I love this. Especially the love story. It made me actually think she would miraculously be okay at the end. The mystery itself felt more organic and real than most I’ve read so far. It was beautiful. 

The one part I hated was the custody arrangements and how possessive she was over her grandchild. I get helping out while he is in school but for her to say if Derek gets an apartment after he graduates he can get her on the weekends. No ma’am. He is that baby’s father and he stepped up, he should have custody.

Also the way Abi described how the baby got her name makes me wonder if Derek actually had any say in the matter
