Title: Preppy: The Life & Death of Samuel Clearwater Part Two
Author: TM Frazier
Release Date: January 24, 2017
Synopsis:
Preppy finds himself back in a world he once loved, but no longer recognizes. His dim smile can’t hide his inner turmoil and the people he views as family all suddenly feel like polite strangers.
Except for one person. A girl with dark eyes and even darker hair.
A girl who isn’t even an option.
At least, not anymore.
Dre can’t decide who she’s going to listen to. Her heart, her head, or her body. Because two out of those three things have her heading right back to Logan’s Beach. Closure is what she tells herself she’s seeking, but when she unlocks doors that were never meant to be opened she soon discovers that when it comes to Samuel Clearwater, closure might NEVER be an option.
This is book six in the King Series and the second part of Preppy and Dre’s story.

My Review:
One day I may well run out of words to explain my love, awe and sheer bewilderment at TM Frazier’s books.
Love because she creates a world that I can visualise, I can feel a part of, and I can see for myself.
Awe because, after six books, I am still as hooked, still as shocked and still as invested in every single characters’ life, relationship and troubles.
Bewilderment because TM Frazier never fails to draw out many emotions from me. She never fails to stun me with her talent and make me feel lucky enough to read her words and enter the world she creates for us readers.
We pick up where Preppy Part One left off and soon find our way deep into the rehabilitation of Preppy after the shock ending. How does someone overcome the trauma he experienced? Differently than Preppy. Because he has his own way.
It isn’t all plain sailing. It certainly isn’t without highs and lows but damn if it wasn’t a rollercoaster I willingly queued up for and will time and time again.
Dre has her own story and troubles to overcome and even though much time has past, there are still things that need to be brought to light.
Their paths cross, many times throughout the book, and the fact that we see how this has all affected not only Prep and Dre, but Ray, King, Bear and Thia all. (I may have gotten giddy over the chapter from King’s POV!)
Hurdles, twists, turns, and downright angst are throughout the book and all I could do was hold on and hope to come out the other side in one piece.
Yes, we had another typical TM Frazier ending. But it’s ‘her’. It’s what we have come to expect and come to anticipate. Me? I read as slowly as possible in order to prolong that ending. If anything else, this guarantees your further interest and – almost obsession – in Preppy and Dre’s stories.
PLUS. BO. My heart. ❤
FIVE stars and more ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Excerpt:
“Oh yeah?” Preppy asked, taking a step forward, crowding me in, staring deep into my eyes with an intensity that had me biting down hard on my lower lip. “Do YOU like a clean look, Doc? Or do you like it dirty? Beards. Tattoos…scars?”
Yes, I like it dirty. So dirty.
I was stunned into silence. Preppy’s proximity was fucking with my brain, and I was afraid I was going to blurt out something that would dig me a deeper hole than I’d already dug for myself. I opened my mouth to answer, but I couldn’t get the words out. Not like I needed to. Preppy answered for me. “If I remember correctly, you like it dirty. Real fucking dirty.”
He took another step. “Remember that first time? In the field? By the train tracks? Remember how I pulled your hair while I fucked you from behind and stretched you open? Remember how it felt to have me moving inside of you? How it felt when you came and screamed in my fucking ear? I do. I remember. Thought of that scream every fucking day since. It was deafening.” He chuckled and pressed his teeth against his bottom lip. He groaned, the sound shot straight to my pussy. “I can still fucking hear it now.”
So can I.
The hair on the back of my neck stood on end. “What are you doing?” I asked, trying to step around him, but he pressed his hands against the wall, caging me in. The warmth of his chest radiated onto mine. I tried to look anywhere but into his eyes, afraid of what I might see, but there wasn’t anywhere else to look. He moved even closer.
Preppy pressed his knee between my thighs, parting my legs. “Me?” he asked, with mock innocence. “I’m just reminiscing with an old friend.”
“This doesn’t feel like just reminiscing.”
He stared intensely into my eyes. “No, not YET it doesn’t.” He grinned. “But it fucking will. Soon.”
