Mason Kade is not known to be nice. He is ruthless, manipulative, and unforgiving. Most will say that he is a jerk and he is to those that cross him or cross his loved ones. However, he does not want to be who he is. He does not enjoy hurting others, but there is no limit to the lengths he will go to protect himself and his brother. This is the story of how he came to be and this is why so many … many love Mason Kade.
This is a story of a destroyed family and the effects it had on a son.

I love this little sneak peek into Mason’s mind. Tijan allows us to take a peek into Mason’s life before Fallen Crest High, we get to see what life was like in the Kade household and what shaped and molded Mason into who he is today. Logan has this unbreakable love and respect for Mason because he raised Logan. He always put Logan’s needs first and to be able to witness it unfold was a gift. And to be able to see Samantha Stratton for the first time through Mason’s eyes, thank you Tijan so much for sharing all of this with us.

This gives us the history of the Kade Brothers and what drove Mason to turn out the way he did. I have a new appreciation for this guy. The dynamics between Mason and Logan is special. I really enjoyed this 5 star read.
If you haven’t yet discovered the fallen crest world you NEED to get into it !! And start here – it’s such a great introduction to Mason and Logan and you will not want to stop !!!
Masons book gives a great glimpse into the background of who these boys are . I’ll be clear this book in itself is not a romance it’s emotional and sad but it’s the lead up to one of the best series I’ve ever read !!
I highly highly recommend it !!! This is the third time I’ve read it and I devoured it in one sitting and would much rather start the next book then go to work today haha
This was reviewed about 2yrs ago, I don’t know where it went, but it’s causing me to do a re-read, so yay!….lol
I remember this series as my guily pleasure read of the year!
I devoured this one, and the next and the next, till I read them all.
I was amazed at how much I loved all the teenage drama and how invested I got in the love triangles.
I highly recommend this entire series!
This was how Mason became the badass AlphaHole we come to love in this series. It will make you fall for him as I have!

Mason (Fallen Crest Series Book #0.5)
This is a really good insight to how Mason & Logan became so close & inseparable. They’ve lived in a mansion, had anything they wanted but never what they needed – their Parents affection & attention! Their parents eventually split up & divorce, it’s almost a relief to them, they won’t hear their Mum sobbing every night every night now, while their Dad’s out dipping his wick in anything that moves!!
Mason’s anger & rage keeps growing – the girls machinations to get close to them really gets to Mason, especially when Logan gets caught in the crossfire! He won’t stand for more people hurting him, their Parents have already hurt him enough. The stuff all of these kids do & say for their ages, it’s scary!!
This a good, insightful & explosive look in to the boys just before Samantha moves in with them!!

Holy buckets of drama Batman! It’s like a train wreck, you can’t look away. Mason must have magical junk. Why do all the girls want to sleep with him? And if you sleep or speak to him, you’re screwed, and not in a good way. Bitches be crazy up in there!!! Seriously, this is like a soap opera. Uh, Mason and Logan’s dad…douche canoe and man whore alert! I must read more. All this drama can’t be good for your soul, but I need to find out what’s going to happen!
This is the first book by Tijan I have read. I had this on my Kindle for ages but hadn’t got around to reading it. Boy, I am kicking myself now. I absolutely love this and struggled to put it down. I didn’t want to have to deal with real life problems (like work and cooking and such) because it took me away from reading.
Diving right into book one now, but I think this book really helps to set the scene and gives us a look at what happened to influence how Mason turns out as a young man.
My all time favorite book boyfriend. MASON !
Loved reading about Mason’s thoughts before he ever meets Sam and how he deals with Logan, his dad, Kate, and more. Really wish the author would do more of book 1 from Mason and Logan’s POV.
You know it’s funny how a lot of people say they wish they were rich. But the rich are worse or have gone through the same thing as people who aren’t broke. Mason, takes care of his brother Logan like other children who are the oldest have taken care of their siblings or sibling. This actually real life situation, that goes on where the parents argue divorce and children see everything. Some end up being reckless. And I figure Mason was younger in this book I am assuming Logan has to be either 14 or 15. Got to a part where Mason mentions that Logan was almost fifteen and in the eight grade. Ha, I knew I been right. But I thought when you are in the right grade you be like 13 turning 14. Unless u started late or fail a grade. Interesting. Since he’s SMART! and TOP OF HIS CLASS. Maybe he just turns 14 at the end of eight grade shoot.
I have to say this Logan was on his Thotism at an early age ain’t it lmao. Dang sheesh. And Jeez, why do everyone have a problem with Mason. He must look mean or something whereas his brother Logan don’t. Maybe cause Mason is aggressive and Logan is a big goof.
Also, I finally see where their story leads with Tate hurting Logan, I should’ve read this book before part 1. And what they did to Marissa was wrong, I can’t stand bullies. But in part 1 and 2 I didn’t hear anything at all about Kate lmao what happen to her she disappeared lmao.
I wish Mason, was hilarious as he was in this book. Because in theory there two books he was just completely mean, hoping as I listen to part 3 on audible he is funny.
