HOOD RIVER RAT
BY K WEBSTER
HOOD RIVER HOODLUMS #1
TOTAL RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I absolutely loved Roan and Hollis in this MM romance By K Webster. A compelling read recommended to all high school bully romance lovers.



I try to pull my hand away, unsure if I’m able to handle whatever this storm brewing between us is. I don’t know if it’ll end with fists and broken bones or kisses and broken hearts.
It’s too intense and cataclysmic to not end in destruction, though.
If it’s not hate, it’s something close.
Hate destroys and decimates.
Whatever this is, it’ll ruin too.
Ruin me.
Ruin him.
Probably ruin everyone in this room.


Ever since I read the prologue of this novel n the bully me anthology , I have been waiting for this book.
So this is the story of Hollis , a new comer in the college and Roan, one of the Hoodlums whom he meets there. Roan instantly takes up to hating Hollis because he and his friends think that Hollis is too basically a showoff who thinks he owns the place.

I think it was a bit harsh of Roan to just assume things like that , just because he saw Hollis come "rolling" in his mustang. But then too i guess his hate was just a cover up for the attraction he felt for the new boy in college.

After sometime things finally start to smooth down between Roan and Hollis, when Hollis unintentionally fucks it all up. Roan and his friends then make it their life's mission to ruin Hollis's life. An accident occurs that causes Roan to acknowledge his feelings towards Hollis and from there they basically start dating.



My favorite parts where the ones where Roan showed his soft side. These parts were rare and precious showed his real side. In this book we got to know a lot more about the other hoodlums too and specifically Jordy , who i hated in the starting, But slowly warmed up to him.
Particularly I don't like MM because many authors and not able to portray the relationship accurately and it just looks sleazy , but K Webster has done a great job in this story and I really enjoyed it .



I liked this story but could not find anything in it worth reading again and again, so this was just an enjoyable one time read for me.
