This book is about Skylar who is 17 and has ALWAYS been about hard work and making the grades to go to college. Even though she liked boys she never peaked any interests in them until in walks Kasey. Sky gives Kasey a chance AND her virginity and all hell,breaks loose in her life. Kasey is about as crazy as they come and likes to beat women and Sky isn't an exception. After finally deciding enough is enough and decides to leave Kasey she realizes that Kasey has given her a "parting gift". Dominic was Kasey's first love and also her best friend Kyla's brother he steps in one day to stop Kasey from beating on Sky. After seeing Kasey put his hands on Sky it awakens feelings within for Sky that he thought were gone. Kyla, Marci, & Laci are there as best friends should be and have Sky's back as friends should.The whole Tiffani being at Dominic's trap house and answering his phone when Sky called was a bit much. Especially with everything that was happening with Tiffani and Kasey and then he and Skylar. Ok all this back & forth with Skylar and Dominic started to get on my nerves. He gave her all he had Tiffani messed that up AGAIN. He apologized over and over to Skylar when she told him to "kick rocks" he does. She decides she made a mistake goes to find him but gets mad when she sees wet stains on his boxers and punches him. Like she didn't even give him a chance to explain nothing happen. But, it seems she does that all the time with him just being immature but then I realized she IS 17 after all. So this behavior is to be expected from someone of her age but none the less it is annoying lol.Now up until this point I was liking the book a lot but then it's like every guy is going all psycho over Skylar. "She mine why can't she see that?" or "She belongs to me she will always belong to me". I mean one guy being that way is fine but dern near EVERY guy she interacts with *insert eye roll* has these thoughts that's just too much. There wasn't anything special about her that they author wrote for guys to act this way about her. It's like after Skylar lost her virginity she was just giving it up to everybody! Within a 2-3 mos span she had sex with 3 diff guys & two of them in less than like 2 weeks!Sky never gave herself a chance to be alone she was moving from one guy to another. I ended up not liking the book once it was all over. The fact that there will be a second book doesnt interest me at all. The storyline was ok but the book lacked character development it started out good but then it just lost me and my interest.Sent from my iPad2
