solid premise and plot but quickly fell into the traps of "falling in love and sharing your trauma heals all <3" and "woman needs a ~good man~ to save her after sexual assault and promiscuity". lots of the very explaining-y dialogue made some scenes feel rushed, especially the main couple going from "hate" to love felt like a switch being flipped. almost every character was either amazingly good or almost cartoonishly evil
Graphic: Death of parent, Pregnancy, and Sexual harassment
Moderate: Child abuse and Sexual assault
