While reading this book I became a bit confused with the time frame as it switches from 2003 to 2008 with the same character but she is different and has changed her name so it reads as 2 POVs but it's only one! This book is very graphic and has trigger warnings for sexual abuse, domestic abuse, stalking, cutting, self harm, rape! If you are triggered then I suggest not reading this one! The characters are very flushed out. While reading you see how things can change very drastically. The main character Cathy suffers from OCD in 2008 and you learn that it was caused by her past. In 2003 you meet a man named Lee. He starts out great but his personality goes slowly dark and twisted! The author had me scared of Lee and hating him by the end of the book. It's so sad that this could actually happen and woman can't escape the pain and torture of these men! I will be checking out more of this authors books.
