I'm torn on rating this book, I enjoyed that it delved into deeper topics, but I also found it a bit predictable at times. I'd say I predicted at least half the twists.
I enjoyed the happy ending, but I felt it wrapped up too quickly for how drawn out other elements were.

I really liked this one and felt like every time I had the plot figured out, there was more to the story. I was a definitely uncomfortable with the nature of the abusive marriage, and normally would never pick up a story with BDSM and a total power exchange in it, but none of it was explicit or descriptive. I liked seeing the way each of the main characters developed, and liked the dual point of view. There were a couple of times when Lee came off as naive. It was also interesting to explore the topic of homelessness and privilege through this lens.
Overall, I'd recommend this one to readers who are okay with some gruesome scenes, enjoy some twists and turns, and like to puzzle out plots.
