Summary of the Book:
Rose is hiding—from her past, from her own mind, from the world she knows promises no happy endings as she works to make a better life for her newborn daughter. Josh is trying—to make ends meet, to protect his only family from the fears that haunt them both, to keep the darkness from winning while he makes his way through the hurdles life keeps coming.
When Rose and her daughter move into the building Josh and his best friends live in, it becomes clear they’re meant to be a part of each other’s lives—trauma knows trauma, and weary hearts and broken souls grow together. But beyond their newfound friendship, the universe has more in store for Rose and Josh, from falling in love and the baby’s first words to a horrifying court trial.
And when their pasts come back to haunt them, each other is all they have while they face their darkest fears.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. I was not ready for this book. It put you in the thick of things quickly and wraps around you not wanting to let you go. It had me in my feelings from the very beginning. Rose has been through a lot and she is doing the best she can to get away from from a difficult past and having a new baby does not make things any easier. When she moves she meets Josh who has a rough past as well. Josh and his friends become like family for Rose and Scarlett. I am looking forward to reading more from this author.
