Becoming an adult is never easy, but for Maggie the physical and mental abuse she suffers from her mother is horrific. Yet she handles it with strength and courage, always looking toward the day that she can leave. She works hard at school, supporting her mother completely. Meeting Vincent tests her inner resolve. I was proud that she stayed determined to be friends. Other young women might have jumped at the chance to be with Vincent, to escape the abuse by turning to sex: but not Maggie. She keeps their attraction on the back burner for as long as possible, and is rewarded to discover that she and Vincent share the sweetest kind of love. They love from their hearts.This was a realistic and touching story that makes you reconsider your outlook on life. The book is written in first person, so we see everything from Maggie's perspective. (And a few chapters from Vincent.) Magnolia Wilson is heroic inside. Her thoughts and feelings are mature beyond her age, yet remain typical of someone who had lost so much.I look forward to the next book!! Maggie and Vincent deserve a happily ever after.
