Them Bones

This book was something! It really takes it to a raw and gritty place. I wouldn't call this a romance in the fluffy sense of the word. Its much more than that and if you are looking for a romance... I wouldn't pick this one up unless you are ok with it being dark

There are way too many POV for me and no one got a HEA at all. It centers around Laney, Dustin and Shane. Shane, a tennager couch surfing and hungry comes across Dustin, 10 years old who gives him food. he lives with his 14 year old sister Laney in a home their brother owns from selling drugs and rarely an adult to take care of them.

Shane ends up moving in and taking care of the siblings while trying to fight his feelings for Laney. Nothing happens while she is under age and there really is a lot of an age gap 14/17 but it still didn't sit really well with me. She could easily have been 16 when they met and it would have packed the same punch without making it weird.

Its really well written and the narration was good.
