Deep subject matters are at the core of this emotionally driven romance. I always like a good angsty read and with this one touching on spousal abuse in all forms, suicide and the effects that has on the ones left, and bulling in high school I certainly got my fill.

Two parents clash when meeting in the principal’s office over one daughter bulling the others daughter. As the story unfolds we find out there is so much more to the story. A widowed dad and a divorced mother both are carrying enough battle scars from their past for a life time. Even though neither wants to be attracted to the other it’s not long before they start a relationship but some of the ghost from their past refuse to leave them alone and bring more heartache to these two families before all is said and done.

In the end all 4 have to fight for the family and happiness they deserve and its so worth it.
