"Angel frowned, her head cocked at me. "Thirteen-year-olds should not be as independent as you claim to be."

Ya think? That's a really good summary as this book, actually in a way. 😆

Oof. 💙

"I knew that. "There's a difference between knowing and knowing, you know?"

Very out of context quote but waay too many variations of "know" in that sentence. 😆😜

"Alex, you don't just run out of the office, sprint up the street, then have a breakdown in the middle of an alley when you're fine. I think you need some rest."

🤣 It's not funny...I know it's not funny... 😆

"I nodded, laughing at her sudden outburst.
"Rose," Angel said after a moment of reverent silence. "God made all this."
My heart suddenly ached with a hunger so strong I felt sick."

This scene... ❤️So beautiful and raw yet just normal and gentle...and ugh, my heart.

Oofda. Forgot how much this one hurts.

<3

I can't wait to share the highlights of this book!! <3

I knew I was going to love it! I wish I had read it sooner!

😍

Yes! Finally Alex is talking it out. No more secrets.

Oh my wow. This book is an absolute roller coaster. The flashback scene with Rose and her mom was so tear jerking.

Jenni and Alex’s relationship is so sweet. I hope Alex though opens up to his wife more as secrets are never good in a relationship. Though I understand why he’s doing it. Rose and Angel are so adorable. Angel is a good friend to her. Also love her name

Love the chapter titles.

The warehouse scene. Broke my heart. This book is so good. One moment I’m smiling the next my heart is broken.

Poor Baby Rose. I’m horrified at how her parents treated her. Alex and Jenni seem like a sweet young couple.

Oh my! It’s so sweet at the moment. Poor Rose though she’s been through a lot.

Seems like a really good book . . . Just not my style, I suppose. I would recommend it to a lot of people, though! I just don't think I'll be finishing it this time.
