Description
When Kim’s adoptive parents are killed in a car crash, her whole world begins to unravel. Turning to her fiancé for support, she reveals that she is pregnant with their child. But he reacts angrily and explodes with rage, assaulting her violently and throwing her out of their shared flat.
Discovering his hidden past as an extreme right-winger known to police, Kim finds herself alone with nowhere to go. Turning to a former nursing colleague, she finds refuge for a while. But as a result of the assault, she miscarries her unborn child. As Kim tries to deal with the heartache from the loss of her child, her life takes another dramatic turn when a car accident leaves her paralysed.
With support from her former colleague, Kim learns to live and love again. Despite her trauma and losses, she finds happiness and positivity in her new life.

I struggled a little with this book, although the story was interesting and the themes felt relevant, the style of writing just wasn’t the type that I enjoy. I’m sure some people would really enjoy this it just wasn’t the best fit for me
I really liked the story. It was interesting and relevant to politics today given the rise in the extreme right in the UK.
For me the writing though was old fashioned, overly formal, and sometimes sexiest. It wasn't badly written, just not a style that suited me
Not a fan, but I suspect my Gran would quite like it.
Thanks to NetGalley for a free copy in exchange for an honest review
