This was a damn near perfect read for me. Alexis and Daniel's relationship was so satisfying even if you just wanted to scream at them that they are grown adults and can make their own decisions! No but seriously, absolutely wonderful character development and pacing here. Those last few chapters were gut wrenching. 

I loved the setting, and the small town feel and although I didn't enjoy all aspects around the topic of domestic abuse/emotional and physical abuse, I do feel that the author tried to do it with care. I am definitely interested in reading more of this author's work.
