I enjoyed the book for a bit, intrigued by the FMC’s muteness. Then it got to be kind of ridiculous and then the end was just plain stupid. Almost 20 years of the FMC’s life was stolen and THAT’S how she reacts when confronted with her assailant?!? It was just so darn unbelievable. Ruined the entire ending for me. I liked Brooks but didn’t believe his character development at all. Maggie was fine, and I grew to like her more near the end when she finally stood up for herself. Disliked the mother character from start to finish. So much I didn’t like vs what I did!
