It wasn't long after that Bri was faced with deciding if her love for Wes Nine carried more importance than her love for herself.

First read by this Author and I am blown away. This book is a very realistic view of domestic violence. Sabrielle "Bri" Russell goes off to college with her best friend Char ready to go take on new adventures and make new memories. Char, having started to experience life back in High School, was a little more advanced than Bri. Bri was smart and ambitious, but because her Mother had been in prison for the majority of her life part of her soul was wounded and broken. Wes Nine, a popular spoken word artist on campus, find Bri early on....being that he was also broken he recognized that in her and preyed on it. Bri lost her virginity to Wes...and later on down the line her self worth as well. This is a great read especially for high school students or college freshmen. Love isn't support to hurt.

Powerful read
I'm at a lost for words with this one. I hoped that Bri ending was different. I never expected Char to become a victim. There are so many what ifs. What if she would have never got involved with him. Why didn't she report him? Why didn't she heed the sisters warning? I believe she thought she was in love with him. That was not the case though. Wesley friend Tony played a small part in what happened that day. I think he was salty because Char never gave him any play When the truth was revealed about the abuse he should have never continued talking. He (Wesley) was not stable and his family knew that. She ignored the signs and didn't heed the warnings. It cost her and her Best friend their lives in the end.

Love doesn't hurt
She shoulda let him go when she meet him. He started showing signs early. Watching her mother go through this - Bri already knew the signs. It's sad that he ruined the lives of three family. Love doesn't hurt no matter what anybody says

Too many women are just like Bri. They take the abuse because they think it's a sign of Love. It is not. It's a shame she didn't walk away from Wes when it first happened. She was warned but she didn't listen. Now it's too late.

OMG! This book was on Domestic Violence something that is too hushed about. It not only happens to adults but to teenagers and college students as well. This is based on a true issue that happened at a college. Listen to your friends male and female and when they start dating and acting REAL different there is a problem. Address them about it even if they don't want to hear it. I have read other books from this author which is urban romance. She is very good at her craft. Check her out. Remember Domestic Violence is serious and it happens more so than not to a lot of women and men and young adults. Keep the communication open between family and friends don't let someone you love become another statistic if possible.

Domestic violence is a serious issue. I enjoyed reading this book. I went through several emotions while reading this book; laughing, crying, and mad. Sabrielle and her best friend Char goes off to college. Bri mom was in jail for the murder of her boyfriend. Bri was a very smart young lady and just wanted her mom to be out of prison. Wes Nine, a word artist on campus, finds Bri and claims his love. Wes had some serious issues. Bri wanted to leave after the abuse started but made excuses for him. Domestic violence is real and sometime it’s hard for the person to leave the relationship. Love does not hurt. Awesome book!!!

Excellent Read !
Very interesting take on domestic violence, having a daughter that went through something similar I immediately knew who the Wes Nine character was from the start. Bri brought tears to my eyes several times going through as much as she did. It was like I was there along side her during this terrible journey. This book is a great gift for any young girl going off to college it will give them an insight in what to look for regarding domestic violence while being a really good read.

Conflicted, amazed, hurt, in awe...
As a survivor of domestic violence, this story hurt me to my core. I could feel every hit, every punch, every kick. The ending was just too much for me, I've been that close to death myself but I survived. It's really awful this happened to such young lives with so much potential. As far as the author, she's a great writer. An awesome writer. I bow to your greatest dear.

Wow
The ending left me speechless. Young women who enter college are supposed to have the time of their lives. Having a relationship can be complicated enough without the added burden of a jealous abusing manipulating womanizer. I just think Bro was too naive to think she could change a broken man. So sad it ended like it did

This is book made me feel as if I knew the characters! It's an all too real occurrence for some people! I loved some of the relationships, hated others, and made me sad at others. If you have never known anyone in this situation or been in it yourself, it will change your perspective on domestic violence.
