TAYLORI’m that poor little rich girl whose silver spoon was snatched right out of her pretty mouth.I lost everything.Now my everyday reality includes sleeping in my car and dining on whatever clearance food I can purchase with spare change.But my issues don’t end there.My nightmare family is hot on my heels and demanding something I don’t have.They won’t give up until I crack.And I’m just on the … until I crack.
And I’m just on the brink.
When I finally hit rock bottom I fall into the arms of an unlikely savior.
Kellan Gentry.
Brash and arrogant. Prince of the party scene. Notorious flirt.
The kind of guy who would break your heart with a shrug.
Falling for him makes no sense…
Right?
KELLAN
I used to be careless.
I used to be all about chasing trouble and good times.
But watching my own family go through hell changed everything.
Now I just want to stay on a steady path and make them proud.
Then along comes Taylor Briggs.
Two years ago we hooked up at a wild party and she’s hated me ever since.
She’s gorgeous and sarcastic. She’s wrapped in more secrets than I can guess.
And somehow the ground shifts underneath me.
In the clash between love and logic, there’s no mystery as to which one will win.
I’ve been warned about the complications. I’ve been warned we’ll get ripped to shreds.
I dare anyone to try.
There’s nothing I won’t do to protect this girl.
No matter what it costs me.
Enemies to friends to lovers. May be read as a stand alone.

Have you read any of the Gentry books? Are you a die hard fan like I am? Ugh if not I HIGHLY recommend you check them all out. Do you need to read them to follow this story? Nope, not at all. It holds it own with its beautiful telling. OMG I will admit, I have been struggling the last two days, trying to articulate all that I love about this book. So here goes…
Kellan is part of the wonderful Gentry clan. Thinking about him makes my heart happy. He truly is one of the good guys. How he reconnects with our heroine is so touching. They had met and hooked up in college a couple years before. I know, juicy right?!
Taylor, HOLY HECK, that girl has had some difficult days. Life has not been kind to her recently. My heart breaks for her. To the world, she has really fallen from grace. She went from entitled, wealthy to homeless, starving girl in a couple of years.
Taylor has this indomitable spirit but mixed in with some self deprecation. Read the story and you will understand why. Wink! Kellan has some white knight tendencies that help Taylor find her was again. She reminds me of a butterfly coming out of its cocoon. Sigh.
Okay, so I have told you some of the emotional stuff but I need to say there is some funny in this book as well. These two characters are both quick witted and have no problem thinking or saying some of the FUNNIEST one liners. SO GOOD! Plan to laugh… A LOT!
Kellan and Taylor know how to spice up the page. They are sexy and have the right amount of steam to REALLY elevate this story. Drool. Don’t think that is all though because this book has some intrigue that blew my mind. I won’t say anymore except this is a full experience read. It is five star worthy and more. Happy Reading Everyone!
This was an amazing read that I had finished quickly! I have been waiting for Kellan’s story and I was not disappointed in the least. Kellan and Taylor had a slow burn relationship that was kind of second chance after their one night hook up as well as a friends to lovers feel since when they reunited they did so as friends. I felt that both characters were well written for the circumstances that they found themselves in throughout this book as Taylor starts out homeless and has issues with her pride when it comes to accepting help from others and Kellan has a strong desire to help and protect her but learns that he needs to step back and wait for her to ask for the help that she needs. The banter between the pair was quite enjoyable and the tension between them was palpable at times. Their story felt like it just flew by and now I can’t wait to have Thomas’s story. If you are a fan of the Gentry series as well as the Generations spin off series then this book will not disappoint you in the least.
Another great read by Cora Brent!! Clash sums up our two main characters, Kellan Gentry and Taylor Briggs, perfectly. Kellan was a partier, a player. That’s how he Taylor two years prior. Taylor was a rich girl who wore her resting bitch face with pride. Alot has changed in the two years, when the meet again. Taylor isn’t the same girl she was. No longer is she smug and entitled, she is fighting to survive. Kellan wants to be the one there for her.
Clash is an emotional rollercoaster. My heart broke for Taylor as she struggled to make a life for herself and I swooned when Kellan stepped up and stood up for her.
WOW…..what an emotional ride from beginning to end! Taylor was the IT girl, rich, popular and on top of the world until it all came crumbling down. Kellan was the “Party Prince”, all about girls, parties, girls until only one girl occupied his mind. Taylor is trying her best to survive life and Kellan wants to be her knight and friend while trying to hide his feelings for her. Can these two overcome the obstacles in their path? Will they admit how they feel for each other? This is the fifth book in the Gentry Generations series and a MUST read because each one gets better and better and you just can’t put it down!
Once again Cora Brent hits you right in the feels! I love how her books, while being HEA and all that, still touch on many of the issues that normal people face everyday- addiction, homelessness, bad choices, will still being able to escape and not get depressed! lol! Kellen definitely is a Gentry! I highly recommend this book…and all the rest if you have not read them!
Taylor Briggs is just trying to make it day by day. After losing everything that’s all she can do now. Kellan Gentry is one of Chase and Stephanie Gentry’s sons and a heartbreaker at that. They might of met at a party two years ago but Taylor is not the same girl from that night. She has many secrets…he wants to figure those secrets out. Can these two find a way to help each other? This was another fabulous addition to the Gentry Clan and a very enjoyable book. I’m crushing hard on Kellan!! A perfect mix of sweet and sexy; Told in dual POV
Omg Cora Brent you are absolutely the Queen of Writing these Amazing Gentry Stories that suck you in and when it’s over you’re filled with heartbreak because you leave us wanting more from these Gentry men and the whole entire family.
Kellen Gentry had a one night stand 2 years ago with a rich and snobby Taylor’s Briggs but he sees her 2 years later will he give her the time of day.
This book was a absolutely fantastic and my heart broke for Taylor and it showed that people can change and not everything is as it seems it is and kellan grew up changed so much .it was so good to see the whole Gentry family as well
Congratulations Core on another fantastic story and I’m reeling from a book hangover lol
After first reading about the Gentry family five years ago, I didn’t think that I could love this family anymore than I already did but Kellan’s story gave me a new favorite and is the best book about this family yet.
Every book about this family is guaranteed to bring angst, heat, and love. I was obsessed with the first generation of Gentry’s but the second is on a whole new level. This family always shows up when needed and there’s no tragedy that they can’t get through.
Kellan and Taylor have chemistry that is off the charts but the friendship between them was my favorite thing about this story. It’s beautiful and supportive but still has the underlying heat that I have come to expect from Cora Brent’s books.
This book broke my heart then mended it back together. I can’t wait to see what’s in store next.
If there’s one thing guaranteed to put a smile on my face it’s catching up with the Gentry World. I always become absorbed in each story, they’re books that strengthen my love for reading.
I love this crazy bunch with a passion, they’re not perfect by any means but thats what makes them special, for me..they’re real and it’s why I adore them.
Clash is a story in the Gentry Generations series, a spin off from the original and every bit as addictive. I highly recommend both series.
Kellan and Taylor have history a brief hook up two years ago that neither can forget. Now their paths clash once again just as Taylor really needs a friend.
I absolutely love Taylor she’s strong and independent with a sarcastic witty side that made me laugh. She’s had a tough time but she’s a fighter.
What can I say about Kellan? He’s a typical lads lad he’s had his wild side in the past but he’s a good guy. As with all the Gentrys family is important and Kellan will do anything for them.
The connection between Taylor and Kellan is powerful they have that history that neither can deny, it only adds to the tension and sexual chemistry building between them.
I loved all the back and forth it was fun seeing Kellan trying to do the right thing whilst lusting after Taylor.
The witty banter between them was hilarious they just get each others sarcasm.
A fantastic story from beginning to end, I felt every emotional moment whist reading Kellan and Taylor’s journey.
Here’s to the next instalment in the Gentry World, I can’t wait.
