Not very engaging or well written

I bought this only because it said it was written by Renshaw. However, compared to some of her previous books I've read it wasn't very good. She struggles to make the central male character of Madden sound like a man. Instead, he sounds like a hormonal wah wah teenager. The central female character Brighton is oddly one dimensional to me. In fact, about 1/4 way through I had to double check that it was actually written by Renshaw because it was flat compared to her other books. I love her book "Country Nights" and if you read these side by side it is like night and day (no pun intended). It is like two different authors. I don't know what changed, but it has put me off her books. Plus, this book is all about 3rd wave feminism which turns my stomach.
