ARC provided by Netgally for my honest review

This book made me so mad because of the fact that it was so real, how a girl or women could go thru this.

Mia Abbot-Renou is a 17yr old high school student with a politician father. He pretty much chooses his career over her and so she is left by herself quite often. Mia goes to a party where she is drugged and raped by a guy she knows and his friend. When her family finds out no one goes to the hospital to help her. They care more about hiding it from the media.

The simple fact that everyone who is suppose to love and protect Mia has basically put the image of her rape under the rug so that they will be out of the public eye. They choose to make her not admit to the police the name of her rapist, that she doesn't really remember who raped her. The are either blind or choose not to see how this had affected her way of life, no one should have to go thru what poor Mia has. She know that she is doing wrong by not admitting the truth, she now know there are others not just her. One of the cops how found her is Dom she sees him as her guardian angel, hopefully with his help she will tell the truth.

Hopefully as the rest of this series of novella's are realesed she changes her mind. I can't wait for the other books, I need to read more about how this story transpires.

I really enjoyed this book, is just that many women in this world who have been raped and have political ties have been in Mia shoes, but we don't ever hear about it because like this story they try to or do in fact sweep it under the rug.

I would definitely recommend this book to my friends.
