So. Elle Kennedy is undoubtedly one of the worst current, more famous authors out there.
The book was fine, readable, up until the casual misogyny, racism (that I assume both authors shouldn't have written in) and homophobia, coupled with multiple f-slurs (which also- authors, queer or not- shouldn't have tried to reclaim). What really made me lose it was at 95% of my ebook, where one of the characters says, and I quote, "I could announce I wanted to live my life as a transsexual vampire yeti, and they’d still say ‘Oh, Jamie. You’re so cute.’" I might be reading too much into this, but since when is being trans- (-sexual or -gender) a bad thing? Where one shouldn't need the love they deserve for being who they are? Which is also a big plot of the book, being queer and homophobia. The irony.
Anyways, this book really... sucked. But seriously. Making being trans out to be a bad thing was the cherry on top.
