This book had a more serious storyline than the first book in the series and some challenging content, all of which was very well-written and carefully addressed.
Jude's struggle with substance use is mostly well-done and accurately portrayed in how it impacts his life and his relationships. There is a section where he is hospitalized and receives pain medication intravenously and then goes through withdrawal again. I think that would be unlikely from short-term use as was described. His feelings about Suboxone are very realistic and so is his response when he finally starts taking it.
The love between Jude and Sophie is real and strong, no matter what has happened or how much time has past. They have some hurdles to overcome - like her horrible father!! - but they find a way to make their relationship work and uncover some important truths in the process.
Even though the content is serious at times, it was a highly enjoyable read. Strongly recommend!
