Played

Played by Liz Fichera is the second book in the Hooked series.  This book follows almost perfect rich girl Riley who finds herself lost in the woods with Sam Tracy, a boy who lives on the Rez.  After they are picked up Riley decides that she's going to thank Sam by setting him up with the girl he's in love with who happens to be her brother's girlfriend and Riley slowly finds herself spiraling into disaster.

This is a nice romance and I liked the romance aspects of the book.  I found myself irritated at Riley's increasing spiral of bad decisions that seemed bratty and stupid and selfish and while I was interested in the first two thirds of the book the last section (even more the last chapters) I cared less and less about the characters, finding their behavior irritating.  I didn't read the first book in the series and did not feel like I missed a thing.

Appropriateness:  There's quite a bit of adult content in this book.  Drinking and skipping school and acting out sexually (although there's no detailed sexual scenes).  I would recommend this book to readers 14+
