This week's Tease comes from:

Crush

by

Lacey Weatherford
 

First - The Blurb:

Cami Wimberley has a plan, and that plan includes no room for boys—especially the big time party animal, Hunter Wilder, no matter how handsome and charismatic he is. She’s beautiful, a senior, extremely talented, gets good grades, and is working her way toward her dream college to be a musical theater major. Everything is perfect.

Hunter Wilder does not want a girlfriend—that would complicate his life way too much right now. He especially doesn’t want this girl, Miss-Goody-Two-Shoes, so how come he can’t keep his eyes off her? He tries to keep her at arms length, but fate seems to keep pushing them together. Before long, it’s obvious to everyone they’re crushing on each other.

As sparks begin to fly, Hunter finds himself sinking deeper and deeper into hot water. Soon he’s scrambling to keep Cami from discovering his dark secret—one that can destroy their entire relationship.



Second - The Tease:

I closed my eyes for a second. "Forgive me," I whispered when I looked at her again. I grabbed her cheeks and pressed my lips to hers.

I know I should stop at two sentences, but I have to give you just a touch more of Cami and Hunter.

Sparks exploded at the simple contact between us, and I found myself sliding my hands down her shoulders so I could pull her closer. I wrapped both of my arms around her back and pressed against her, walking slowly forward until she was pinned against the door. Her fingers move upward, locking around behind my neck. She opened her mouth, allowing me access, and I happily invaded, licking and tasting what she offered. It was heaven.


Third - My Thoughts:

Cami is beautiful, talented and has her life planned out, that is, until she meets Hunter. Hunter, gorgeous, charismatic, and a little mysterious, appears as the typical school bad boy. But is he really? Unable to deny the attraction which occurs between them, Cami and Hunter enter a relationship, but there are consequences, some of which are more devastating than others.

Although some of the twists and turns are predictable, this is a well written and easy to read YA Contemporary Romance.
I really enjoyed Crush and recommend it to anyone who is interested in this genre.

My Rating: 5 out of 5
