Fall For Me #4
Louder Than Words
When seventeen year old Summer Baker is stalked by her obsessed ex-boyfriend she’s forced to ask for help from her secret weapon—her “bad-boy” ex-friend, Mason … but that’s a lot of ex’s. Also, Summer’s not sure her heart can take re-connecting with Mason. Mason who had once—no matter how brief of time—been her “stepbrother.” Mason with his smokin’ hotness and lingering stare.
Still, Summer is forced to call on him, and he comes to her rescue. Just like she knew he would. But the problem is: Summer has always had a secret crush on Mason. But—whoa!—suddenly he’s looking at her all hungry and longing-like. And he says all the right words to get her heart spazzing. It almost has her thinking he craves her too. Almost. But let’s face it, actions speak louder than words and Mason has put out zero action … unless you’re talking about action with other girls. He’s put out plenty of that. Grrr! He breaks girls’ hearts at lightening speed and has made-out with every hot girl at their school … that is, every hot girl except Summer. Because in Mason’s mind, Summer is off-limits. But that bites.

This one started out alright, but I lost interest really quickly, so I liked it about the same as the last two.
I'm glad I'm finished with the series now, as I didn't really enjoy any of them.

This is another sweet romantic story from Melanie Marks.
I really enjoyed it although I felt a change in the personality of one of the main characters happening slightly too fast. That kind of confused me! Other than that I loved reading about the character in different sections of their life. From where they first met to the current and basically their whole senior year.
I also loved reading a little bit about the love life of their friends. I know the or at least the most of them have their own stories. Some of them I read or at least know a little bit about, so it was kind of nice to read about them again.
I officially love all the tough hockey guys who are super soft deep down when it comes to winning and protecting their girl! <3
All together it was a fun and super adorable read. Which will take you maximum a day, but is perfect for escaping into a little dramatic and sometimes a little naive slow starting love story! ;)

Awesome
Summer and Mason's story is awesome and so full of emotion. It hooked me from the beginning and I had to read it straight through. I loved it and all the other books by Melanie Marks. If your looking for a sweet, fun, exciting read than these books are perfect!

I read the previous Fall For Me books and while it is true that you don't need to read them to follow this books, it helps with character development for some of the background characters.
I liked reading Mason and Summer's story almost as much as Griffin and Ally' s (His Kiss/More His Kiss). Mason and Griffin are very similar so that is probably a factor. Mason plays hockey, gets into fights, is always with a different girl in order to get his mind off the one he loves but doesn't think he can have, but also can't help but be protective of her and say yes to whatever she asks for. Maybe he isn't totally the kind of guy a girl should want in real life but he will do for the fantasy book world.
Initially I wasn't so sure about reading this book because of the whole step brother thing but it was fine. Their folks were married for less than a year and they really only leaned on the sibling title as an excuse to avoid their true feelings. A little weird, yes, but not gross.
I have mixed feelings about the writing. On one hand, I had difficulty putting my Kindle down because I was so wrapped up in Mason and Summer's story and there were so many moments that either made my heart soar or plummet. On the other hand, too much of the writing is like a retell of past events instead of being in the moment. And during those retell moments there is a definite hyper, caffeine-high, million words a minute tone. The good outweighed the bad though. It was worth reading.

I think if you don't know the difference between "they're" and "their" then writing probably isn't the profession for you. Just my opinion, and clearly not one that is shared by a lot of others.
The misogynistic undertones (overtones?) of this book made me deeply uncomfortable. I know that's part and parcel of American culture, but there are so many better writers who write stories that raise expectations that I'm unsure why books that lower expectations, like this one, are still being churned out.

The book is basically unreadable thanks to the attrocious writing style. I was able to deal with it in some of the other stuff written by Ms. Marks because it helps personalize the ditzy, disjointed teenagers she writes about. Not so here. The concentration is so high it's offputting. If that didn't do the job, the poor storytelling would. Definitely not one to recommend.

I was glad to finally read Summer and Mason's story. They were discussed by all of the other characters in the other books, so I'm glad that they got their shot.
