If you have any parental trauma or abandonment trauma I would be very careful before deciding to read the book. I loved the book but it was really hard as someone with PTSD to read. If I would’ve known I would go back and choose to not read it.

This story is crafted like a roller coaster of emotions and I white knuckled my way all the way to the HEA. Abby brought to life an entire cast of characters and dove deep into the FMC and MMC. She didn’t shy away from the gritty details of the work that goes into making us who we are and how to make ourselves better versions. I would advise reading content warnings before reading the story. That being said, I would still recommend the story and I promise no matter how dark it gets, there is a HEA.
