Crush by Lacey Weatherford
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.
First Line:"It was magical."
I kept pushing myself to read this even though I wanted to mark it dnf very early on only reason I kept reading is because of the high ratings it has received and I wanted to know Hunters big secret but I'm officially done trying to finish it. At this point I've pretty much figured out what his secret is even though it hasn't technically been revealed yet but it's pretty predictable. My biggest issue was the writing which was pretty bad and the dialogue...especially the dialogue it didn't feel natural, more forced then anything.
I didn't care for the characters. There has been no character development and all the characters are very one dimensional. The book also had one thing I can't stand which is insta-love. Then there is supposed to be this intense chemistry between Cami and Hunter but all those moments that should be swoon-worthy fell flat for me.
Crush just isn't for me and I'm still a little confused on how this book has such high ratings.
