Hunter Maxwell always gets what he wants... and he wants me.

The day I met Hunter Maxwell he wasn’t the rich kid who lived in the giant house, he wasn’t the most popular guy in school, he certainly wasn’t the bully who had chased his own best friend out of town after a falling out—he was just a boy with a black eye and a dark secret.

My life would have been much easier if I had stayed out of it, but I couldn’t. I saw someone hurting and wanted to help. I saw someone possibly in danger and wanted to make sure he was safe.

There’s nothing safe about Hunter Maxwell, though. I thought there might be. I fell under his spell. Whatever the world saw when they looked at him, it wasn’t what he showed me.

The bond we formed was real. I know it was real. But with Hunter, when the tides turn, you’d better hope you’re safely on the shore and out of his reach.

I thought I was a strong enough swimmer to keep my head above water. I thought if it came down to it, I could resist his pull.

I didn’t know, but now I do.

Once Hunter sets his sights on you, there’s no such thing as out of his reach. Whether it’s today, tomorrow, or five years from now, he’s coming for me—and when he does, he won’t stop until he’s destroyed me.

***The Boy on the Bridge is a standalone novel that contains mature, adult content. It is only recommended for adult readers.

Note from the author: this novel is the size of two books. Rather than make it a duology and leave you on an emotional cliffhanger, I opted to keep the whole story in one bigger book.

Favourite FMC!!

Reviewed in Australia on 8 March 2021

The Boy on the Bridge features, but is not limited to, the following themes:
○ New adult
○ Dark romance
○ Smut
○ Bullying
○ High school
○ Manipulation
○ Bad boys
○ Triggers

My overall rating for The Boy on The Bridge is…

5 Stars!

Ok, firstly, I just wanted to take a moment to say that this is categorised as dark romance. This means there will be dark themes, triggers and questionable/twisted acts, so you do need an open mind if your new to the genre. Secondly, I loved this book so much! Riley is adorable! She's nerdy, dorky, realistic, empathetic and undeniably lovable. And Hunter! He's the bad boy we all secretly crave. Dominate, manipulative, rich, sexy and a King in the bedroom. There is the typical good girl meets bad boy romance goings ons, however, incorporate the painful plot, individualism of the FMC and the overall skill of the author and you get this incredible, emotional and downright painful tale. This is my first book by Mariano, but I understand there are slight character crossovers with her other books and this one. Overall, I am super in love with the characters and their relationship and the story was just beautiful.

Such a great story!

Reviewed in Australia on 7 March 2021

Ugh! Where do I even start? This book envoked so many emotions from me where felt like I was losing my mind. With all the drama, angst, and plot twists and turns, I almost felt like I was back in high school myself. You know how it is in high school with all the different cliques, cheerleaders, popular jocks, parties, dances, gossip, pranks and rivals. Oh and young love, can't forget that.
The Boy on the Bridge is about Riley and Hunter. These two are complete opposites. Where Riley is nerdy and on the poorer side living with her mom, Hunter is the rich popular guy in school everyone loves. These two met when Riley was 14 and became fast friends. Yes, Hunter had many friends at school, but none that he trusted or could confide in the way he did with Riley. That is, until she breaks his trust and he gets sent away. A few years later and he's back in town, intent on making her pay for her betrayal. What will he do? What did Riley do to betray him and will he ever forgive her?
This story was so good. I loved how headstrong and independent Riley was and the loyalty and empathy she showed towards others is something that's in low supply in real life these days. As for Hunter, swoon. The perfect book boyfriend. He himself is determined and persistent. I felt for what he endured at home and what happened to him, and regardless off all his ruthless and possessive manipulation, he did feel guilt and was apologetic for his actions which gave him extra points.
I felt as though this story was a bit on the longer side than most novels. Some parts seemed to drag, but overall, this was a great story. I enjoyed the book and the characters were fantastic.

Just wow!

Reviewed in Australia on 6 April 2021

Wow! I initially read part of this book in an anthology and could not wait to read more. I stayed up until 2am then woke up at 6am to keep reading. My life completely on hold!
I was totally enamoured with Riley. I was so totally invested in her story and her journey with Hunter. I feel that the author totally nailed teen angst while also developing strong female characters. There are some potential triggers and interesting turns.
Downsides, throwing in of random characters in the end. The story goes on day by day alot then all of a sudden skips a heap. This does not take from the journey of the MC though, just an interesting way to do it. Other characters sort of fall to the wayside , which again is OK as this is an epic love story and it focus stays true.
Now I need a nap!

Another Mariano Home run!

Reviewed in Australia on 8 March 2021

I can count on one hand the number of Authors I’ve read that can knock it out of the park each and every book they write, where you fall in love with the author as much as the story.
While this one was maybe a little longer than some of her others and it had some of the brilliant manipulation and deviousness Sam’s famous for, the hero was a touch sweeter, (still batshit) but sweeter than I like personally...... in saying that I think when an author can have you hanging on every word, right to the final letter she’s done her job.
I loved the H, so strong and well rounded, I knew where she was coming from every time. So mature to handle the hero and everything he threw at her..
This is the sort of story girls should be reading, and the H they should be aspiring to be.... even written this century😉

Angsty HS Romance

Reviewed in Australia on 9 March 2021

I really enjoyed this one. It was angsty HS romance (very tame bullying). You could really tell how much Hunter loved Riley, he was head over heels for her from day one. Hunter was very manipulative, determined to get his girl regardless of her resistance. In saying that, it’s very different from Untouchable. Hunter was nowhere near as intense as Carter but we got to meet an amazing side character (Sherlock) who was giving me total Carter vibes! I found Riley to be a bit annoying, constantly say no even when she wanted to say yes just for the sake of saying no. But Hunter certainly made up for it! A really well written (but slow/drawn out) book. If you go into it know it’s nothing like Carter you will really like it.

Why do I do this to myself

Reviewed in Australia on 11 April 2021

Now that I have read this I must read everything by this author. This one made me want to chug a beer and throw a punch but then hug someone. So many emotions. Hunter was such a complex kid and Riley is just one of those give them everything types. she’s like that drunk chick in the bathroom at the bar crying about her boyfriend being a douche then half an hour later she’s saying he’s the best ever. Yeah there is a bunch of manipulation going on and yes absolutely at times you think god I hope she doesn’t end up with him but I think there is also a lot of awareness too like eyes wide open sort of thing. Enabling almost. Anyway, it was a super good read!

A love story like no other!!

Wow!!! This book just blew me away! I first discovered this book in the ' Bully Me class of 2020' when I read the first few chapters as a prelude for the full book....out of all the amazing stories in that anthology this was one that really stood out to me and one i just couldnt forget!
Well it was worth the wait! I am so in love with Hunter. His love and fight for Riley was just so full of love, emotion, angst and gave me chills (in a good way). I laughed and I cried with these characters just hoping that Riley got her man....what a journey they had! There were so many crazy and interesting characters in the plot, Riley's mom deserves a book all for herself. I would also love to read a story on Sherlock!!

This is a story about a popular rich sporty jock who falls for the strong independent and stubborn book nerd....but trust me when I say it so much more complex than that....it's about love, forgiveness and friendship! This story will touch you in ways you won't expect and it is one you will still be thinking about long after you have finished it!!

Another cracker from Sam.

I think they were lovely. Without giving it away, graduation day would have seen him thrown over the bridge.
Great characters, loved her mum, Ray, Sherlock, and that she met Zoey. Also loved hating so many people. Just plain hated his Mother. As usual Sam Mariano, breathes such life in to her books. I've read everything she's written, the book boyfriends and book hangovers I've enjoyed and suffered because of her. Can't wait for Caleb, to meet his match. Great read.

I enjoyed this book very much, I waited for so long ever since I read part one beforehand. Hunter and Riley are polar opposite but fit so well together, I just adored Hunter so so much hope we get to see them again in future books, looking forward to reading books for Caleb and Sherlock

So this book took me a little bit to warm up to the characters. I at first thought Riley to be a bit weak, not standing up for herself. But ... she’s not. As the story progresses, and you learn about the character you come to discover that she is strong. She has her own set of values she strictly adheres to, and while they may not be how I think most of us would process things they are uniquely her own and totally valid for her.

Hunter as well is his own unique hero. I absolutely adored his deep devotion to Riley. Oh that boy 😊🔥.

Sam is a master at creating unique characters with their own sets of values and that along with her brilliant writing is what makes me love this author so much 💕.

Can’t wait for more from her. I want a Sherlock book so bad 🤞
