Rogue Wave (Cake, #5)

J. Bengtsson

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

A love story that survives the test of time. Keith McKallister is the king of the stoners. You know the type. Every school has one – the hot, fun, dopey guy beloved by the student body but despised by, well, just about everyone else. He spends his early mornings in the ocean and his days trying to get to class on time. Life is as easy as it gets until one poor choice too many catches up with him and he’s forced to reevaluate his path. Samantha Anderson sits in the front row. You know the type. Every school has one – the quiet, faceless, studious girl who fears the taunts of her peers and fades into the background. Life has never been simple for Samantha, and it’s about to get a little more complicated when Keith slides into the seat beside her with a partnership plan designed for his benefit only. But what Keith brings to the table is more than either of them could imagine. Sometimes the person you least expect to make a difference will change your life forever. Sometimes the person you love the most might be better off without you. *Although a part of the Cake Series, this book can be read as a standalone.

    I have enjoyed this series so much. I was curious as to why Keith would hurt his saintly girlfriend. I thought he must really be an asshat. He’s not.
    The first Keith we meet is a mixed up kid who finds himself stuck in a high school role he doesn’t know how to get out of.
    Sam’s family life is awful and she can’t wait to escape after graduation. She can’t involve herself with a charming stoner.
    To me, neither had much personality. They were sketches not complete drawings. The “obstacles” in their way were a bit over done. The second issue. I’m not sure I would have been so forgiving. Still love the family but wanted more for Keith & Sam.
