Thanks to Netgalley for the preview of this book. It was a gripping & fast moving book. I was genuinely surprised at the the end of the book as it is a twist you don't see coming!

A sincere thank you to the publisher, author and Netgalley for providing me with an ebook copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This is not my usual genre, I’m more into romance stories and girlie books therefore am extremely pleased and grateful to them for opening up my mind to something totally different.

I enjoyed this very much. 4 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟

This book that had me glued to the page is about trust. And you can definitely trust Kate Simants that you are in for a rollercoaster ride with A Ruined Girl. Because it doesn't take long to figure out who the characters from the first chapter are, but even when you are almost certain to know who's the bad guy in this book... what happens in the last chapters will take your breath away. Seeing how all the little details you took for granted add up to an unexpected twist that might keep you wondering for days. It did in my case.

Mixed feelings about this book. I found the story interesting, albeit predictable. I think it is a realistic portrayal of growing up in the care system. However, I found the main character Wren very annoying and completely unprofessional in the way she spoke to Rob. I don't want to say much more to avoid spoiling the story but this aspect made me feel frustrated which made it harder to enjoy the book.

This book had me hooked, definitely recommend!! The twists!!!
Paige and luke are in care. Luke loves paige. Likes brother Rob has a plan to get luke out of care and their mum out of hospital. However something happens, robs arrested and paige disappears.
Wren is robs probation officer on a new scheme where Rob gets out early. But wren is fixated on what happened to paige.
Great book.
Thank you netgalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

A good storyline though somewhat predictable. So much more could have been added to this book. I just hope that this continues in a second book as it felt there were so many unanswered questions.

* 3.5 stars

A really decent Read,that has you wondering about every body's motives,actions or inactions in the case of the missing Paige.
It does get to the point where I was almost yelling at Wren who still couldn't spot who the main villain was.
An ending I fully expected,but with some good twists along the way that kept me hooked

Very good book very tense.. at times you dont know who was to blame for Paiges past. Just when you think you know what is going to happen there is a twist
