My god this is a good book. It took me a while to get really into it, I tend to not binge read e-books on my phone, but once I did… it’s a beautiful love story, heartbreaking and incredible. I cried, I cringed, I giggled, and I thought long and hard about what it means to love someone. Truly love them. Wow. This book will stay with me for a long time.

I enjoyed this, I just wish it had focused more on the death/court case

and less on the infidelity
