4.5

I’d give it a 4.5/5. It was a really good story, and I loved how the story just focused on Kya and her loneliness and abandonment and her survival in life. I found the beginning kinda slow, it just seemed like a lot of scene setting and not enough events.

I honestly didn’t think Kya killed Chase, I thought it was either Tate or Chase’s actual wife. I like that her love of nature and the marsh stayed with her and hence how she got away with murder. I also enjoyed that Jodie came back into her life, that way she had one family member who cared about her.

Overall good read!

Amazing read, my heart was breaking for Kya through most of this read and I couldn’t stop the tears. Compelling and beautifully written I adore this book. 5 STARS!!
