Off Limits had me holding on to the edge of my seat half the time, and the other half of the time I was talking back to the characters. My husband said, "It must be a gripping good book the way you're acting." Gripping is an understatement for this book. The only bad thing about this book is it ended too soon.This story takes the lives of two polar opposite girls and throws them together out of necessity. Megan is going to an exclusive school on a scholarship and barely has enough food to eat without going to the local food bank. She's keeping that a secret from Lindsay, a popular rich girl at school who's never known what it's like to do without material things. But she knows what it's like to live without a mother who cares for you. These two young women have lifestyles that are so disparate from each other, yet they're able to come together and find out they aren't so very different after all.Gripping is an understatement for this book. I've read Renee's other book, Off Leash, and it was just as good. This is an author to make you sit up and take notice.
