Regrettably, he has no choice.Kat feels invisible in her mansion of a home six months after losing her older brother in a fatal car crash and will do anything to get her parents’ attention.

.................................... My Thoughts ....................................
In Short
- A slow start but worth the wait.
- Brilliant and strong characters
- Loved the religious side of the book, unique and different.
In Long
Chaste takes quite a common storyline and turns it into a unique and refreshing read which tackles subjects that not many other authors seem to tackle. I always admire an author for doing this.
I really enjoyed the religious side of the book. I'm not religious myself so it was kind of a learning curve for me and I found this side of it very interesting and was definitely a factor in what kept me interested as it really did effect the characters day to day lives.
Something else which I found really interesting was that Chaste involved a bad girl and a good guy, crazy right?! But it totally works! I found myself loving the sweetness that is Quinn and everything about him. I was glad he did show his not just a robot though and that he does find things hard to resist.
Chaste is really made special by the characters. They are all very strong and well built and developed characters. You know where you are with them and I felt like I got to know them very well. Like best friends do.
Thank you, Jodie. I love your review! :-)
