I had a really hard time liking Jake. However, the story was addictive. I just had to keep reading to find out what happened to Charley because she was great. 
 Lowe (Claudia's friend) was definitely my favourite in the story. I do wish the ending of Into the Deep had been a little different. Jake did not deserve Charley. The bit in his point of view helped me like him a little better though.
