My one and only warning is that if you are a rape victim that can not handle reading about it, then this book is not for you. However, I have been able to move forward and reading The Scars of Us was such an emotional roller coaster but so phenomenal. Nikki Narvaez did an amazing job with this one. You can't help but feel for the characters they've all suffered heart ache of some kind that some can relate to in one way or another. Kaiya has trouble with trusting anyone and intimacy is an even bigger issue for her. Ryker isn't much different except for the fact that he's not running and hiding from it altogether, he just hides it well. I loved reading The Scars of Us because for one it shows that even though a lot of us have baggage and issues doesn't mean we can't move forward and still live our lives, we may not always get over it but we learn to manage what has happened in our pasts and we don't define ourselves to it.
