This was beautifully written and such a powerful story about women. There is so much pressure in being a woman in so many ways and this really touched on a lot of that especially in showing the story of women from a different culture. A lot of heavy topics in this one - pregnancy, abuse, loss. Definitely would recommend.

After running from her husband & his arrest, Lindsay‘s terrified when he reappears in their lives.
