Honestly this was disappointing. I didn't love Derek. He pushed Sara into sexual situations she seemed to be unsure of, as if he could just change her mind. I didn't love his personality in the beginning. It felt like Sara didn't really have any big changes throughout the book and was just waiting for Derek. The relationship between the two should've been developed more, and there was plenty of content that could've been sacrificed to do that. The plot twist during the last 30 pages felt forced as a way to wrap up the story with a bow, and it just didn't need that.
