The main character, Cambrea, tries to get her life together, although she’s haunted by memories of her painful past and the loss of the love of her life. The writing is vivid, almost like a diary, which creates a deep sense of intimacy with her.
Sometimes the story can drag out, the dialogue and details slightly overwhelming and long. However, the story is strong. Cambrea’s journey is one of grief, trauma, and ultimately, revenge.
Everette's actions made me frustrated since he caused her so much misery. About halfway through, the book’s pace picks up significantly, making the second half intense and gripping.
The author doesn't hold back. This story includes raw, unfiltered, and very adult themes. That honesty makes it feel bold and powerful.
