I am new to the whole New Adult genre, and it is probably about 15 years too late for me, so I am not the target audience for this one. It was an easy read. The romance was nice. The first half was better than the last. This book features brings up some big issues... which the characters promptly forget about because they want to bang. I feel like, either deal with the actual issues the characters are dealing with, or be a romance novel. Don't talk about how your dad's a pedo and then immediately sex your boyfriend up, unless that is part of the character's arc for showing how she's dealing with pain. Spoiler alert: it's not. It's true love, because if someone accepts bad things about you and has sex with you then it must be love. I know it's a romance novel, but in real life, people find this false sense of closeness when they bond over sex and trauma that rarely works out. 
 Like I said I'm not the target audience -\_(tsu)_/-
