Feuds and Reckless Fury

Continuing on a TBR/Beat-The-Backlog kick (and ignoring my ARCs kick). Here's "Feuds and Reckless Fury" by K Webster.

["The hatred began when my father proposed to another man in a shocking moment that rocked my family to its core...

Now I’m on a quest for revenge against my father.
That means hitting him where it hurts—the new fiancé and the son he thinks so much of.
Alister Sommers.

Alis is a bleached blond perfectionist thorn in my side who’s used to everything going his way. Grades, money, track—he dominates it all despite his short, insignificant frame.

Was one dad not good enough that Alis had to take mine too?

Soon, we’ll be stepbrothers.
Until then, I vow to make his life a living hell.
Maybe Dad will regret his terrible mistakes.
Maybe he won’t.
I know I won’t regret wrecking their lives like they did mine.

I’ll give up everything, even my girlfriend and football, if it means I get a chance for retribution.

It’s reckless and risky, but I don’t have much to lose.
The havoc I wreak might ease some of the pain Dad caused my mother.
I’m willing to give it a shot.

What starts as a family feud will become a war… one I plan on winning no matter the cost.

There’s only one small problem.
I may have underestimated my opponent."]

Ohhhhhh. I wasn't sure about these two. I really, really wasn't sure. But wooow. They were…not good at the enemies thing. At all. 

The fury? Understandable. They both had some baggage and trauma to deal with on top of typical teenage angst.

The feud? Same thing as the enemies, great in theory but horrible in the execution (the characters not being able to stay mad at each other, not the writing of the characters).

The reckless? Ha, yeah that had that in spades. So much recklessness. 

But they found their HEA in the end, even if everyone had to cry a few times to get there.
