TW: Talk of Sexual assault… happens off page.
Elise Faber never shies away from hard topics. Melody is a woman who doesn’t have a ton of self-confidence and is okay just sitting on the sidelines. Being a part of the group but observing more than anything. She has been attracted to Asher since her sister started dating his brother. When Mel takes a step outside of her comfort zone and asks Asher out, he rejects her. This rejection is a catalyst for her assault.
What follows is a story of healing and find herself again. Finding the new normal of her life. Asher is there for every step of the way, but he has so much guilt over it as well. This story is heartbreaking but healing. There is clarity not fear in this sometimes tough topic. Elise Faber treats this storyline with care, and it is one that you just need to read to get the full feel of how it transpires.
