This story fell flat for me. I was expecting it to focus on the complexities of an abusive relationship, but instead it was full of instalove and one dimensional characters. It took less than a week for the main characters to fall madly in love which was about the time it took the abuse to begin. Gregg was obviously slated as the "good guy" choice for Zephyr, but he was manipulative and toxic as well, telling her that if she didn't want to be in a relationship with him then he didn't want to be friends.

The pacing at the beginning was really fast and simultaneously boring. It followed her boring normal daily activities in great detail and dropped in half page scenes for her father's return to her family and her best friend kissing her.

I was disappointed. If the description interests you, I'd recommend finding other YA books about abusive relationships. There are plenty out there, and most of them are much better than this.
