Gareth and Macy met when he came home from work and found a strange woman sleeping in his bed. Macy had been through a horrific experience and was trying to find somewhere to escape and be safe. Gareth is about 45 and Macy is barely 20. Gareth feels very protective over her. He tries to do just about anything he can to keep her safe although he’s not exactly sure what happened because Macy refuses to discuss it. These two people have a lot of terrible issues most of it internal and they really need therapy to work through them but unfortunately they just seem to avoid and supress their feelings and emotions. Most of the book I found myself shouting at them to just talk it out and discuss it. This book kept me engaged and I was truly invested in what exactly happened to both of them since the author only gives us glimpses until the end. Great story.
