For being a new author, Kathleen Peacock didn't do too bad of a job, but this story did have cliché moments like the love triangle. Almost rolled my eyes at that one, but kept reading. The plot was a little shallow at times as well, Jason was a bit over dramatic for my liking. Granted his character was going through a lot of emotional turmoil, but it didn't feel real enough. Also The plot twist didn't seem as dramatic as it should have been either. I think more hints were needed to make the readers begin to puzzle it out for themselves, draw out the suspense so readers are more involved and the big reveal hits them just as hard as it does the characters. Like I said, not a bad debut, but I'm not sure I would continue to read the series as this book didn't draw me in so well.
