Synopsis:
My best friend’s that guy. You know the one. Popular. Quarterback. Trouble. And clueless about my deeper feelings for him. So I’m focused on my other love, running.
I want to qualify for cross country nationals, and I don’t need to be distracted by Jace Wilder’s latest shenanigans. Good thing there’s a new guy in town. Even better, Ryan Harding is a running star, and it seems I’ve caught his interest.
I can handle long miles and hill sprints, but guys? That’s an entirely different challenge.
* No cliff hangers. While the series should be read in order, each book is a complete story. *
My Review:

Genre: YA, sports (cross country running)
Standalone: Yes
Part of a Series: Yes book 1 of the Pepper Jones series
POV: Pepper
Steam Level: heavy petting
4.5/5
I don’t usually read a lot of YA books but this one was a lot of fun. Pepper and Jace have been best friends since childhood but things get weird when Pepper starts noticing Jace and his hot body and his playboy ways. Things amp up a notch when the new boy in town takes an interest in Pepper who Jace has declared off limits to the other boys in school. Pepped Up intertwines elements of a love triangle and friends to lovers elements portraying Pepper’s emotions and confusion well. I started listening to this with the intention of stopping when I was finished with what I was working on and ended up binging it instead.
I received this audiobook for free from Audiobook Obsession. This is my honest and voluntary review.
