Goodreads Description

For some people, silence is a weapon. For Mallory “Mouse” Dodge, it’s a shield. Growing up, she learned that the best way to survive was to say nothing. And even though it’s been four years since her nightmare ended, she’s beginning to worry that the fear that holds her back will last a lifetime.

Now, after years of homeschooling with loving adoptive parents, Mallory must face a new milestone—spending her senior year at public high school. But of all the terrifying and exhilarating scenarios she’s imagined, there’s one she never dreamed of—that she’d run into Rider Stark, the friend and protector she hasn’t seen since childhood, on her very first day.

It doesn’t take long for Mallory to realize that the connection she shared with Rider never really faded. Yet the deeper their bond grows, the more it becomes apparent that she’s not the only one grappling with the lingering scars from the past. And as she watches Rider’s life spiral out of control, Mallory faces a choice between staying silent and speaking out—for the people she loves, the life she wants, and the truths that need to be heard.

Why I'm Waiting

I've only ever read the Lux series by Jennifer L. Armentrout and honestly that is reason enough for me to check out any of her other work. The Lux series offered endless amounts of entertainment while still touching on some serious topics. For that series alone I going to try to read Jennifer L. Armentrout/J. Lynn book that has been published at least.

With all that being said, the summary sounds really interesting. From the description there seems like the main character might have some type of lingering trauma from some type of abuse. I feel like this is going to be one of those contemporaries that's going to give me all types of feels because of the problems the two main characters need to work through and because of the romance I'm sure will be included in this. I'm really excited for this release!
