Trade ReviewIODE Violet Downey Book Award - Shortlist real and true to life As the story moves along, [Anita Daher] does a good job of slowly revealing more and more background information about Tia and Tags relationship with their mother and their life situation with her. Tias relationship, hot and cold, with her foster mom also rings true to life as Tia wrestles with all of her emotions. Recommended by CM Magazine!
