Is it the greatest writing? No, it isn’t. However, the characters are well rounded and the storyline is propulsive. Frankly, I think I’ll read the sequel too.

This whole book is ultimately about domestic violence and why one wouldn’t give up on the other person immediately. Keep that in mind.

Rape and abuse was the theme of this book. Well written but very hard to read if you have known similar circumstances.

It was very interesting and a great quick read. I read it in one sitting in about 3.5 to 4 hours. Enjoyable!

Vowed to read 1 CoHo book in ifs entirety to affirm the suspicion that it wasn't for me. Worst thing I've ever read. Predictable and problematic with an air of trying desperately to "educate" readers. Also the mc is a florist who is called lily bloom.... eye roll. Mentioning the ridiculousness of that name in the book doesn't make it less ridiculous that its in the book. Nah. Nope. Not for me. Do not get the hype at all.

The biggest content warning in this book belongs to the content it self. Just awful.
