God I wished I liked this book more than I did. I loved the way they tackled domestic abuse and the fear most men have about speaking out, but in general this book didn’t do it for me. It felt a little dragged on. But do NOT underestimate how beautifully this book discusses emotional abuse. I love that the Authors used realistic approaches and really made you feel for the character. Most people think abuse is only abuse if it is physical or sexual, and this book proves that wrong. They could never make me hate you Eden Finely and Saxon James 🫶🫶

I always enjoy Saxon and Eden’s books and this one was no exception! I wasn’t particularly invested in the storyline since it so heavily focused on the MMC’s prior relationship, but I loved both of the main characters and their growth! I will read and love anything they write!!!
