This is a triggering book but so painfully accurate and realistic. There were moments where I had to put the book down and just sigh out of exasperation because it was emotionally draining (you've been warned!).
This is a story about getting out. The author begins the book from the end but takes us through the process of how everything happens and we get to see Grace fall in love with Gavin and come to the painful realization that everything is not what it seems to be. There's a sort of tension when reading the book because we the readers know that this is not a love story but we're just waiting (painfully, I might add) for the shoe to drop.
The friendship between Nat, Lys and Grace is the best thing in this book. The support system is so beautiful, I absolutely loved it!
This is the first book I've read from Heather Demetrios, safe to say I'm a fan now.
