"*WARNING THIS REVIEW WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS: PULLED COVER IMAGE OUT OF TBR JAR* This is really 3.5 stars but I'm not going to round it up. This is my 2nd read but Elle Kennedy, and I will say The Deal was way better. I'm stilling planning on continuing the off campus series, but I wanted to give this one a try. It honestly was good at the beginning, meeting Fenn and his dad, along with our main character RJ and his mom. Like I said the beginning wasn't bad, it was until we met the other characters that kind of sucked lol. I wasn't expecting multiple povs, and I was happy to get more than 2 but I wished it was just between RJ and Sloane. I liked her pov, it was nice to read a character who isn't so mushy and romantic lol. But I could've gone without Lawson and his chapters. I didn't think this story needed a student/teacher(s) relationship brought in, his "relationships" with both men and women were okay to hear from others but just not in explicit detail. I mean come on elle!! There was a lot of talk like that throughout the whole book and the actual spice didn't happen until about 200 pages in, which I'm not complaining, I actually liked the pacing of that but yet it was a bit too soon for RJ and Sloane to fall in love and hookup. But I liked their sincerity, it kind of felt genuine for prep high schoolers lol. Also, I honestly think the whole deal with Fenn and Sloane sleeping with each other before either of them knew RJ seemed unnecessary drama. I mean sure every book needs a third act breakup but really?Now the whole mystery with Casey was bugging me!! I for sure thought Silas had something to do with it, because his character/chapters seemed a bit shady to me and it wasn't because he liked Sloane. But then, Fenn kept trying to say certain things, and I'm like "Okay he definitely had something to do with it" turns out I was right! But I feel like he was covering up for his best friend, I can't remember his name but it's Lucas's brothe. Continue on Goodreads!"

"3.5/5. It would have been way better with less POV. i loved the drama and RJ and Sloane relationship. AND WHAT WAS THAT CLIFFHANGER ??? "

"My kind of teen novel. This one reminds a whole lot of Gossip girl and I didn't even watch the show. Loved all the characters, the banter, and the plot. 5/5 stars!!!"

"Very good. Honestly I heard ppl saying this was the best book they ever read and tbh I don’t agree with that but still it was very very good, just not THAT good. I love the characters and how they’re like soft spot for eachother and the multiple povs is v v interesting. I fw this book a lot "

"Gotta love a rich girl/loner guy prep story:)). I thought the multiple povs were a bit iffy and would’ve preferred just Sloane and RJ. Though I was surprised it ended with a cliffhanger…I kind of wish Sloane and RJ had a complete and cute ending in this. "

"Great teen romance drama. Was not predictable which was refreshing. Did end on a cliffhanger though. "

"Talk about a twist! The 3 different view points can be confusing at first but then it flows! Amazing writing! If you like romance with some mystery I highly recommend this one! "

"3.5 Rounding up to 4.<br/><br/>There were a lot of POVs in this book but there wasn't a sufficiently diverse set of voices so it was difficult to tell who was who. <br/>"
