The Fear by C.L. Taylor
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Lou Smith is used to
being headline news as, aged seventeen, she ran away with her
37-year-old teacher, Mike, during a short-lived affair.
Now 32,
Lou’s life is in tatters – and she resolves to return home to confront
Mike for the damage he has caused. But she soon finds that Mike is
unchanged, and is now grooming a young 15-year-old girl called Chloe.
Determined
to make sure that history doesn’t repeat itself, Lou decides to take
matters into her own hands. But Mike is a predator of the worst kind,
and as she tries to bring him to justice, it’s clear that Lou could once
again become his prey…
Difficult subject matter (child grooming) and told from various POVs. Took a little while to get me hooked but then I couldn't wait to see how it was going to pan out.

This one sounds interesting. I read one that had a hard subject matter, Roanoke Girls, I am glad I did finish it. It was about family abuse and eye opening to me how one can be pushed into doing something.
