18yo Jane has lived her life among the LA elite because her father is a chauffeur within the music industry. As long as Jane can remember, she has had a crush on Eddie Sarfian, a handsome, rich kid whose family Jane’s dad has driven around. When Eddie finally pays attention to Jane, it's not what she hoped for, but because the attention is always what Jane has wanted, she clings to the possibility. Eddie’s brother, Fen, however has a genuine intense crush on Jane and is trying to show her how he feels, but Jane is clueless about Eddie's problems for a long time before she fully recognizes she might have feelings for Fen as well.
I had a hard time liking the characters, especially Fen who is too dramatic and full of angst. Jane is so obsessed with Eddie and a boyfriend that she loses all self respect and makes bad life choices. The ending wasn’t realistic and overall left a bad taste in my mouth. The sexual content and drug use is frequent and gross. Fen and Eddie are of Armenian descent. Jane is white.
