I have found a brand-new author!!! Honestly one of the best stories that I have read this year. It is a story that takes its time to demonstrate itself, but once you get going, (at around 15% of the story) it will not let you go. This is a heavy book that does talk about heavy topics such as domestic abuse, so if you are sensitive, I would definitely read another book. This author doesn't hold back any punches when the characters are going through it, so warning y'all now before your mental health takes a dive.
