Life is simple for high school senior, Sienna Whitfield. With a few good friends, a camera, and a dream, she has everything she needs to be happy. But when Jordan Rubio, the most popular girl at Haskins High, makes her mad, she decides to use the power of photography to right a few social wrongs. As if that doesn’t cause enough drama in her life, she realizes she’s falling for the new guy, Lee Franklin. Strong and protective, he’s just what she needs to survive the craziness she’s stirred up at school. If only she didn’t have to keep her feelings for Lee a secret from her mom…
My Review: 4 Stars

Candid was a great high school romance with a hint of forbidden love and revenge!

I loved the concept of using photography to stir up the social ladder pot a bit!  In the book Sienna took pictures to expose the unnoticed that deserved to be popular and expose the popular that deserved to be social outcastes.  When she does this she finds how much power she has with her photography and how much danger she can get herself into for stirring up all this drama.  I thought the common "don't stick to the status quo" high school theme was portrayed nicely in Candid and I really loved the different take Michelle Pennington brought to it!

Now I gotta talk about Lee...you know I always got to give my take on the Hottie of each book.  Let me tell you Michelle Pennington can write some hotness! I loved Lee! He's a great guy from the beginning and the second you see him all you can do is Swoooon.  He's protective, patient, and freakin' cute!  Really, he has it all!

Sienna was pretty awesome herself.  She is a photography nerd that typically doesn't care what people think of her t-shirt and jean wardrobe.  She grew as a character a lot in Candid and I'm very interested to see how she continues to grow in Focused.

I recommend Candid to anyone who likes a sweet high school romance with some bumps in the road.  I can't wait for Focused!
