When Echo Kelly is invited on a backpacking trip throughout the UK, she jumps at the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, refusing to let one fleeting past exchange stop her.
At least, that’s what she’s convinced herself of, until the moment she sees him again. It’s not the one-time “run-in” she was expecting, and therefore prepared to handle.
Instead, it’s an announcement she never saw coming…he’s the tour guide.
She’s got no backup plan for that.

Kingston knew what it meant the moment Echo accepted the offer. And when he lays eyes on her, standing in his childhood home, her fate is sealed forever. There’s not a damn thing that will stop him from finally claiming what’s always been his.
Her.
Not everyone gets a second chance—and Kingston Hawthorne sure as hell isn’t going to let his slip away.
Angie’s Thoughts:
This was a great conclusion to a good series! Saying that you have to read Filthy Foreign Exchange Student before you even read the second book!
I loved seeing Kingston groveling trying to win Echo back and get her to understand what exactly happened and why he left. It was a change of pace from the 1st book. He wasn’t so arrogant and cocky, sure of himself, yea but that cockiness was gone. I love this Kingston.
Echo thought she was going to backpack through Europe. Just enjoy seeing everything she longed to see and not the last person she didn’t want to see. She’s so stubborn that I sometimes wanted to smack her upside her head. But I also love seeing how much she grew from that teenager to more of a young adult even though she’s only 18. I also love the friendship between her and Nat! It reminded me of me and my best friend in high school.
Overall I love Filthy Foreign Exchange Student 2 better than I did the first. Everything I felt that was lacking in the first, hot, passionate, sex, was in this one. Even a surprise voyeur scene! I wanted more from the ending but I don’t think it’ll be the last we hear from these characters.
Micah’s Thoughts:
Have you been dying for this book? I know it hasn’t been long but…I hate cliffhangers. I don’t like being left out in the wind, waiting for authors to give me scraps of information on my favorite characters and their actions. I often think of Kingston and Echo.
I didn’t like how they left things in book one-with Echo having fallen down the stairs and broken her arm after Kingston “held” a party at her house. BUT! Echo is going to take a trip all over Europe! (and you know Kingston has his hands in that).
So, let’s start off by saying that you NEED to have read book 1. There isn’t a summary at the beginning, or not enough of one to get you caught up. The story starts when Echo is leaving for her grand adventure in Europe-backpacking over a lot of countries. She is very excited and has been assured that Kingston is not involved. He has not contacted her at all since the “incident” and this has left her heartbroken. However, when she arrives at their first stop on the journey, who does she see? Well, it wouldn’t be much of a story if the mighty Kingston wasn’t in there! HE just happens to be her tour guide…for the WHOLE tour.
Not to be detoured on her fun, she befriends others and sets out to stay away from him. And his plans are quite the opposite. Free of the constraints of first book (moral dilemma of sharing a house and her being underage), Kingston is free to put the moves on Echo. And wow, does he ever! And he doesn’t just want her for a few weeks-he wants the commitment package.
The venue plays host to a barrage of gorgeous imagery. Kisses at the top of the Eiffel Tower? I’ll take one, please. Abbey Road? Um, yes.
And throughout this all, we get the sweet relationship building of Kingston and Echo. What I did miss was their hilarious banter. Echo did get that with Natalie, but I missed Kingston’s wit. I felt it was lacking in his character. Maybe his balls got chopped off in love…or something like that.
In the end, I would give it 4.25 stars. Good, solid, fast read. Great ending to these characters. And I wouldn’t mind waking up in Scotland with Kingston. #justsayin’
The Verdict:

EXCERPT:
“And now, we play my way. Kingston,” she enunciates. “How do you know him?”
I flop down on the bed and kick off my shoes. “Long, boring story.”
“Got an hour, so spill.” She sits across from me, in the room’s lone chair. “That’s part of the roommate agreement, no secrets when it comes to guys.”
