WHAT THE READERS HAVE TO SAY

"One of the realest books I've read in a while. Ms. Martinez presents her character, Angie, in such a raw, realistic way that fully immerses the reader into Angie's experience. She allows you to feel Angie's pain and sorrow, which will hit home for many women (and men, as we know they too can be on the receiving end of DV). Ms. Martinez puts DV front and center, and gives you an inside look at it in its different forms, as well as the challenges many face when trying to build the courage to leave these types of relationships. I hope more people take an opportunity to read this book and share with others, because DV is NOT ok, contrary to what many of us learned from our families growing up. Thank you, Ms. Martinez, for being a voice for DV survivors"

"Omg I absolutely love this book. It hits so close to home. Captivating from beginning to end. Monica Martínez is an amazing writer I can't wait to find out how the rest of Angie and Erik's life turns out."

"This book hits home and I applaud Ms. Martinez for touching on this subject"

"One of the best reads I've read in a long time. Ms. Martinez keeps the reader wanting more. I couldn't put this book down. Her ability to keep the reader attached is amazing. I had to finish this book in one day. I couldn't help myself. Looking forward to part II"
