Review: Damaged people seem to find each other

This is a story about Owen and Maria. Both are very damaged individuals in serious need of professional counseling. Maria's best friend is very supportive and protective of Maria. The people and the relationships really sucked me in, but I felt the story was almost too much for the author. I often questioned her word choices and wondered at some of the situations. At times the characters seemed way younger than their years and experience, and did things I didn't feel one would do in their situations.  I felt it had a bit too much high-schooly mega-drama to be a college senior level story. I also found it hard to believe Maria would still be having nightmares regularly 7 years after a one-time trauma. But I liked Owen and Maria and I was glad they managed to limp along and find ways to heal. As it stands, I think this is an okay read. I paid $3.99 for it and I don't think it's worth any more than that for sure.
