From Cindy Miles, bestselling new adult author of STUPID GIRL, comes the next installment of her blockbuster Stupid in Love series – STUPID BOY.
Brax Jenkins and Olivia Beaumont are the most envied couple at Winston University—but the so-called “virginity dare,” orchestrated by Brax’s old fraternity, almost tore them apart. Now, a new dare is taking shape, and it’s sure to set emotions ablaze--more than ever before.
Winston’s “It Girl” Harper Belle isn’t just president of the Deltas--she’s also a master at keeping her ugly past a secret. So, when the Kappas’ dare hits closer to home for her more than anyone realizes, she devises a competition of her own as payback. Three sorority sisters will seek out a notorious womanizer on campus and--unbeknownst their “mark”--secretly train him to be the perfect boyfriend. Always up for a challenge, Harper targets the biggest player she can find: Brax’s wickedly handsome foster brother Kane McCarthy.
But, Harper discovers there’s much more to Kane than girls, games, and partying. His easy smile belies the quiet, old soul reflected in his deep brown eyes. All it takes is one night, one secret laid bare, and one kiss from Kane to shift Harper’s world on its axis. Suddenly, the girl who’s always walked a straight and narrow path can’t think of anything else except losing control.

Review
This book…. OMG. I’m always a little weary going into the second book of any series because I have so many expectations after the first. The author could always go so many ways and I’m scared that the book wouldn’t live up to the first.
Yet, I was scared for absolutely no reason at all. This book was so great!
I really liked the twist on this book instead of the usual boy and girl have a dare out on each other, this time it was a dare on reform. Girl makes dare that she can change bad boy’s ways. So perfect. I loved how the book played out and how the characters were used. It was nice to see how different the characters were from the first book. I think sometimes characters can be kind of unique + characteristics from previous characters. Not in this book
Harper Belle had this outside shell that she put on to show the world that she was strong and she was capable. After so many years pretending to be someone she’s not, she gets a little confused on who she is and what she wants. The main reason for this is her grandmother. She has this fear that kind of consumes her life because she believes that if she steps out of line, she will be sent to a psychiatric award. This fear makes her into the person she starts off as in the beginning of the book. Harper dresses super preppy an dis never seen with a hair out of place. Her main focus is on school and turns down requests to hang out with friends for fear her Grandmother’s “spies” will see and report back.
Then she meets a boy. A boy that captures her attention. A boy who is the perfect subject of her dare. Get payback on the sorority that breaks girls hearts through dares by reforming some of the worst boys. A chance to give payback becomes an epic journey in this amazing book. But the dare doesn’t turn out quite like she thinks.
Kane McCartney. Formal foster brother of Brax, Kane knows what it means to hurt and be hurt by those who are supposed to care for you. Mistaken as the worst of the worst, Kane becomes Harper’s personal experiment and dare-boy. Yet she might be wrong about Kane because he has his own reasons for being bad.
All in all, this book was an emotional filled mess that will drag you in, tear you up, and spit you out. After this book you will need to take one of those book pauses where you just reflect on just how much this book has changed you! (Well it might not be this serious, but no joke, this book is fabulous!).
