analise. However, when a trauma from her past is triggered, she may not have the courage or strength to do what’s needed. If she doesn’t, Mason’s future could be destroyed.

As usual Tijan has written a stonking great read, must admit I did not enjoy this as much as the first but I feel that is only because we were getting a lot of the background information and the laying of the foundations in the lead up to book 3.  This book is more angsty and centered around the family rather than the Kades relationships.

 

I have never wanted to commit murder so bad in my life, if I could I would have jumped into my kindle and personally killed Analise…she has got to be the most selfish, evil, disgusting, irritating mother EVER!!!! Seriously!!!! I cannot describe how much I totally loathe that woman. I actually had to stop reading, email Tijan and tell her that she has to kill her off…I was that annoyed!!! I dare anyone to differ after reading this book lol!

 

Sam and Mason are still together throughout this book so no panicking…if it was ever possible to love Mason Kade even more, it will happen in this book..this guy has morphed into the perfect boyfriend and is always there for Sam when she needs him and in this book, she needs him a lot. I actually cried when I read this bit:-

 

 “………I’m not a saint, I know that, but when I love someone, I love them with everything.”

 

….those words in that scene, bahhhhh just had me bawling. The love that he has for Sam is conveyed brilliantly through the pages, it radiates into your heart making you all warm and fuzzy…that type of I love you with everything that I am sort of love. I am sure that his feelings are reciprocated but sometimes I am worried that she is more I NEED him rather than I love him. Their sex life as usual is scorching hot and this comes across brilliantly throughout the book, the intensity and passion is there in spades.

 

I am beginning to worry how their relationship is going to survive when Mason is at Uni and Sam is left behind at high school with Logan, she is highly dependent on Mason and I sincerely hope that their relationship is strong enough to survive this separation. (Actually, I am going to beg Tijan to give these two the biggest, fluffiest, full of hearts HEA imaginable!!)

 

Logan is his usual jack the lad self during this book and he too is adorable…still playing the game but highly protective of Sam and Mason. The respect that he has for his brother shines through and they still are the infallible duo. The reputation is still there, the jealousy is still there, the parties are still there and the girls are still there. Whilst Logan still enjoys this side, Mason only has eyes for Sam.

 

Sam is still running for dear life, however, Mason has used this to her advantage and manages to get his schools running coach to take a look at her with a view to getting a full ride scholarship at Uni. By changing schools this also puts Sam closer to Logan whilst Mason is away at Uni. He is making sure she is protected.

 

Sam gets a waitressing job to try and take her mind off her family life and this introduces a whole new range of characters, as a best friend Heather is brilliant and just what Sam needs and I cannot wait to see how this relationship develops. Heather had me in hysterics.

 

All in all a brilliant read, I couldn’t put it down, devoured it in one sitting and despite being extremely angry with a certain character even she could destroy my love for this series. Seriously cannot wait for December now for Fallen Crest Public. December cannot come soon enough!!

 

And please, someone murder Analise by then….just saying!!
