Absolutely loved this book and how emotionally powerful and grabbing it was, second book fell a bit flat for me but this one had me never wanting to put this book down! The ending was such a great way to finish off the story, just wish it would have carried over better in the second book.

10/10 love this book

i prefer the book!

Good book, some parts are tough to read.

Amazing absolutely stunning the book is much better then the movie of course

Title says it all

This book was amazing! So much better than the movie! I 10 out of 10 recommend! It’s so much more in depth and made me cry a couple times!

I don’t ever really read romance novels. This one took me a couple times to try and read it. But once I got far enough, I was hooked. I think this book did justice for all the DV survivors. Definitely relatable. Definitely brung out every emotion there is. From mad, to sad, then happy. I absolutely loved this book!

It truly shows how it affects not only the physical but what actually goes on inside of someone’s head. The trauma, the emotions, the excuses, the love, the pain. All of it. It shows other woman who haven’t been through it exactly how it feels. Lily said something in Chapter 32 the describes it best, “I tell myself that maybe it isn’t that bad. Maybe I could put up with him when he’s at his worst just so I can have him when he’s at his best.” I also loved how REALISTIC it was especially with characters like Ryle. Although what he did was HORRIBLE and inexcusable, he was still a PERSON you know? Not just a super villain in a cartoon. And I also loved how it showed how much strength and mental turmoil it truly takes to leave. It’s not always money, it the manipulation, it’s the love you still have, it’s the self doubt etc etc. It was just such a work of art truly.

I cried my eyes out on that second to last Chapter
