Rating: 5 out of 5

Jona is a girl who has a world of hurt.  She uses her smart tongue to hide her true emotions.  Both her tongue and actions get her into a ton of trouble which in the end forces her to deal with something she never wanted anything to do with  - her mother.  The twist comes with her mother's "helper" Julian who softens her in a way that she never wanted.  The author does a wonderful job of bringing a certain 'realness' to the character Jona in all her harsh glory.  Julian is what you would expect and then some (don't want to create spoilers).  The love in the novel is both heavenly and earthly all at once!  You should read this book.  I actually found it quite touching and would read it again.  There is some cussing at the start of the novel but that gradually peters out as she undergoes some level of change.I like this novel so much that I can actually see it as a movie.  With the right actors it would be most excellent.
