See all formats and editions

“As the bomb exploded, it filled the area with thick, black smoke and flaming debris. It would be a while before the smoke cleared and hotel security could see the extent of the damage. Everyone hoped it would be the best new year ever.” -BOYSTOWN Season Two

It’s a race against time to save those caught in the New Year’s Eve explosion. The survivors may not be the lucky ones as they struggle to restore normalcy to their lives. As the smoke clears, families are torn apart and lives are permanently altered.

Even more dangerous than the bomb, the Mancini-Ciancio feud heats up as family members fight for control and survival. At the same time, Jesse Morgan faces the fallout from his plan to break up his mother and her husband, Keith Colgan works to keep his past from destroying his future, Rachel Carson begins a plan that may have deadly consequences, and the search for the fourth Mancini brother reveals secrets that threaten to tear relationships apart forever.

It all culminates in a fabulous fundraiser like none that anyone in Boystown has ever experienced.

About the Author

Jake Biondi began BOYSTOWN in June of 2013 as an online story and intended to release one "episode" online per month, each ending in a cliffhanger. The story became so popular -- and the online reading audience grew so quickly -- that people from all over the country began to email him demanding to know what happened to their favorite characters and wanting the episodes to be released faster. They also had suggestions for future storylines. Excited by and grateful for his readers' responses to BOYSTOWN, Biondi began to write and release installments more quickly. In November of 2013, Biondi moved BOYSTOWN offline and published the first ten installments in book form as BOYSTOWN Season One. The book became an international hit, with fans all over the globe clamoring for more. BOYSTOWN Season Two was published in July of 2014. Season Three was released on May 1, 2015, Season Four was released on November 13, 2015, Season Five was released on June 1, 2016, Season Six was released on December 16, 2016, Season Seven was released on July 7, 2017, and Season Eight was released on February 14, 2018. Because of the popularity of the book series, fans have suggested that BOYSTOWN be turned into a television series. Biondi recently completed the TV scripts for the first season of BOYSTOWN and hopes to bring the series to television in the very near future.

BOYSTOWN SEASON 3 begun exactly where SEASON 2 has ended, at the New year's party for Emmett Mancini and Max Taylor's engagement. When bombs went off figuratively and literally, Rachel Carson and Marco Ciancio shattered the lives of many. The aftermath left me screaming at the top of my voice. Jake Biondi's pulled no punches. WHAATT?

If you thought this brilliant Author was cruel last SEASON, hold on to your hat, for he has slain many *dragons* this time around. He was at his best. I felt as though I was on a run away train, with all the twists and turns this book has taken. At times I cussed like a drunken sailor, or I felt sick for the trauma this Author has put me through. I read the entire book wishing bodily harm to Jake Biondi. All of my prenotions about this book were blown out the water, by this clever Author's eloquently woven tale.

The Mancinis and The Ciancios continued their modern-day Hatfields and McCoys feud, but the stake has gotten higher. WOW, I did not see this one coming. I can't wait for the secret that bound them together, to be revealed to everyone. How explosive that would be? I was happy to see that Gino still wore his *white hat*, and even Carlo seemed likeable, but Marco, how I wanted to bitch-slap him.

As a matter of fact, I wanted to bitch-slap a lot of the characters this season. Derek, Keith, Shawn/Ben, Marco and Rachel were well developed three dimensional, multifaceted villains, that had me *all turned-up*. I was most surprised by Keith's secret, which cemented how magnificent a writer this author truly is.
My interest was piqued by the new characters Dustin and Jensen whom I already don't trust.

This exhilarating book, has captivated me and held me spellbound, from the first written word until the last. Its cliffhanger ending was EPIC. I may hate you right now Jake Biondi, but your books are the BOMB DIGGITY. They all should be television episodes. I can hardly wait for SEASON 4.

WELL DONE JAKE!!! .........MUST READ!!!!

This is definitely a made for TV Series.... The lives of so many close friends are changed in the most dramatic ways. The story line remains strong carrying through from the first 2 Episodes. The characters are very well developed on so many levels. The story provides all the action, drama, suspense, emotions, and Sex that continue to cause the story to explode with unbelievable events. The story starts out with the New Year's Party that is celebrating Emmett and Max's engagement. But a film of Derek and Cole's love for each other is revealed, then all Hell breaks loose. As they evacuate the hotel, a limousine explodes and another scene takes place within the hotel which begins the changes of the lives of all these friends. The story is a very fast moving, action packed, story which is heart wrenching, gripping, sit on the edge of your seat episode. The characters are so intertwined with each other, that one affects the other. The Mancini and Ciancios Families feud continues to play a dangerous component with the Ciancios Family trying to destroy the other. I must say the lies, deceit, hurt, and the hate plays throughout the story. And yes there are some really BAD guys in this novel. Can these couples survive?? Emotionally and Physically.... Another cliff hanger with a lot of lives in the balance. Love these episodes. Jake has done a Brilliant job with this ongoing series that you just can't get away from. I feel that these first 3 episodes are just a real taste of what is yet to come. It is a Must Read!!

And the drama continues with season three of Jake Biondi's Boystown...

Last season (or book, if you prefer) ended with Derek's secret love for Cole being played out for everyone to see ... Joyelle running out, Derek hot on her heels. Cole chasing after Derek. And Michael rushing to ensure nothing happens. But something did happen. The car Joyelle was getting ready to get into exploded! Who survived? Who made it away unscathed? And whose lives will be forever changed? And thus begins season three...

The Mancini/Ciancino feud grows worse as an investigation begins into who put a bomb inside of the car that nearly killed four not-so-innocent lives and did kill two innocent people. Derek and Joyelle find their lives forever changed with an unspeakable loss. But with Joyelle's memory of that night gone, will Derek be able to patch up his marriage and start again? And what about his relationship with Cole? Of course, how far will Tyler go to get his chance to be with Joyelle?

They are not the only ones affected by the car explosion. Keith is distraught about almost losing Michael - but that is nothing compared to the threat that looms in the form of Rachel Carson. She knows his deepest secret, and unless he does exactly what she says, he runs the risk of losing Michael anyway. But is keeping Michael worth the price?

Meanwhile, Emmett and Max are thrilled at the prospect of opening a restaurant together. And when Emmett's father dies, he has no interest whatsoever in being a part of the family business that has cost his family so much - but Derek and Justin are determined to keep their business out of the hands of the Ciacinos. The only problem is, Justin can't keep his hands off of Gino Ciacino. But can their Romeo/Juliet romance be enough to keep the two families from killing each other?

At the same time, Logan and Jacqueline must come to terms with the sight that they walked in on - Jesse and Ben in bed together. But who was playing who in that scenario? Logan turns to the bottle again and Jacqueline simply shuts everyone out. But Ben knows Jacqueline's secret - he knows who Jesse's father is. If she doesn't stay with him, he will reveal her secret, which will change the lives of her son and the man who sired him!

And let's not leave out Gino and Marco, and the secret that their aunt holds regarding the fourth Mancini brother - one who has a connection with their own mother! But, what happens when Marco intercepts a private message meant for Gino and discovers not only the identity of that fourth brother, but also the fact that he is right there under their very noses?!

Then, there's the introduction of Jensen Stone and Dustin Alexander, a new waiter and a new manager for Emmett and Max's new restaurant. Each of them has his own secret, and those secrets will no doubt come into play in coming books...

Mysteries abound! Who is the Mancini brother? Who is Jesse's father? And who is so determined to seek revenge that he will set up Emmett and Max's new restaurant to explode during a pre-opening benefit for Cole's mother and others fighting cancer? Season three definitely has one heck of an explosive cliffhanger (pun fully intended!), for which I cannot wait for Season Four!

Biondi is by far a talented writer, and he has the perfect feel and format for a nighttime soap opera - there simply has to be a way to either get him writing a night soap, or turn this series into a soap opera!

Love, Sex, Affairs and Libido. That was the slogan of the both previous books in the series.

Hate, Vengeance, Libido and HATRED is the slogan of the third book. Honestly, I have never met this HUGE number of people in one book, who plan to get rid of their enemies/rivals in THIS radical way. And I don't know if I can tolerate it any longer. Not this quantity of hatred, but this quantity of drama that accompanies the story.

I warn you again, you have to be in the mood for a written soap opera that is overloaded with DRAMA. Of course ONLY in case, you're NOT a passionate fan of old Mexican soap operas. If you ARE, then it is a MUST READ for you.

If you decide to give it a try(after all my mild warnings) - don't take it too seriously, make you a list with the name of all MCs (there are many of them!) and how ALL of them are connected with each other. Just a friendly advice.

You'll thank me after. Because I don't think that there are too many hard-boiled readers who can read all three already existed books in one sitting. And if you read them with a year/a half of a year interval you'll no longer know who is who. Just a friendly advice.

Warning: READING THIS SERIES IS NOT HEALTHY. I'm already damaged. So, I don't care.

Boystown goes darker for Season 3

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 29, 2015

Verified Purchase

How on earth are you expected to give a justifiable review, when each season goes from strength to strength? Try as I might, without giving any of the plotlines away, I will do just that! To read the seasons one straight after the other was like reading one mega-long novel that has left me hanging on for the next season...

...Jake Biondi successfully thrills us readers once again, with his latest season of Boystown. Season 3 is delivered in such a way that it outdoes classic edge-of-your seat soaps such as Dallas, Dynasty and Knots Landing. With plenty of drama, twists and shocks occurring throughout the season, the reader is not left disappointed as we delve into the relationships and the backstabbing of the Boystown residents, with plotline after plotline slowly and dramatically being unravelled.

However, where Season 2 became quite sexy in it's delivery, this time the season takes a much darker turn for some of the main characters: Max, Jesse, Keith, Emmett, Ben and Derek are prime examples. The entire season is nothing short of a roller coaster ride from beginning to end, where a plethora of emotions will be experienced against each and every character.

Jake's development of the characters - as well as the introduction of two or three new ones in this latest season - is excellent from season to season. And you easily find yourself routing for, or detesting more, each of the individual characters as their storylines unfold.

Jesse and Keith continue to annoy me - whether Jake intended the characters to be annoying, I'm not sure - but I just want to slap them both, each time they more or less open their mouths! (I find them overly negative, whiny and interfering but you can't have a cast of perfect characters!) Having said that, both characters had quite interesting arcs to their particular storylines in this season...and this may very well cause you to raise a well manicured eyebrow as you read!!! David and Tyler, I find a tad insipid but that may be due to their characters not having the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential throughout the season, as there was so much more going on to invest any real emotion into them. Maybe this will all change in season 4 - IF they make it into season 4!!!! My favourite characters still remain as Emmett, Derek and Cole (Michael I just picture as a superhot cop, who will turn you weak at the knees as soon as look at him!) But, Gino is now beginning to emerge as a front-runner favourite for me. For a supposed bitter enemy of the Mancini's, he's a real sweetheart.

In short, Boystown has turned out to be nothing short of an amazing soap opera for those who enjoy a thoroughly entertaining read that will have you gasping and twiddling your hair (not that I have any to twiddle, so I am speaking proverbially) with bated anticipation. This particular season has been left on a whopper of a cliff-hanger and I am more than convinced that one or two of the main cast will not survive into season 4!!!! Who will survive? How will Jake top this season? I, for one, will be on tenterhooks until season 4 is released, so I can find out the answers to these questions...and more! (It's like re-living those agonising months between Dallas seasons all over again! I can't bear it).

So, well done Jake...please don't let it be too long before I can re-visit Boystown once again. There are births, deaths and marriages that are eagerly anticipated and awaited.
