Overall this book was a pretty enjoyable, though dark, read. The violent climax felt a bit gratuitous, however.

Swallow (Low) Morris, is the odd ball in school. She has parents that have an open relationship and although the rest of the island is free loving, her family is still different. Low has never had friends and is craving friendship.
Freya is escaping the controversy her husband created by severely injuring a player during a sporting event. Sadly the other player later passed away and Max has taken a lot of blame for his death. Freya is not taking the isolation well, a social media sensation that has been forced to take a hiatus.
Jamie and Brian are looking for a fresh start. They have been struggling with fertility issues and they just want a clean start where they can escape the sadness that has haunted them in recent years.
One night Freya and Jamie swap partners and things get messy from there (as they tend to do).
The book was a fast read, I found that I didn't care much what happened to any of them.
