But people don’t always turn out to be what you decide they are when you’re younger. Even your closest friends. Loyalties can shift. Yours did.”

Billie took Cassie’s baby. That’s the highlight of this book, that’s the opening scene but we don’t know why or how until later in the story. Though that was very relevant, it wasn’t the real main focus of this story.
.
This story, for me at least, was mostly about Cassie and Billie’s friendship. We get multiple POV’s, a current timeline and one that covers their childhood. Interesting enough, we get to see what situations and circumstances made each of them who they are.
.
Honestly, I couldn’t really choose either of them to be a favorite here. I could say that their past and what happened back them allowed them to form a bond - however toxic, that kept them in a loop of not wanting to let go. Codependent in a sense, but not exactly relevant in their current lives - it was mostly by choice and out of obligation.

This one I couldn’t put down. I was shocked, mad and then I was like “what now”. Definitely a page turner. And the ending really gives a new meaning to “Bye, Baby”.
