Scandalous Series (starting with Bailey and The Bad Boy) by R. Linda - Starting March 7th, 2018

[Jennifer]

Book One Description: It’s the last day of school, and everyone is excited for the big summer leading up to our senior year. I was too… until my heart was ripped out of my chest.

As if getting dumped wasn’t bad enough, I’m forced to endure the humiliation of witnessing my ex-boyfriend flaunt his new girl — who also happens to be my now ex-best friend — all over town. Double whammy.

Now I’m the pathetic ex-girlfriend left gutted, heartbroken, and nose deep in a bucket of ice cream. I’m doomed to spend the summer sulking over a guy who thought I was predictable and bad in bed.

So, when I get an offer guaranteeing me some well-deserved payback, of course I’m going to take it. Besides, the plan is simple. Pretend like I’m dating Ryder, the town’s popular bad boy, and make my ex wallow in a pit of jealousy and regret. It’s perfect.

I mean… what could possibly go wrong?

[Rae]

Starting a little early!!!

[Rae]

This book is going to make me hurl... seriously. I hate them all.

[Rae]

Chapter 1-7 (view spoiler)[ Please someone tell me what the purpose of this is? So we have Ryder who is supposed to be a badass who for some unknown reason hates Chace, Bailey's ex.
Bailey is still heartbroken after a 2 year relationship with Chace who is now with her ex-bestfriend. But so far in the plot section all i have is Ryder and Bailey playing pretend. (hide spoiler)]

[Rae]

Chapter 8-12 (view spoiler)[ Oh look more kissing... this is going noooowhere!!! I am sorry, Baliey is way better than me, I would have not just let Indie come back and be my friend again. (hide spoiler)]

[Rae]

Chapter 13-25(view spoiler)[ But why did it take 25 chapters for this to get juicy? And How did Chace not know this was going to blow up in his face? I mean seriously he is her brother?? (hide spoiler)]

[Rae]

Chapter 26-fin (view spoiler)[ This book hurts my head soo much. Oh boy, but Chace is a grade A jerk!!! I hope someone sticks red hot pokers in his pee hole for even suggesting that!! (hide spoiler)]

[Jennifer]

I'm a little afraid to start this after Rae's comments.

[Alaina]

Chapter 6: (view spoiler)[uhh okay.so she likes kissing ryder.. but I still don't understand why her ex would be jealous?? what the hell went down between ryder and chace? also Christina sucks being a best friend btw. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 12: (view spoiler)[Super random that Chace jumped him.. ugh I don't even care at this point. We all know that they are going to be an item for real - right? So can that just happen and the book can be over with? (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 18: (view spoiler)[Christina is bat shit crazy...right? (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 24: (view spoiler)[weird I was definitely think that a kid might be involved..glad it’s not his..but how come no one noticed he had a twin?!? (hide spoiler)]
Finished: (view spoiler)[that’s how it’s going to end?!? Really?!? Ugh! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Chapter 6: (view spoiler)[I love jack. He’s hilarious. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 12: (view spoiler)[can he stop acting like a pussy and just confess his undying love for her already?!? Ughh (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 18: (view spoiler)[I mean Nate knows so it’s not really surprising anymore. Plus the parents probably know. Hell. Everyone knows in the hotel how these two feel. (hide spoiler)]
Chapter 24: (view spoiler)[lol at his mom. Go big or go home. I always say that. (hide spoiler)]
Finished: (view spoiler)[aw I’m gonna miss jack. Glad they all sort of got a happy ending? I also guess I’m excited to find out what exactly went down between Harper and Brody. I wonder what happened between Harper and Nate but I also thought Nate liked Ryder’s sister..I’m all over the place with these books now. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 6: I find Bailey's voice a little bit anoying. And the story is very predictable (view spoiler)[ Christina and Chase bring together, for example (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 24: It is a serious plot hole...I mean nobody knows her?!!! (view spoiler)[ I thought that Ryder was in love with a girl and Chase stole her and left her pregnant and Ryder took care of her and the baby. So, the girl stollen part is kind of true but a twin sister nobody remember...came on, Linda R!!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

The second book wasn't that much better.. but hey more points!

[María]

I find the second book a little more apealing...I don't know why, it had a lot of bad cliches too

Chapter 8: It's nice that this book had two point of view Indie and Linc. And the plot of the gay friend acting like a boyfriend is not new but he is in fact very funny being The Jocker.

Chapter 18: Right! (view spoiler)[ The only one confused is Linc!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Jennifer]

Ch 8 - (view spoiler)[I like how things are developing w/Ryder and Bailey. He isn't such a bad guy. I ship them.

I love how Mrs. R was so loyal. "Don't get any blood on my floor." (hide spoiler)]
Ch 14 - (view spoiler)[ I think it is funny how Bailey is so anxious around Chace and Christina but when really cornered, she puts them right in their places. (hide spoiler)]
Ch 21 - (view spoiler)[Aw, prom king and queen, and sex. So freaking cute. BUT, I really wish he would just tell her already why he's been gone.
BTW - best mom ever! (hide spoiler)]
Finished - (view spoiler)[ First - wtf! She's going to have to room with Christina at uni? I'd be marching myself right over to campus housing and refusing. I wonder if we will get to see how it plays out in the second book since the focus is supposed to be on Indie??
2nd - we knew Chace was going to be the asshole in whatever scenario came up between Ryder and him - but I was even a little surprised at just how much of an asshole he and his family were. They got what they deserved being run out of town. (hide spoiler)]
