It isn't well-written. The situations are unnatural to the story line the plot is non-existent. Did not enjoy this one at all.

17 yo FMC gets sent to live with her dad's step-brother, who is a full adult with 20ish yr old sons. They all skate her for sex, sometimes as the same time. It starts with the dad though. When she's 17. Gross. Pedophilia isn't ok. What an idiotic plot point.

I didn't love this book, but I also didn't hate it. A solid like, if you will. I did feel it was kind of slow, and the beginning felt a little icky with Tiernan only being 17. Honestly, it did almost end up in the DNF pile in the beginning, but I'm glad I didn't give up on it. I did enjoy the development though of all of the main characters, and the ending really did make my heart happy.
