He’s a very brilliant student who has a shot at an academic scholarship for college but he has difficulty expressing his feelings or talking to other people other than his family. This, in turn, has contributed on his reputation as a social inept weirdo at his school. When their father left them 5 years ago, his father’s responsibilities were transferred on his shoulders. LOCHAN WHITELY. He’s the eldest in the family. They may still be teenagers but they stopped being one ever since their mother stopped acting like a parent to them. The story is told in two alternating point of views: Lochan’s and Maya’s.

I cannot count how many times I put down this book and debated whether I continue reading it or not but in the end, my curiosity won. In some ways, I didn’t like the story because it’s incestuous. Like in the sense of how the writer constructed a tragic love story that will give its reader a roller coaster ride of emotions. I really don’t know if I like this book or not. As the novel careens toward an explosive and shocking finale, only one thing is certain: a love this devastating has no happy ending. And yet, they cannot stop what feels so incredibly right. They know their relationship is wrong and cannot possibly continue. Their clandestine romance quickly blooms into deep, desperate love. So close, in fact, that they have fallen in love. And the stress of their lives-and the way they understand each other so completely-has also brought them closer than two siblings would ordinarily be. As defacto parents to the little ones, Lochan and Maya have had to grow up fast. Together they have stepped in for their alcoholic, wayward mother to take care of their three younger siblings.

Seventeen-year-old Lochan and sixteen-year-old Maya have always felt more like friends than siblings. He is seventeen gorgeous and on the brink of a bright future. She is pretty and talented – sweet sixteen and never been kissed.
