This one just wasn't for me. As I'd stop with the book, I didn't want to come back to it, and had to push to finish. It's not an issue of content, while domestic violence isn't a "fun" read, it's also not a trigger or anything (no personal connection to it at all).  The whole thing just felt a little awkward ... 1st person, present tense, I was always aware of the tense. It felt unnatural. None of the characters were that likeable or sympathetic ... which is real, it's all shades of gray. I mean, Gordon is BAD ... but he does have a few sweet moments. Jill, our MC ... in a horrible situation, but it is hard to go with her choices. Drew ... little boy, yet still some cringe-worthy stuff.  Quite a bit of violence, sexual situations/rape and proFanity (well, just 7x). Just a little over the top, not quite believable. I just wasn't able to get pulled in, I felt like I was questioning too much along the way. Too many "really???" moments throughout. 

Never really felt like the title connected.

I adored this author's "In An Instant" and liked "Where Butterflies Wander" ... but this one didn't work for me. Included in KU, text and audio.
