Everything that you read about this book being dark, gritty, and harsh is completely true.  It is not like Finn's other books, it is a whole new world.Finn presents us with this intense love/hate relationship between Ashton and Derek.  He hates everything about her and because he shows his hatred to her, with no filter, she hates him right back with the same intensity.  I wanted nothing more than to punch Derek for being such a jerk face in the beginning.  He is one of those characters that you hate, I mean HATE.Finn wrote Ashton's character to where I felt everything she felt.  I was terrified in the beginning when she was first meeting Derek.  What transpired in that room made me absolutely nervous for her well being and I was sick about what was happening but I still needed to continue to read for that small hope of light that might come later on down the road (side note: that light is far, far away.)  The book starts with Ashton in a room with multiple men and they ask her to strip so that they can judge her appearance to see if she is `whore-worthy'.  The things they say about her, the things they do to her, makes you feel disgusted but you find that she has to do this, so she must.  What happens after this is just a cluster of craziness!  You must read it!I am just going to say that this book is dark but there is love in it; don't let the darkness deter you from trying.Oh and Elizabeth Finn, if you are reading this, please write another book...super fast!~BookWhisperer Reviewer MC~
