Bay Falls High #3
Untamed
I still am the dirty, poor girl…
…with everyone staring right at me.
Look. I took on ‘the Rulz’. Those who do that never get a happy ending in life.
So why would I expect anything less?
Secrets from my past come to the surface, and the last person I expect to see shows up.
I have to question who is a friend, who is fake, and who is an enemy.
I’m not rich. So the only way to defend myself is to fight back. Literally.
BFH is made up of fake smiles and eager nightmares.
My only escape is to go back to the world that gave me nothing.
Unless I make a choice.
The choice of ‘one’ … nothing more, nothing less.
In some way I always knew it would come down to this.
Me standing alone.
Three of the hottest and baddest guys standing across from me.
And this time … I am the fucking prize.
For good.

Disappointed in the ending
Honestly loved the series but ..spoiler alert
I didn’t care for female MC in the end.. she lost her sweetness... and I hated how Barr and Kip were at the end basically mean to her and idk
Maybe I wanted a RH because I didn’t feel Any If the boys liked her more than the other... I just wish I could rewrite the entire 3rd book

POV:h
Continuing from UnLoved.
This is the last of Tinsley's story... or is it?! Could it be the end of BFH series?!
Let's hope not. Please Jaxson.
The emotions throughout this series has been epic! Loved it!
Again, twists and turns I didn't see coming.
Tinsley played the Rulz boys at their own game. And got caught. They didn't like it. But couldn't blame her, knowing that they were told false information about her. But who informed them?
Feeling more like she doesn't belong or who to trust. Tinsley thinks it better to just to leave town altogether.
"I don't know where I belong anymore."
The Rulz are still determined to keep Tinsley in town.
Tinsley thinks it's the Rulz that are behind the threats. So she calls out the Rulz. But looks like someone else is in play.
Meanwhile, Tucker, Tinsley's father, is trying his best to form a connection with her. With the help from Claire, who really does have her best interests at heart. But obviously Tinsley has trust issues. Then he reveals a secret to her. This doesn't go well.
Plus with the ever confusing feelings for the Rulz. She knows that she can't have all three of them. She has to choose one.
"My mind screamed the same thing over and over and over ..... you can only pick one."
Finding out about what went down between Gi, Iris and Beth become clearer. Gi and Iris are great friends to Tinsley. Love these girls!
Truths are coming out, and the games are over.
But at what costs?
Tinsley's heart is getting crushed at every turn.
Can she cope?
Who does she choose?
Can she, or will she choose?
".... a little bit of something was better than nothing at all."
Look out for HCH characters popping in.

Oh my!!! This is an amazing ending to an amazing series!! Jaxson made me laugh, cry and scream! Tinsley really grabbed my heart. I truly felt what she felt. The rulz also grabbed my heart. Jaxson is amazing! He makes it so that you were totally brought into the story. The series is amazing and if you have not ready yet I strongly suggest that you do.
Thank you Jaxson!!!
Thank you Jaxson!!!

Wow, this was amazing journey with Ti and the Rulz. I couldn't put this book down, as I followed Ti as she sought the answers she needed. Jaxson didn't disappoint us. Many tears I shed with Ti. Jaxson surpassed himself with this one. Again Jaxson Kidman well done

:In this final installment of the Bay Falls High trilogy, we follow Tinsley as she is hellbent on getting to the truth. Who ruined her plans against The Rulz? Are they done with all their games and is Tinsley going to be pulled deeper as she finds out more truths than she bargained for?
Kidman spins this perfectly, keeping you enthralled and flipping to the next page to find out what happens. He definitely doesn't disappoint with this closure.

Phenomenal ending to an amazing series!!’
Jaxson Kidman has really turned up the WOW factor with the final book, Untamed, in the Bay Falls High series!! Leading up to the conclusion of the book, all the secrets are revealed and questions are answered...but are they? The ending was perfectly executed, but did leave a few things open to the possibility that this may not be the last that we’ve seen of the BFH gang! Once again, Kidman has far surpassed 5 stars with Untamed!! Well done Mr. Kidman!!

Now that everyone knows the real reason the Rulz were so interested in Tinsley, life can finally go back to normal, right? Well not so fast. Obviously the bet didn't go as planned for the guys and their reaction upon learning the truth, didn't go the way Ti thought it would.
The girl who was always just an after thought, had for once been a priority and Tinsley secretly loved all the attention she got from Kip, Barr and Pres. Ti knew she was playing with fire, but in her mind, she wasn't going to get burned. She believed she could control the situation and maybe play the Rulz. She was wrong. The Rulz did control BFH and everything associated with it.
The way her life had been going, even learning the truth about her father, seemed fitting. I seemed her luck would continue, as it had from birth. Ti couldn't rely on her mother, Claire or the Rulz. She could only count on herself.
Lines had been crossed. Decisions had been made. And the rules had been changed.
Kip, Barr and Pres were very much in charge again. This time it would be different. This time one was playing for keeps.
🌟🌟BRILLIANT🌟🌟
AMAZING ENDING TO THIS SERIES, ALTHOUGH, I STILL WANT MORE ! ! !
This book, with it's compelling words, had me eager to find out how this story would end. I didn't want it to end, but I needed to know.
I KNEW FROM BOOK 1, THIS WAS GOING TO BE AN AMAZING SERIES AND ONCE AGAIN, JAXSON DID NOT DISAPPOINT ! THIS STORY AND IT'S CHARACTERS ARE ORIGINAL AS WELL AS ADDICTIVE AND DEMANDING OF YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION ! ! ! THESE CHARACTERS COME TO LIFE AND DRAW YOU INTO THEIR WORLD TAKING NO PRISONERS AND MAKING NO EXCUSES ! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES ! THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT ! ! !

UNTAMED (Bay Falls High Book #3) By Jaxson Kidman
WOW! This is the conclusion of the Bay Falls High Saga and it is a great one! Tinsley is finally getting her questions resolved. The secrets are starting to get revealed. Now Tinsley has to learn how to live with the answers, which is much harder than she would have ever thought. Claire, Tucker, Beth, Gi, Iris, are more complicated than ever, and they are all hiding things that Tinsley is able to find out. Tinsley is with the one I wanted her to be with at the end.
I am in total awe of Jaxson Kidman's talent! He has the ability to put you right next to the Rulz and Tinsley to watch what is transpiring. He brings a real life quality to his work. I absolutely loved the ending of this series! No way could it have ever been more satisfying!! I could not put this book down after I started it. BFH vs HCH? BFH! (In my opinion) Definitely a 5 Star read!!

Phenomenal, outstanding, brilliant
Another great book in an amazing series. In true Jaxson form he didn't disappoint. Who is Ti going to choose out of the Rulz? Barr, Kip, or Pres. Or maybe all three. Or, will she just pack up and leave? I won't ruin it for you. You will think it's going to end one way but, in true Jaxson form you will be shocked at the end. You will find yourself pulled in from the first chapter. You will be begging for the next book in the series. Will there be more??? Who knows. I sure hope so because I can't get enough of this series. Brilliantly written

Final book in the trilogy
All I can say is WOW! What a ride. After more secrets and more twists all the answers are finally given. Jaxson sure knows how to keep your interest. Had me on the edge of my seat. I want the other’s stories now. Jaxson has opened up a whole new world.
When I first started this series I was a little Leery. It’s been awhile since I was in high school, so I wasn’t sure if I would be able to relate to the characters. That wasn’t an issue. If that is the only thing holding you back from trying these books, don’t let it. Give them a try. You won’t be sorry.

Jaxson Kidman has yet again stunned me in this final book #3 from the Bay Falls High series. I thought I knew what was going to happen and once again, he proved me wrong. Tinsley is quickly falling in love, or so she thinks.. But who will she choose? Will she choose any of the Rulz at all? So many questions have been building finally get answered in this final book.. But really Jaxson kind of left it open for perhaps another one in the future. It's hot and sexy and trust me, you won't be able to put it down either once you begin.
August 23, 2019
You just keep us guessing, our minds wondering but when we finally see the out come we are blown away. Things finally are explained and answers are given but what I wasn't expecting was how we got them. This book had us needing to know. I couldn't put it down until I found out. Tinsley and The Rulz made this story what it needed to be and I must say not reading HCH I now need to this group of books I think had to be the best work that Jaxson has done. There is so much everyday life in them that we can relate to it. Never give up on something that you want. Love can make you do some crazy shit, not giving a damn who finds out or ehat the consequences are. We need more from Jaxson on HCH and BFH. Thank you again for writing another that we get lost in and love the characters no matter what. Jaxson is one 9f the most sincere and honest writers I know and I'm proud to be able to call him a friend. Keep them coming. I give it 5+ stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book as an Advanced Reader's Copy

Tinsley just can't catch a break. Lies and drama flow like the money and liquor, easily and endlessly. Her guys, they are more than any one girl can handle yet she does. Each one holds her captive in his own way. They push and pull, but not quite snapping her into. And secrets are slowly becoming real and friends are not to be trusted.
But can Tinsley be protected and saved or will she be her own undoing?
Her past is about to be revealed, new characters and new roles. Can she hold on or is she about to evolve into just what she's trying to avoid?
So many questions and finally answers and we're left wondering...is this the end?

It’s not a surprise that Jaxson Kidman leaves me almost speechless when I finish one of his books. After finishing UnTamed, well, he’s done it again! UnTamed is the final book in the #bfh ( Bay Falls High) series and I had to hang on for this ride. Questions are answered, tempers are raised, hearts broken, friendships developed, eyes are opened and love is revealed. But that’s not all, there’s no shortage of nail biting action and panty melting steam...... Jaxson has delivered such an awe inspiring series that you will love! I can’t wait to see what this Author has up his sleeve next! I highly recommend this series, and any of Jaxson Kidman’s books! ~Angie❤️

Speechless......WHAT A SERIES! 💚
What a series! This is the final instalment in this series and the drama lasts until the very end of the book. This series grips you from the very start and has you hooked, desperately waiting on the next instalment. It has young love, drama in spades, hope, and friendshi . Worth more than 5 stars, congratulations Jaxson Kidman on producing this stunning piece of work. Words currently fail me to describe how good this is. Your seriously missing out if this series isn't on your TRB list.

OMG....the ending to this series did not disappoint! It was everything I wanted for Tinsley, and so much more!! All the secrets are out, the drama reaches it's peak and just when you want to yell at the characters the real motivations behind who they are and why they do what they do are told and you are left breathless. Tinsley now knows who are her true friends, who mean the world to her and who ultimately owns her heart. What a fabulous ending to a fabulous series, and you get a peek in to HCH Again! Loved it so much!!
August 30, 2019
I am at a loss for words...No matter what I say about this book, it will not do it the justice it deserves. This series has been phenomenal! The secrets, The lies, the truths are out now, but is there still more to come? I love the chemistry between Tinsley, Pres, Barr & Kip, the feelings or non feelings that may or may not be real. I really hope this is not the last we hear of these characters. Hopefully they will all ‘pop up’ in another #bfh book someday soon. (Please Jaxson 😉)
August 25, 2019
WOW!! UNTamed is the 3rd book in the series it has drama, twists, turns, and so much more. Jaxson Kidman knows how to keep you wanting more. This is a great series of Tinsley and she finds the answers she was wanting to know and few surprises along the way. I couldn't put this book down it was that good. This Bay Falls High Series should be on your to be read list. Awesome series.

BFH, WOW!

Who her father is, to who told her little secret to ruin her revenge to get one over on the rulz’s.

THE DELIGHT
The final chapter of this series. Now things are heating up. And Ti is realizing what she has to do to survive. A wonderful ending to this story line.
REVIEW
Before I get into the actual review I want to talk a little about some of the themes I saw going in that just don't pan out, but also some disbelief.
First off, these are 18/19 year olds still in high school. The run the school, but at no time do you ever see the in class. In the halls, bleachers and parking lot, yes, but no teachers or classes. Weird. Then these kids are so rich they seem to act like they are adults with some deep running threads. One has a parent dying of ALS. Another is cheating. We don't know another set that well. With a pair that are in real estate and know Claire. It's like none of the parents know their kids. They skip school, they beat each other up, and just seem like a rotten group of people in general.
This is listed as a reverse harem story. While she does kiss the all, go places with them all, she doesn't sleep with the all. It isn't a m/f/m/m relationship. Thank goodness. It's more of a triangle to see who gets her. So if you wanted a poly relationship, this isn't it.
Next it also is a NA Romance, but I don't list it that way. They are still in high school at the end of this story and really I have no idea what time of year it is to know if they are graduating soon or not. Time is fluid and uncaring.
Now that I got that all out of the way, let's get to the review.
Tinsley tries to leave BFH several times and each time The Rulz thwarts her efforts. They throw the money from their bet to her, but then she believes they steal it right away. Now there is a threat to her and The Rulz isn't letting her leave. While they surround her, protect her and try to make her happy, in no way did I see this as a reverse harem.
Tinsley is confused, torn, doesn't feel she has a home and in general is being a teenager who has had a hard life. Claire isn't all you think she is, she has a dark side. A family member is revealed...well two are revealed actually. Ti's mom's rehab is about to come to an end. And the entire world feels like it is on Ti's shoulders.
With the threat to Ti, The Rulz surround her with their protection. No one mess with The Rulz. Remember Beth? Well Beth, Gi and Iris all used to be friends, but Beth did something that caused a split. We learn more about them all in this story and this comes to bit Ti in a way later on.
Little by little we peel back layers of The Rulz, what circumstances created them, what drives them and why they all have fallen for Tinsley. But she only loves one and she doesn't know which one it is yet.
Everything keeps building and sometimes you just have to suspend your disbelief that these "kids" are running around doing all this without any kind of parental structure. The first scene in the first book finally gets explained as it was a future event that the story needed to be told. When it's time to pick just one, you find out why the other two never had a chance. This doesn't end their "love" for her, but they respect the other one enough to tease him mercilessly with their flirting.
So the story wraps us, but there is one dangling storyline not resolved. I was fine with that until I found out there was another series that continues the story from the point of view of each of The Rulz. So while this was over, you get to see the next threat facing Tinsley from Pres's POV. Kip will be next. Barr...well, I hope he gets his story too, but maybe not.
While I like the writing, I am not sure I can handle more of this world. There are series dealing with other high school regions and it sounds like exhaustion to sort it all out. Maybe I will take a break and come back to find out more of this world. Or maybe not.
The final chapter of this series. Now things are heating up. And Ti is realizing what she has to do to survive. A wonderful ending to this story line.

With the threat to Ti, The Rulz surround her with their protection. No one mess with The Rulz. Remember Beth? Well Beth, Gi and Iris all used to be friends, but Beth did something that caused a split. We learn more about them all in this story and this comes to bit Ti in a way later on.
Little by little we peel back layers of The Rulz, what circumstances created them, what drives them and why they all have fallen for Tinsley. But she only loves one and she doesn't know which one it is yet.
Everything keeps building and sometimes you just have to suspend your disbelief that these "kids" are running around doing all this without any kind of parental structure. The first scene in the first book finally gets explained as it was a future event that the story needed to be told. When it's time to pick just one, you find out why the other two never had a chance. This doesn't end their "love" for her, but they respect the other one enough to tease him mercilessly with their flirting.
So the story wraps us, but there is one dangling storyline not resolved. I was fine with that until I found out there was another series that continues the story from the point of view of each of The Rulz. So while this was over, you get to see the next threat facing Tinsley from Pres's POV. Kip will be next. Barr...well, I hope he gets his story too, but maybe not.
While I like the writing, I am not sure I can handle more of this world. There are series dealing with other high school regions and it sounds like exhaustion to sort it all out. Maybe I will take a break and come back to find out more of this world. Or maybe not.

I have to admit, I was a tad bit disapointed in who she picked at the end, he wasnt MY pic, but for her, it did make better sense. Now I just gotta wait for MY guy to get his story!
But maaaaan what a story THIS one is!

All I can say is WOW! Tinsley and the RULZ are my favorites! I am still shaking my head, get ready to get swooped in and captivated by Pres, Barr, Kip and Tinsley’s story it will keep you turning pages till the end as you go on this journey with them. Book three picks up where book two left off and what a wild journey, its action packed, suspenseful with a bit of mystery and many questions are answered in this third book. Pres has a side to him that he doesn’t show often to many peoples that will make you fall in love with him in a very different way than with Barr or Kip. The Bay Fall High Series is one intriguing and addictive roller coaster of a journey to say the least so hang on to your seat because you’re going to need it as you embark on this journey that Jaxson Kidman has created for us his readers. I extremely recommend this series to anybody who is a fan of Jaxson Kidman! A MUST READ and one of my favorite series by Jaxson Kidman!!

Mind blowing!!!!!
The conclusion of Tinsley's story.
Was she able to beat The Rulz in their own game?
Or did she got burn?
More secrets are uncovered and Jaxson Kidman blows your mind away. I didn't expected the turn of events in this last book. I was seriously shock by those events! I had to go back to the previous chapters and kept asking myself, how did I missed that? I love the way the story unfold and how the author made me love and hate the characters all at the same time.
If you have not experience BFH you are missing out! 1-Click for sure
This book is the third in the series and to fully enjoy the story you have to had previously read UNTouched (Book1) and UNLoved (Book2).

Ok
Story was good, but this last book kind of ruined my opinion of Ti. She just kept saying that she is poor and nobody to everyone and it felt like she was looking for pity. I thought she would kind of grow up and become confident and know who she is, but at the end (epilogue) she was just portrayed as a terrible person, in my opinion - very mean. (Like one of those girls that usually in books are the bad character - clingy, money hungry and a terrible bully to the nice girl) I think people don’t have to be mean to gain respect from everyone, but unfortunately she was. I am disappointed to be fair.
