The story was too politically/liberally slanted regarding abortion , same sex marriage (inferring that two husbands are a better family unit than a traditional husband and wife), and that white men are evil (compared to black men). I read this to the end and was so disappointed/disheartened with the change in Susan Wigg’s tone. I have loved all of her books and have sung her praises until this one. I will probably never read another one of hers again. I gave this a 2 star rating because her writing is always good, but this was not a feel-good romance.

This book was very disturbing. The rape scene is very graphic. The description of this book is VERY misleading. It really is horrible.

The whole book is so predictable and tries so hard to check all the right boxes that makes for e huge waist of time

This book shows that life isn’t always fair and you have to stick up for yourself. Your “team/family (chosen or given)” are the rock of your foundation. Read it to help you remember the rock of your foundation.

Powerful. Eye opening.

I was expecting a romance with food and cooking, and was delighted by the diverse characters. The story is much deeper than that, and I really don’t consider violent rape and incarceration to be the light romantic read I expected based on the excerpt.
