Stolen by Lucy Christopher
2.0
You have to hand it to this book: it's realistic. Teenagers are often annoying and dumb[1], and that's exactly how I felt about this story and its characters.
So, hunk steals chick and brings her to the desert. Chick hates him until one night when she actually vaguely warms up to him, slightly. Chick gets bitten by snake and the snake venom makes her fall madly in love with her captor, I suppose, because she's suddenly needy and googly-eyed and adoring. Hunk takes her back and doesn't run when he could, so he gets dragged into police custody.
This book is a letter the chick writes to the captor. On her psychiatrist's laptop. Because that makes sense, somehow.
*groan*

Footnote: They're *often* annoying and dumb, not always.
