I was given this book by edelweiss+ on behalf of the publisher.
Review contains spoilers.
The main character is Angelina, who is forced tomlive with her parents after a car accident. She is a struggling artist, and this highlighted throughout. It also focuses on her father, Jack, who has tasked himself with getting her a settlement from her accident.
You soon realize that Angelina does not get along with her parents. Though the reason is alluded to throughout the book, it's not evident until the very end. While her father seems overbearing in the beginning, you realize it's because he's abusive. He has been since she was a child and he coa child. So I definitely issue a warning to those who may find that kind of material sensitive.
Overall, I enjoyed the book. Do I think there could have been more? Definitely. It states that the story deals with her father obsessively trying to get the settlement, but it's only mentioned as an afterthought up until the end. Other than Angelina, I found the characters to be a bit lacking. However, I still felt it was a good read, and I suggest sticking it out until the end. That's when I really didn't want to put the book down. I think this author has talent and I can't wait to see what else she will come out with in the future.
Thank you for reading.
