Okay, I want to start by saying I enjoyed this book. It was a good story that flowed well and kept me reading. However, I'll be honest....I was disappointed by the lack of love story/lemons. When I saw "Mature YA" I assumed that meant it was on the verge of being 'adult'. While I kept waiting for the "2 steps below 50 Shades" to happen, all I got was "10 steps below Hunger Games". It's not really violent...although there are references to some past violence. It's not sexual in any way...although there are hints to past abuse. There isn't even a real kiss. So, not sure why the warning and it definitely misled me into thinking it was going to be more risque than it was. Even Twilight was about 10 times more violent/x-rated than this. With that said, it was a good book that I enjoyed.
