Game On

by Calvin Slater

"Gritty yet heartwarming." -- Kirkus Reviews on Lovers & Haters

Xavier Hunter hoped his senior year would be bad news-free. His old enemy is finally in lockdown and Xavier is out from under one mad-crazy relationship disaster. And he's cool with his dream girl, Samantha Fox, dating other guys because fair is fair--he hasn't been a saint. But he's not hearing anything good about her new man, Sean. And showing Samantha the truth could be the one game Xavier can't win. . .

With graduation and college coming up fast, Samantha has been thinking hard about her future. Maybe she and Xavier have too much baggage to get back together. And Sean is a chance to see things fresh and figure out what she really wants. So she doesn't need Xavier telling jealous lies--especially when the drama he's lighting up could crash and burn their futures for good. . .

Whew! Coleman High School has a lot of drama! This was a good read. It was entertaining with good character development. I’ll admit I grew tired of hearing about Samantha and her money. Dakota was hands down my favorite character. I love how the author incorporated real life issues such as bullying. Also with what happened to Xavier at the skating ring. The author didn’t just focus on the action of the incident. He also brought light to the aftermath.
I did notice a few editing mistakes, but they didn’t take away from what was going on in the book.

The book was very good, because unfortunately we as parents with kids in school today are dealing with all of the same problems today. So I say very good Mr Slater. I give you a star rating.

I give you a five star rating because you highlighted all of the problems we as parents face today with our kids in school.

Wow another amazingly well written book by Calvin Slater! “Game On” will keep you on the edge of your seat. Mr. Slater never cease to amaze me with the word play and how he put you right in the middle of all the many twist and turns of the final book in this series. This book is a “got” to read!
