Books like The Help

Callie Rose puts one girl in a house full of boys who hate her. The Help hands her several tormentors at once, and the loathing slowly turns into something else. Very dark, fairly restrained in bed. Proof you can go dark without going graphic. A good bridge for readers who want the edge without all the explicit scenes.
