4 stars!

Madison had a crush on one of her brother’s best friends and he never really acknowledged her as more that a little sister, so when grumpy Quentin, another good friend of her brother’s, offers to help her get her crush to notice her, she decides to accept the help. As Quentin and Madison check off some of her firsts, they can’t help but grow closer.

When they are found in a compromising position, Madison’s father is furious especially since Quentin’s family is Madison’s family’s rival. Madison comes up with a plan to save him and herself from the situation and because of growing feelings, she is happy to tie herself to him permanently.

That is, until he leaves without a word, breaking her heart and making him even more of an enemy.

Before the Chaos is the perfect prequel to Rival Hearts. It sets up Madison and Quentin’s history beautifully so we know exactly what when down and where they are when they meet ten years later. I loved getting to see their feelings bloom and all they share. It also gives us what we need to know about Quentin’s relationship with Madison’s brother and friend. It ends on a bit of a cliffhanger and I was excited to dive right into Rival Hearts.

It’s a quick read but this little snippet into their past had me hooked from the start! I cannot wait for more!
