Drama. Lies. Sex.
Welcome to Palm South University.
The weather isn’t the only thing heating up in South Florida. At a school where fraternities and sororities don’t exactly play by the rules, relationships are bound to be tested. Parties and sex are definitely key ingredients in the Palm South recipe, but what happens when family issues, secret lives, and unrequited love get tossed in the mix?
Follow Cassie, Bear, Jess, Skyler, Erin, Ashlei, and Adam as they tackle college at a small, private beach town university. Written in television drama form, each episode of this serial will pull you deeper and deeper into the world of PSU.
Where the sun is hot and the clothes are scarce, anything can happen.
Every time I have tried to write this review, I start to cry. It’s not because Season Two has come to and end. It’s what this episode is about.
One of the sorority girls is raped in this episode. This is never an easy subject to handle or even read about it. Kandi does a commendable job on writing about this. She doesn’t sugarcoat it but she also gets the point across that unfortunately rape happens a lot more than people realize at colleges around the country. And her statistics at the end will shock you.
Without taking away from the prominent message Kandi wants us to see, this episode is her best to date. The sorority girls are starting to grow up. They are beginning to open their eyes to the bigger picture. They are realizing that together, they are a force to be reckon with.
“We may try to handle the world on our shoulders…but we’re a force to be reckoned with. We’re a unit. We’re a family.”
There is a lot that goes down between Cassie, Adam and Grayson; Bear and Shawna; Jess and Jarrett. I am really excited to see what Kandi brings us next season – who returns, who doesn’t. And whomever returns – will they be the same person they were before?
Kandi started writing back in the 4th grade after reading the first Harry Potter installment. In 6th grade, she wrote and edited her own newspaper and distributed to her classmates. Eventually, the principal caught on and the newspaper was quickly halted, though Kandi tried fighting for her “freedom of press.” She took particular interest in writing romance after college, as she has always been a die hard hopeless romantic (like most girls brought up on Disney movies).
When Kandi isn’t working or writing, you can find her reading books of all kinds, talking with her extremely vocal cat, and spending time with her friends and family. She enjoys beach days, movie marathons, live music, craft beer and sweet wine – not necessarily in that order.
