I don’t know why it took me so long to pick this book back up. I put my big girl pants on and stuck to it. This book had me so angry.

I hate to say it but River pissed me off at times. She took so much mental, physical, and sexual abuse from men for YEARS, from a very young age but being CHEATED ON is where she drew the line and finally decided to do something about her situation… I was baffled.
Mako was PERFECT! That’s it.

I loved Amelia! She was such a great friend to River, she was refreshing.
Alison… Ryan’s (River’s current boyfriend and abuser) ex-victim… I’m very glad she did not decide to stay quiet and decided to warn River, however, I was very confused by that one sex scene with her… One minute River is confessing she killed Ryan and the next they’re stripping each other down. Hot but so totally confusing lol.
I HATED RYAN, I think he got exactly what he deserved and I refused to feel bad for what happened to him as a kid. Did he deserve it? No. But that did not give him the right to do the things he did to his girlfriends.
Barbie (River’s mother) & Billy (River’s long-time abuser) both deserve to rot in hell. The things they put that girl through are shocking. And yes I say “they” because Barbie just watched as those men beat and raped her daughter. Disgusting excuse of a woman and mother.
“Do what you need to do, but I’m not leaving you alone.”
Amar was cool, based on the little he did have on-page. A cop turning a blind eye to let a victim deal with her abuser is always a cool dude in my book.
That plot twist was… certainly unexpected and made things grosser than they already were.
I could not have chosen a better ending for Mako and River. I’m giving this five stars because although it did have me pissed off for more than half of it, I enjoyed seeing River handle her business (better late than never) and again Mako is PERFECT, so there’s that. It was a great read, you know once I put my big girl pants on and restarted it. There’s a lot of rape (I’m going to say the FMC was raped every time her POV came around), not explicitly detailed but it’s there so keep that in mind.
