Initially from the first few pages of this book, I expected this story to follow in the many footsteps of great authors and I was not disappointed.
The writing grabs you into the quite relatable emotions and thoughts of the protagonist's life; the consequence of choices and the volatility some of us may have faced when dealing with the situations the story follows.
The themes covered are relatable but not too farfetched in that you can't help but have an appreciation and empathy for the situations covered like that of growing up, early relationships, moving homes, dealing with loss and heartbreak.
One can see how this book has already gained notoriety in the small number of fans the author has gained with its compelling plot and suspense wanting readers asking for a second book to follow up such a magnificent read.
Personally, I would recommend this book to anyone interested in Romance, relationships and fiction in general, as it would be a great addition to any bookshelf or reading list alike.
