Wow, I am not sure where even to start with this horribly written book. I am appalled by the number of high ratings and good review that it received because I found not a single redeeming quality. The story line was poorly thought out and unlikely - a girl with a known, decent,  living father spending a month in an orphanage in this day and age, a step mom who moonlighted as a stripper until she found a job as ....wait for it.....a psychiatrist (!) in the newspaper, a job which she just happens to be qualified for but apparently not enough to do that first instead of stripping, within 12 years of this job change they afforded a mansion that was so fancy that the bedroom windows had to be replaced with a crane, a girl who every time she sneezes injures herself or someone else, an entire step family who laughs because she's "oblivious" that her step brother likes her, every time her step brother flirts with her she calls it sexual harassment but likes to kiss him and he likes to lick her, and her father's boss made him set the boss's daughter up with his step son (or lose his job) and of course the girl is a "skank" who tries to sleep with first the step brother and then our heroine who is dressed up like a guy and then tries to kill the heroine because of the step brother but is still allowed to stay at the house with the family, and last but not least the step brother apologizes for kissing her when in fact he was performing CPR after she fell off a yacht and drowned. I wasn't sure whether to laugh at the absurdity or cry for the time wasted. Every time the story chanced upon something worth developing it changed into some unbelievable and sometimes downright disturbing scenario. I immediately returned this book for a refund upon finishing it and most definitely would not ever recommend this book or this author and in fact would discourage anyone from wasting their time.
