Betrayal by Pippa DaCosta
4.0
I might be bias...
So a friend sent this to me a couple years ago because he had gotten the e-book for free on amazon, started reading it and there were some kinda scary similarities to the writing he and I do together; a main character called Caleb who Captains a ship, hates his dad, loves drinking and sex, excellent fighter but a little self destructive... so that's why I started reading. There were more similarities throughout the story but they're spoiler-y so I won't go on. Anyway - that alone made me read the whole thing within a couple days, and probably because my friend and I were reading it simultaneously and talking about how the characters were similar to our own....
but I actually really did enjoy this. Which was surprising considering it was free, and I think it still is (at least the e-book version) on amazon. The characters are interesting, it's got a good pace that keeps you interested, an easy, enjoyable read with a twist ending that had me IMMEDIATELY buying the second book to continue reading.
It's also inspired me to continue writing my own novel so... that's good as well!!
