I'm not a great reader of YA romance, but anything sapphic is an exception. I liked the development of Alex a great deal and the chemistry was palpable (due to the authors marriage in some part) however, the characters felt very much like a trope and a replication of a lot of Bad boy/good girl lit just with 'Alex' being presumably short for Alexandra this time. It felt like she got far more development externally of the central relationship than Molly was afforded. Furthermore the culmination of Cora's storyline was unsatisfactory for me and it took me out of the conclusion.
