Baya is Cole's little sister-and he's her patriarchal figure. Bryson has his own hesitation about pursuing Baya, but it's not necessarily Cole. The setting is college, and rightly so.
It was juvenile but kind of sweet. It was forgettable enough that 3/4 of the way through the book the exciting suspense part left me feeling like I'd already read this. Sure enough, I'm pretty positive I had. Unless perhaps theres another
attempted homicide after drugged and thrown from a bridge like ex girl friend scenario.
Like in the previous book or time I read it, the minor plot twist was quick, solved, and ultimately unsatisfactory. All that said, I'm not sure if I'll continue to read this author or not. She has some entertaining prose, if forgettable. She also has some questionable word choice, almost as if a depth of understanding in vocabulary is missing but accompanied by a thesaurus.
I love a good little sister and best friend torrid love affair book, but this one was overwrought in that sense. Cole and Bryson are disgusting college seniors-I'd be so ashamed of my brother. Cole is also too possessive, too alpha and I guess I just don't get that. In sum, this little sister of best friend forbidden love book was just not convincing or well done.
