Maggie has not talked for two years, ever since she saw her father
murder her mother. Now, Maggie has moved
in with her aunt and uncle and her cousin Brady. Brady is protective of Maggie and has warned
all of his friends away from her, but
Brady’s best friend West is going through his own hardships and needs someone
who will just listen to him. West and
Maggie gravitate towards each other and start to build a friendship because of
their shared pain.
This story line was
compelling and I felt empathy for the characters. I liked the friendships throughout. That said, this book is full of adult content
and feels like it belongs in the New Adult genre except for the characters are
in high school.
