If you value your mental health I suggest you avoid going into this book blind. I cannot stress this enough, check the trigger warnings before you jump into this (triggers will be down below).
This book messed me up from the very beginning. I did this to myself by going in blind . I might've gotten triggered(?) Iโm not sure, I have never been triggered before. After getting all the emotions under control I went back and checked the tw to prepare myself for what was ahead (I was still caught off guard). It was just a rollercoaster of emotions throughout the entire read. Alex and Gloria Harper have a special place in my heart though, they were so supportive and they were the first people to actually care for that girlโs well-being. In my opinion, Kevin, Lloyd and Lynn didnโt suffer enough for what they put that poor girl through. I LOATHED THEM WITH EVERYTHING IN ME.
As the story went on to the MCs life after college we got to meet some great side characters, Troy and Gavin were probably my favorites. She truly found the family she never had with everyone she met during and after her college days (except for Jon, we donโt like him in this household). This was a good yet traumatic read and I enjoyed it โ the parts that I could enjoy anyway โ I however am not totally sure if I would want to trigger anyone by recommending this unless specifically asked for something similar to this.

This is an Advanced Reader copy. Although this book was given to me as an ARC my thoughts are my own.
