[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "The End of May" by Kem Richards.]

The End of May by Kem Richards is a compassionate fiction story that describes a lifestyle of abusive relationships, drugs, and prostitution. Marcella Burke moved from Ohio to New York City to start her life; she was to stay with her boyfriend, Luke. A few days after arriving in New York, her best friend, Jessica, visited her. Marcy and Jess went to 230 Fifth, where Marcy met David. They both shared chemistry, and affection began to flow as they chatted. David networked with Marcy to secure a job at Vogue with Mrs. Price. This was the beginning of Marcy's escapades in New York City. Find out in this book what these escapades were and how she fared.

I like the plot development and writing pace. The turn between Marcy and Luke was expected, but I didn't see Rafael Leon coming into the picture either. Maybe because he shared so many traits with her father, but sad enough, she lost her father. Marcella's courage after being denied the job at Vogue was intriguing. She was resolute in proving her worth to Mrs. Price. Courage is the virtue that gave her a second chance. The author is well-detailed in his explanations and provides adequate information to support every incident. I like the author's approach to selecting titles for each chapter; the titles reflect what to expect from the chapter. The story's conclusion is well organized and shows a great deal of rehabilitation.

Although I wouldn't say I liked the event that played out between Marcy and Luke when Abby accompanied her to Luke’s apartment, it is not enough to strike out the story's uniqueness. 

The book was professionally edited and is such an exciting read and I rate it five out of five stars. Marcy made a lot of mistakes, and those choices affected her life and career. Her story is a good read for both young and adult readers. I recommend the book to fiction romance lovers and anyone interested in reading an exciting narrative.
