There's alcohol use in this and some fade to black sex scenes. The protagonist is a woman in her mid 20's, so I think it would be more appropriate for 15+? Or at least more relatable for that age category. It also depends on your state, there are some queer characters in this books so your school might prohibit that content all together.

The main characters are in their late twenties. There are some fade to black sex scenes, frequent mention of alcohol consumption, and mentions of possession. A mature child could probably read this book and be fine, especially if read with a parent, but it is solidly a new adult/adult book in terms of classification. (less)
