From what i could gather, this is not the first book in the series. That is both unfortunate and fortunate. Unfortunate because i may have missed some things, but it is fortunate because I read this one. One of the aspects of this tale that caught was the taunt three way between Bo, Brooklyn, and Ruth. The scenario could have easily been from a reality television show but well written. Add in the fact that Brooklyn has an ailment, and you've got heavy conflict.Ironically, there is  biblical reference here but not along the same happy ending. The characters' names, Bo and Ruth, come directly from religious lore. Bo being short for Boaz, while Ruth is the actual namesake. It makes me wonder was this intentional by author. Hmmm. for me, it was a bit humorous.Don't judge me but i really got into Ruth. She reminded me of Alexis Colby from the "Dynasty" tv show. She was a classic villain. And truthfully, she pulled me into the story. Now i have to go back and read the first one. Bravo!!!
