My Review:
I have read this author's Emma books before, and I knew that I was in for love and drama. The author has a way of putting real life into words, and she connects with her readers. Everyone either knows somebody that has postpartum, or they have talked and heard about it. I was really angry with Brian for being gone so long. However as the book progressed and things got clearer, I definitely understood him better. I also want to mention that there are times in this book that are very sad. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
