Minor: Death of parent

This was a fast read, filled with the horror of being trapped in a marriage by an abusive husband. There are alot of triggers, so this book is not for every one. Mrs. Constantine did an excellent job with character development and bringing the storyline all together for a great climax! I will be moving forward with reading Book 2.
