A page turner and mostly well written apart from the many grammatical errors and the very oddly written sex scenes (strangest I have ever read). Definitely not a book for those easily upset by sensitive topics. I couldn't put it down and very much enjoyed it. It was nice to read something more edgy with characters that are not typical of this genre. If the author could have the book properly edited and fix the strangely jumpy sex scenes to flow better it would be a very good book.

completely agree with the review by Heather. This books is messed up, I read about half of it, but it's unbearable...the main character taking advantage of the female over whatever guise is despicable

Well written, but the ending was terribly rushed. They went from disliking each other and always being at odds to suddenly being in love for absolutely no reason.
