The pact - Final Review
I personally like the book although I couldn't say I highly recommend it. My favorite character was Indigo because shes very positive. " I think we need a real break " Marcus said to Indigo over the phone. Indigo didn't know what to say or think. She was heartbroken. " Don't ever talk to me again Marcus Carter ! " Indigo yelled and hung up. I think Indigo did the right thing because of Marcus' childish actions he deserved to be treated like an immature child. Once Indigo got over Marcus she decided to put herself back out there. At the end all ended well.
The Pact - Second look
What the couple soon found out was they couldn't be away from each other for a long amount of time. Marcus met a new girl that reminded him of Indigo. He decided that giving this new girl a chance it take Indigo off his mind. Over time Marcus began to spend more time with his new friend and stop calling Indigo. So when it was time for Marcus to go back home to Indigo he didn't want to.
The Pack
This book is another addition to the Indigo Summer Series. This book specifically focuses on Indigo and her boyfriend Marcus. The two of them made a pact that for the summer they would each be single so they wouldn't cheat on each other, they were heading to separate locations. The couple thought it would be a good idea. They'll soon find out that it wasn't so smart in the first place.
