Synopsis
Nellie and her younger brother Peter had suffered a great deal of abuse and hardship at the hands of their stepmother, father, birth mother, and even a boy she adored.
Nellie's greatest wish throughout all of this was to find a place where she could leave happily with her brother without fear of their past following them both. But then another misfortune occurred, leading her to believe that no matter how hard she tried, her dreams would always be out of reach.
However, things improve when Nellie meets a boy named Delian, who teaches her that life can be both kind and cruel and that it is not always one-sided.
What happens when Nellie's now peaceful and almost perfect life is upended by an evil from her past life, who now claims to have nothing but good in its guts?

I love the author's use of imagery and the language they used when writing the story, and they were successfully able to handle dark subjects with grace and maturity. There are a few grammar mistakes here and there, but they don't detract from the story at all. The characters are written very realistically and as I reader I truly felt for them. Keep up the amazing work author!
Wow... i can totally relate to this. As a fellow Nigerian, I can understand what this book is all about and the fact that it still happens hurts. I totally recommend this. A job well done,author👍👍
An unexpected gem! What a bone-chilling presentation of a troubled household. Writers prose if fluid, easy to read and conjures vivid images easily. A fantastic read, I can't wait for more chapters!
Went through the first few chapters and so far I liked the book. The writer did an amazing job in introducing the plot and describe the events properly. Furthermore, the context of the story is quite different which will surely grab the readers' attention. [img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend][img=recommend]
Beautifully written literature! The descriptions and development of the characters makes the story come alive. Writing a true story is a bit tasking but the author makes it seem easy. I am still reading through but I am addicted already. Can't wait to find out what happens.

Amazing novel. It is when with every chapter it becomes more interesting. It is obvious that this novel is being written by a talented Author who definitely has a good imagination and skills. I recommend this novel.
Great starting. The situation is something that can be understood by some people and therefore makes the work more realistic and less fictitious. Great job!
This is one hell of an amazing story! 😍 Very well written, very descriptive and I love how the character development progress as chapters go on 😊 Kudos author!

I love the book and really enjoyed it. It's safe to say that im completely hooked! Can't wait for the next chapter and cant wait to see where you'll take this interesting plotline!
It is beautifully written and easy to read, making me feel like I was actually there. its quite dark but thilling. Keep up the good work,author can't wait to see what happen next.
I just went through the first few chapters, and i must say that from the first lines, the author captured all my attention. I love how they showed the suffer that some kids suffer with their step-parents, not only in African countries but we could talk about in the whole world. The author has amazed me with their wonderful words that make it easier for us to visualize the situation. I highly recommend this masterpiece!💜 Great job author! I'd surely read more of this book!
Nice story, though I haven't finished reading, I’m already addicted to this book. The writer did well in capturing the harsh realities of some typical african homes. What these children are going through with their stepmom is really horrible and unfortunate. The character presentation is okay. I can't wait for the full story. Please Keep it up.

Great formatting and writing structure. Although the chapters are a bit short, the content is good which isn't making the book less interesting, great job author!
Wow, this is a wonderful book. As a fellow Nigerian, I know about these kinds of scenarios very well—the blame games. Although there are times for prayer but people like Gift only ever blame the innocent for their misha**. The children don't deserve suffering. It's amazing how this book is coined from real-life events. It's amazing and sad. I love how realistic it is. The position the children are in is one I wouldn't wish on anyone. It definitely makes one eager to see how it all ends. A fine book indeed.❤
