Thoughts
Hope never thought she would be able to do normal things. After being captured and trafficked by King, a man that she thought she loved, for 10 years, the last thing that she wants to do is let someone in. God is a major part of this book, she battles with letting God in after she feels He has forsaken her and allowed all of the bad things that she has endured to happen to her.
As the book progresses you dive deeper into Hope’s feelings, understanding why she feels the way she does and how hard it really is for her to go through a “normal” life. This story is very heartwarming and intriguing with a twist towards the end that you will never see coming. I loved it!
