Disclaimer: I was given an ARC of this book from Mira and
Harlequin Trade Publishing in exchange for an honest review.
This book does have some heavy conversations about abusive relationships and rape.
This book did take me a while to get through because I had to take a break from it after reading the first third due to the heaviness of the beginning. Once I picked it back up, I was able to finish it in an afternoon.
April is an advisor for a sex and relationship charity and was raped by an ex-boyfriend which has caused her to believe that she hates men. However, she hasn't completely sworn off men so she creates Gretel as an alter-ego so she can date without the emotional baggage that April has. Once she meets Joshua and begins to really fall for him, things get complicated.
I would recommend this book but if you find conversations about abusive relationships and rape triggering, you may want to skip this book.
