I can honestly say I haven’t read a book quite like this one. I was unsure at first how it would all end up coming together, but hot damn did it. Not only is Water’s story inspiring, I really loved that this was dual POV (first person 🙌🏻). K.A Tucker did an amazing job of highlighting the emotions and struggles of watching someone you love go through abuse and trauma. I won’t give anything away but I will say that Jesse is a 10/10.
Can’t wait for to read the next book in this series!

I loved Jesse. He was by no means perfect, but I was really impressed with him.
I was so broken hearted for Alex. She was dealt a really rough hand in life. I really thought her resilience came through the pages of the book perfectly.
This plot grabs you and never lets go. It was quite interesting to see how everything unfolded. Some parts I figured out and some parts really surprised me.
I'll definitely be finishing this series!

This is unlike any of her other books in the best possible way.
One of my favourite Jane Doe stories.
This book becomes more than just surviving Domestic Violence. It becomes about friendship, found family and finding yourself. Those ties are proven to be the source of strength you can rely on when you’re at your lowest.
