I had mixed feelings about this book. The first half was tough to get through due to the relentless graphic descriptions of domestic abuse situations and a suicide attempt. Despite my initial frustration, I persisted and was surprised with a suspenseful and tense storyline.

The book takes a dramatic turn around the halfway mark, and the pieces start to fall into place. The ending was unexpected and had my heart racing.

*****TRIGGER WARNING: This book contains graphic descriptions of domestic abuse and a suicide attempt. If you're sensitive to these topics, please exercise caution.*****

If you're willing to push through the difficult beginning, you'll find a gripping and unpredictable story. However, please prioritize your emotional well-being if these topics may trigger you.

This book had me going right from the very start! 

I wasn't sure what to expect, as I went into this book not knowing ANYTHING about the plot, but omg, the start of this book seriously had me wanting to know what was going on and what was going to happen. I couldn't stop listening to it and seriously just wanted to know how everything was gonna come together. 

The reveal was so good!!! I definitely did not predict it, even with all my guesses, and found it to be SUCH a well-done storyline. I've been recommending it to so many customers and hoping they'll enjoy it as much as I did!

I honestly cannot wait to read more thrillers because of this!

This book was okay to me. Good not great in comparison to some of the author’s other works (loved those). This started off a bit slow for my liking and the 1st plot twist came when I was almost 75% of the way in and I almost missed it. And also there was a lot of unnecessary background for a portion of the book that had me curious to where it was going. The epilogue was definitely needed but seemed a little cliché. I think I’d recommend to others who are familiar with her other books in order to discuss their thoughts.
