Loved this book

I honestly did not think I was going to like this book. The thought of abuse hits home with me. Not now but back when I was very young, like 16. It was my first time to ever date and he was very mean. Hit then rape. I was alone and had no one. This book was not about rape but it was about abuse. Mental and physical. I’ve read a review that says, why didn’t her friends tell her to leave and how stupid the book was because of his abuse and her stupid for taking it. Things like that are life. Not all life, but some. It happens and it’s good that it was written about. Adam didn’t just start right out being an abuser. Like others he did it slowly. Broke her down and made her fall deeply for him. Then he took advantage of her love and how much she cared about him. He was a very cruel man. She was human. Abuse happens and the abused have a hard time getting away. Sometimes because they have no one and sometimes out of fear. Also from both fear and having no one. Never judge someone who is being abused. It’s an awful thing to go through.

You will love some of these characters and truly hate some. You might even come to care for some that you don’t think you will. Things are not always as they seem. This book is one that after I truly got into it was written very well. Great characters, well some. Great storyline. I think Sandie Jones did a good job with this story and I’m glad I read it even though the end sure made me cry.

I gave this book 5 stars because I think it deserved it. It’s a story that you won’t be forgetting very quickly for sure. Great job!!

Thank you to NetGally and St Martin’s Press for this copy. My review is mine and not because I received this from them. I honestly liked this book.
