When Rivals Play, Book 1

By: B. B. Reid

Narrated by: Joe Arden, Savannah Peachwood

The Puppet

Borrow the bike. Win the race. Collect the cash. It should've been an easy job. Ran out of town with a broken leg and a lawsuit, my mother's latest flame swoops in like a knight in gilded armor. Blackwood Keep is a place I don't belong, and I'm not the only one who knows. To the boy across the hall, my savior's only son, I'm a stray looking for a bone.

He's lord of the manor.
King of the academy.
And number one on my shit list.

The Peer

I have no intentions of becoming a happy family with the social climber and her wild daughter. A bottle of Jameson and a cracked skull gets my problem shipped to reform school, but I didn't bank on her returning.

Four's out to get even, and she almost had the perfect plan: Expose the privileged kid moonlighting as a gangbanger. She's smart, but she'll have to be smarter. Sending her away won't be good enough this time. I'm going to have to tame the little troublemaker. To the girl across the hall, the one without a name, I'm nothing without my silver spoon.

She's lady of the trailer park.
Queen of the swamps.
And my new favorite pastime.

The Peer and the Puppet is an interconnected stand-alone. The plot introduced will continue in the following novels.

Really enjoyed it

My first audiobook by this author and can gladly say I enjoyed it very much. The characters chemistry is what basically kept me engaged. I loved the secondary characters as well and their dynamic. For this being an angsty YA, it was well done and certainly extremely well narrated. Savannah Peachwood outdid herself!!! Joe Arden is just amazing, as always.

What a performance..

This made me love B.B Reid the book are always full of twists and rivals and powerful men.

Solid start Four and Ever

This is my first book by BB Reid and it enjoyed it. Their names was one of my favorite things about this story. Both the creativity of the names and the accompanying meaning of the names was a touching addition to these characters journey.
I loved that two of them found a kindred souls with each other. As with most young love stories, their journey was bumpy and a wild ride. Every time it seemed like they finally found their way, a wrench would be thrown their way. Then they wouldn’t communicate with words but instead used their bodies to convey their feelings.
I think both Four and Ever were strong characters and I’m interested to see in the next book how their resolve the dilemma they are currently tackling.

Great read

Love this book...it kept me on edge to see what was coming next. A must read

More

I loved this listen,but I think that there should be another ending. I know there is a 2.5, but there needs to be something more.
