This book isn't a game changer in the genre, it's not groundbreaking, and it's not eye opening. What it WAS is exactly what I wanted to read at the time I found it. 
 We have a good girl who's had a hard life. She loves her sister and she loves her "foster father". She just wants to feel safe. Her sister has issues as does a friend that gets picked up along the way. Everyone and I do mean EVERYONE had their own demons to battle. Diego had his asshole moments but he never provided me with a deal breaker. 
 This isn't like most MC books. It wasn't gritty, raunchy, or spin offs of Sons of Anarchy. While I do like that type of book I wanted a good story and less grit. The angst was there but it wasn't overpowering. It is a bit long but I think that helped me care about the characters to see the boring and the exciting in their life. Id totally listen to the next book. While this author didn't knock my socks off she did show me her intriguing characters and get me to care about what happens to them. 
 Story 3.5 
 Narrators 4 
 the only negative thing was toward the end of the book the author had way to many POVs voicing their thoughts. With the female narrator reading in first person and the male reading in 3rd it was a bit confusing at times when the other POVs were brought in.
