Rating: 5 out of 5

This book pulled me in right away. I wanted things to go a certain way, and kept turning the page hoping things would work out the way I wanted them to. Then there was a twist in the story that surprised me, and now I had to find out what happened. Each twist and turn in the story kept me wanting to know more. Erin has a problem with her mother who is very pushy toward her about being better at tennis. The mother is clearly trying to live vicariously through her daughter, trying to get her to succeed at something that she had been good at, but never good enough that she felt she'd really accomplished anything, so she pushed this burden off on her daughter. I think a lot of people can relate to this mother daughter/ parent child struggle. There were also other characters in the story that I became attached to. Unexpected things happened to these characters, almost leaving me wanting a sequel, or perhaps even a series. The ironic twist ending also set me up as a reader to want to know more about what happens next to all of these characters. I really hope this author makes this story into a series.
