This review is difficult.. So I will just put my thoughts out there and you can decide for yourself.

The story started out sweet. Ok, not that sweet - the main character was beat up and possibly raped. But there weren't many details, and the story seemed more focused on character development. There was a great friendship and a slowly building romance with a guy who was almost too good to be true..

THEN it started getting darker and more violent.
THEN there was this big ugly thing (I am trying not to say too much so I dont spoil it). And previously liked characters were just horrible.. and THEN the brother of the H - say what???

It was almost like it was two different books. I loved the first half and am not too sure about the second half. But I kept reading, so...

I want to thank the author, the publisher and #netgalley for an ARC which did not impact my review. Check it out for yourself, and then let me know what you think, You can friend me on Goodreads - I would love to discuss. I am still processing.
