Review:

This wasn’t bad. I liked Jordyn and Dylan but not as much as the other couples. I wasn’t quite as invested I guess.

Jordyn is trying to find a job for the summer to get out of her house and away from her parents fighting. Chase is going to a football summer camp, so he asks his best friend to watch over Jordyn by giving her a job at his dad’s restaurant.

Dylan and Jordyn have been friends for as long as they can remember. But there is the bro code. Don’t date your best friend’s sister.

I can’t really say much about this because like I said I wasn’t as invested and nothing really stood out from the relationship like the other two couples.

I might take a break from Evermore High and read something else to cleanse the palate.
