❤️ BOOK REVIEW ❤️
Rated 4 ⭐️
📖 Release Date February 9th, 2024
A black, hardworking, single Dad goes to pick up his daughter after school to discover her not there. The police don't take him seriously and send him home to wait for her pre-teen attitude to set her straight and send her home. A few days later, Jenny still has not returned home, Ron is watching the news, and sees a white, rich couple beg the public to search for their kidnapped daughter. Ron crashes the public plea, asking for help to also find his daughter. This begins the unlikely duo of fathers who band together to search for their daughters.
I actually really enjoyed this book. I liked that it showed how today's society looks at wealth and skin color as priority and importance. The main storyline of kidnapping is every parents worst nightmare, and I appreciated how the author showed the parents pain and reaction to situations. I also loved that it showed a father's love for his daughter and how that love can be shown in different ways.
There are definitely some trigger warnings ⚠️ throughout this book... kidnapping, child sexual abuse, death, murder, and captivity. I found that this book didn't go into gory or too much detail.
Thank you to Netgalley, Jeff Stetson, and the publishers for this free ebook. This review is 100% my own and honest opinion.
