Summary

Shallow Hill is where souls suffer slow and miserable deaths.

When River McAllister escaped from Shallow Hill, she left her innocence behind—and some of her sanity. Now, she's rebuilding her life with her dream man, and life couldn't be better.

Ryan Fitzgerald is everything you'd want in a man. Attractive, rich, an aspiring lawyer, and would do anything to keep River. But that's not the only thing that attracts her. It's his attentiveness and possessiveness, but maybe not so much his temper.

When her relationship takes a dark turn, Ryan's estranged brother, Mako, is the only one who sees it. He knows exactly what Ryan is capable of, and it's not the first time he had to be a knight in shining armor.

River came from Shallow Hill, though. She's never needed saving before. What Mako doesn't see is that River is perfectly capable of taking care of herself.

The only one who should be scared is Ryan....

I will try to keep it spoiler free, but some of my description might hide a couple of spoilers, so please read with with a warning.

This book depicts exactly the mindset of a victim of abuse. The author has done a great job at describing the feelings of a victim, the results of the manipulation of an abusive partner, the way they twist and make the victim feel guilty about the situation they are in and on top of that, deserving of their misery.

I love how this book made me feel. I felt angry at the victim not being able to leave the situation she was in, sad at the characters' backstories, admiration for all the survivors out there in the real world, and grateful for the redemption in the very end.

Once again, I love the author's writing style and the performance of the narrators at the audiobook. I recommend this book 100% to people who like to read about hardcore things like that, but please pay attention to the trigger warnings before you do.
