I liked this a lot ... just shy of that elusive 5* rating, but it would be one I would recommend. I was able to snag the text from KindleUnlimited, and found the audio on Hoopla. Did a mix of both, mostly audio. Good narration.

This was first person/present tense ... two timelines though, Now/Then (no dates given, but contemporary, with the "then" varying in time ... first one our MC is six years old). The THEN is still in present tense. This seems like it would have been a perfect use of both. It would have helped me keep the two timelines more distinct (especially as they got closer to the present/same characters, sometimes, even though it had been labeled at the start of the chapter, I'd forget if we were in the present or the past).  I'm a Table of Contents nerd ... the audio TOC had the Now/Then listed next to each chapter (which makes it easy to do a quick look - yes, then alternate consistently, with NOW being odd chapters, THEN being even. In the Kindle copy though, just a basic (not very helpful) TOC. Why not add the Now/Then to the TOC in the Kindle copy? WHY????

I liked the story and the characters ... it was a bit predictable, at least I was expecting pretty much every twist and reveal. In fact, it dragged on a little too long, I got a bit annoyed, just verify my suspicion already. Thank you!

Definitely some triggers for Domestic Violence ... happily something I have no personal experience with at all. There was some proFanity (x17), I'm not really remembering the sexual content (mentioned a bit, but nothing explicit/descriptive/smut). 

The Kindle copy had some bookclub questions - but they were the pretty obvious ones, not really anything that made me really think back, dig deeper.
