Hmm this was a bingeable read but it really didn’t sit well with me. Holders character exhibited so many red flags from the beginning and continually crept up as the story unfolded. Sky, having the reputation as a “slut” had to proclaim herself as not a slut. Over and over and over. It felt as though that derogatory word was used way too often - to the point where I was feeling slightly uncomfortable. The twist was great, yes, but DEF check out the trigger warnings!!! I was blindsided and wow it was dark. Still after all the dark traumatic events, Holder and Sky attempt to have sex? That seems like horrible timing and just insensitive. Also, Holder casually guns down Sky’s biological father and it’s written off as a suicide? I thought there were a lot of overshot details in this book, some insensitivity surrounding the material and trauma, and a whirlwind of a toxic romance.

Amazing!!!!!!
Loved this book, this book kept me going 
It’s got a emotional back story on it, however for me, I have cried to Colleen hoover books more than this one for some reason 
The topics was very emotional and I don’t know why I only shedded a year, but nether the less it was a amazing book, amazing story, so sad and you won’t put it down until u have finished reading 
I loved the ending of this
And I love dean holder… 
I also love sky
I hate the dad( for very obvious reasoning) 
And, I can’t lie, I do love Karen , even if she did

kidnap sky, it was to protect her from her father.
Although In the middle, we kind of forgot about our best friends  in the book
