Don't touch me, I'm so vulnerable right now. Have you ever tried to hold back tears at work???? I should have known better than to read this during lunch, but it is so good I couldn't stop myself. Good, but so so painful. Like, this is one of the best books I've read in a while, I'm so emotional, but I will never reread it. My heart can't take this ending again. Or maybe.. well, I'll write myself a note about where to stop reading if I do want to read this origin story again.

tw: child abuse, homelessness, domestic abuse, pet death/cruelty
another heads up in case you haven't caught this from the author: This is not a romance, this is a prequel – the beginning of Scarlet & Billy's romance... and their story is the last of the brothers. This is sad, it is heart-wrenching, and knowing how things will be in the future puts a sad tint to this book.
