I really enjoyed reading The Trap. The characters are very easy to relate to and the story was realistic in many ways. I really felt for Paige because I have been where she is. I was a teenage mom at 17 and boyfriend at the time was 20 and when things got scary, hard and reality started to set in on how his life was fixing to change completely he walked out just like Mitch did to Paige. I went through my whole pregnancy, labor and first few months of our son's life without him just like Paige in this story has done. The pain and heartache she felt was very much real. I loved the part of the book after her daughter is born and her baby becomes everything to her. Even though Paige still loves Mitch he isn't what's important to her anymore (or at least right now) because her daughter is the only thing that matters. The author couldn't have been anymore realistic with that point of view from Paige. I did the exact same thing when I held my son for the first time. I Look forward to reading the next book in Paige and Mitch's story. I'd like to see Mitch make things right for Him, Paige and their daughter. I know not all teen love stories have a happy ending especially when a teen pregnancy is thrown into the mix but sometimes miracles do happen. My husband and I are living proof of that. My husband came to his senses when our son was 2 months old now 12 years later we are stronger than ever before. I would like to see Paige and Mitch turn out the same way!
