Book 4 in The Drummond For Mature YA readers Two girls, one Drummond. Who will win the battle for Ozzy's heart? Hi, I'm Ozzy. I've spent my entire life wanting a girl just like my Aunt Audrey. When Raven shows up she is eerily just like my aunt in many ways. Raven flipped a switch in me and now that it is on, I don't know how to turn it off. That is until a cheerleader I've had a crush on for years, Tamsyn, decided to start speaking to me. Raven is different and complicated. Tamsyn is sweet and likes 80s rock music. What is a drummer to do when I'm in love with two very different girls? I'm Tamsyn. I've loved Ozzy since our freshman year when I met him. He was so into his music and I was so nervous around him I just...couldn't speak. Now, I had to compete for his affection, and Raven is not fighting fair. How far am I willing to go to win his heart? I'm Raven. I just moved to Virginia from California and met Oswald "Ozzy" Drummond. He is way better than the cyber relationships I have had online. I'm determined not to fall in love with anyone. Not to let society, or Ozzy's crazy mom, tell me that my behavior is bad because I'm a girl. It started out as friends with benefits, but it turned into something real, and lasting. I love Ozzy. I might have to love him enough to let him go.

Ozzy is the 4th in the Drummonds series by September North. Reading the previous books is a should do before reading this installment. Ozzy is an angsty tale of a good guy torn between two girls. One is quirky and dark the other is a smart, sweet girl who has crushed on him for years. I like that Ozzy isn’t perfect. I like that he is torn and conflicted. I am so grateful I am out of high school. I was less than thrilled at the ending as I’ve got so many questions and will have to wait for the next book for answers. I can’t recommend this series enough. Fantastic!
The Drummond Series by September North is YA romance for mature YA readers. First times, first loves and the awkward but necessary conversations between consenting adults. Great for 13-17 year olds but all readers will fall in love with the characters. It's a stand alone book in a series, but best read with the other books. I cannot wait to read the next book "Kat" as this book leaves the door open for more of Ozzy's story.
