I sat on this for 24 hours before writing the review. I don't have a lot of triggers, I can process things like a healthy adult, however this did bring up a lot of stuff. So to write a fair review I had to give my head some space. 

Growing up with Kya was a beautiful and sad journey all at the same time. She was so strong and overcame everything thrown at her but you couldn't help but think that she shouldn't have those things thrown at her to begin with.

Honestly the ending wrecked me. Because while I fully expected it, I didn't want to believe it.

I wanted to hold on to Kyas innocence.

This book will take you on an emotional roller coaster. If you can handle the content, I strongly recommend this read.

The first half was pretty slow going and I wasn’t as interested. But then the last half kept my attention and I started to connect to the MC. She was a strong FMC who survived on her own even though she was abandoned and isolated. 

I liked the scenes with her lawyer, Tom. And her small circle of family she developed by the end. The ending of the book was pretty good.
