Shattered & Scarred by A.J. Downey

Shattered & Scarred - A.J. Downey

I'm in a weird reading slump. I'm still reading books but those aren't the stories I picked out for March. These are random books I had no wish to read. But as long Anne Bishop's book hasn't arrived I can't see the situation changing. Shattered and Scarred was one of those stories I had no intention of reading. 
So, let's talk about it. 
Should I really believe that the man in the cover is thirty-six years old? Sorry, can't do this. 
The beginning of the story was interesting but after that it had so many ups and downs I started skipping pages until I got to the interesting part again. 
I actually liked the characters but at times I didn't understand them. After everything Ashton went through she was very quick to trust strange men. I thought she needed therapy but apparently sex with two men was all the cure she needed. And it made the romance between Ashton and Trigger so unbelievable. I liked how author showed both the gritty side and the emotional side of the characters but the singing part and all the musical stuff was too much for me. 
The story also had too many typos. I had to read sentences again and again because I couldn't understand them and realized then that the comma was missing or the word wasn't right.
