“Unpredictable” is the second book in the “Brighton Academy” series. We met Victoria and Sterling in book 1. I was curious about their story, since there was apparently something going on between them.
Victoria and Sterling have been friends since elementary school. Somewhere along the way, sparks started flowing between them and they made a deal. Since neither of them wanted a relationship, they decided on an exclusive friends with benefits arrangement. However, Sterling might not want a relationship, but Victoria definitely wants more.
Sterling is a really troubled character. He has issues, mostly because of his father’s relationships. Growing up, he saw women associating with his father only to gain money. That fact is why he doesn’t want to get involved with anyone. Victoria had feelings for him for quite a while. Even though it hurts, she agrees with the arrangement so she can be with him. There’s more to the story than their relationship. I must admit that Sterling is not a character I can love. He’s toxic for Victoria and until he works out his issues, he will only hurt her. Victoria’s character was my favorite. We got to know her more than the bubbly happy cousin we met in book 1 and I liked that!
I liked book 2 more than the first. Victoria’s story is my favorite so far! I’m curious about the rest of the characters’ stories. I’ll be in the lookout for them!!
