Barrett "Breaker" Davenport is a lacrosse player and one of the most powerful boys at school. He has had feelings for Delaney for a long time but doesn't feel like he can have a normal relationship and constantly pushes Delaney away.
Delaney Chambers is best friends with Palmer and has begun dating Tripp DuPont after going home to escape from Breaker. She knows she isn't over Breaker but also knows that he will always push her away and won't let her get close to him, although they both care about each other.
When Tripp challenges Breaker to run a gauntlet in Delaney's honor will he accept and will Delaney be able to figure out which one of them truly has her back?
This is such an amazing series!!!
Breaker is such a jerk but we know from the last book how much he truly cares about Delaney even if he doesn't want anybody else to know. I love his relationship with Palmer and the close bond that they share as well as his relationship with his best friends Marek, Dixon and Byron.
Delaney is interesting as she really can't help how she feels about Breaker yet she continues to date Tripp, even though she gradually sees a different side of him with how he treats certain people, like her staff. Yet she also very grateful that he was there for her when she needed a friend which seems to make her feel a certain guilt towards him.
The gauntlet battle was interesting in that Tripp seemed to know things about Breaker that he shouldn't and that seemed to add more mystery into the book. My jaw was on the ground so many times and my heart was seriously broken so many times reading this!!
When Breaker went to see his aunt and sisters my heart broke a little as you start learning about certain things and it really made sense on why Breaker was so guarded. I loved that he slowly began to repair the relationships as they were ultimately so important to him.
When Delaney found out certain things about what was going on with her family I felt terrible for her as I knew things would only get worse which didn't seem possible.
I found Madison super interesting and I hope we get a lot more of her in the future.
At a certain point we learn about other things happening in the "background" and my jaw hit the ground as things came together! OMG!!!
The way things ended was just fantastic but when we learn about a possible weak link it's setting up the next book and I can't wait!!!
5 Stars
