I was a fan of book one, but this one didn’t do it for me.  The main character, Jessica who we loved to hate in book one, practically stalked her ex-boyfriend Taylor the ENTIRE book begging him to tell her why he broke up with her their senior year in high school.  He had left her the minute he found out he had a full scholarship to Ohio State and after hooking up with her best friend Mallory there for a month, proceeded to hook up with every blond bimbo the school had.  We know from Guys are Props that Jessica was damaged by this unexpected break-up and that she slept around to numb the pain, so when Taylor FINALLY explains why he dumped her, it was NOT GOOD ENOUGH.Jessica was so manipulative in book one and so clinging in this book, that I never really did like her.  She did love Taylor even before he became a hottie which makes me mad at the excuse he gave her for the break-up.  College is known for being the Place kids “find” themselves in and Taylor was hoping Jessica would find who she was.  Unfortunately he was unwilling to wait or love her enough to go through that with her.  They both slept with a lot of people creating emptiness and really bad memories.  It is honestly just really sad and STUPID.So no, I didn’t enjoy this story even with its HEA.  It was a lot of angst for no good reason and a lot of very conditional love and a lot of betrayal.  There was no cameos from any of the characters in the previous book or any information on how they are doing.I enjoyed Seymour’s style and would read another book by her. There was some f-word and some pretty descriptive sex and the VERY end.Would I/Did I buy it? Yes (.99)Would I read it again?  NoWould I recommend it to friends? No
