Abandoned by first her father and then her mother, as a girl Tessa is left to live with her abusive stepfather and stepbrother. She survives by finding reserves of strength in herself, and by the transformative love of another teenage girl, Mel, who sees through Tessa’s tough exterior to the loving woman inside. When she suddenly loses Mel, too, Tessa stumbles into a kind of refuge with Henry and his mama, becoming a mother and finding herself in a familial existence that somehow carries her into adulthood—until the day she runs into Mel, who has just returned to Perris after years away.

Great story - Terrible Narrator
Revisado: 06-18-24
I enjoyed the story behind this book but it was almost ruined by a grating narrator. I don't mind a raspy voice sometimes, but after a few hours of listening to it, it becomes unpleasant. This was especially true of the children's voices. They were so irritating and whiny I found it hard to like the kids. And they seemed like nice kids.
Aside from that, it was a sensitive treatment of a woman's difficult life and complicated emotional relationships.
