She finds herself in way over her head, as she struggles to come to grips with meeting new friends, finding a boyfriend, avoiding the cliques of mean girls, and figuring out how to survive in such a hostile new world. She has trouble navigating this new world, where drinking and drugs seem the norm, and where social pressures build on her from every direction.

As things reach a low point, Rachel meets a mysterious boy from her school, Benji, a loner who keeps apart from the other kids, and who takes her on a ride on his motorcycle. They have an unforgettable night together in an amusement park—until something goes horribly wrong, and Benji shocks her by saving her life.

Ratings and reviews

The writing level is rudimentary at best, almost like a Twilight photocopy fanfiction. It is more of a novella than a real book. The pacing is also kind of wonky, with the vampire theme more of an after thought than an actual plot point. There is another flaw, trying to use the biggest, most convoluted words when a smaller one would suffice.The only redeeming factor is that the book is free!

It was okay at first (didn't really like all of the brand dropping) but then it got worse. The story is poorly written and the plot is just impossible. The main character is the most annoying character that a person could possibly create. The whole story just seems so far fetched. (I know that it's supposed "fantasy" but the reason why so many fantasy/sci-fi books are so good is because they are somewhat believable)

This book is absolutely horrid. The writing is elementary, the content is childish, and the editing is non-existent The main character is flat and boring as her attention is passed from guy to guy. This book made me want to print it out, use a red pen to mark it, and mail the pages to the author. Using Microsoft Word would have given better results than whatever the author used to type this atrocity out. Overall just a disappointing and painful experience.
