Summary
Athena Brkovich believes in true love.
Born into a blue collar family in 1968, young Athena and her sisters are sent away when their mother is hospitalized and their father is unable to care for them. The beginnings of trauma, separation, denial, and suffering set Athena on her path.
Brilliant, but naive, Athena refuses to grow up and become part of an adult world she doesn't trust. But as time unfolds, the guilt that swirls around her beloved sister Lejla and the blossoming desire for her soulmate, Niko, plunge Athena into confusion. When circumstances bring them all together in high school, betrayal threatens to engulf Athena in shame and hatred.
No matter how many walls Athena builds to escape her painful past, she must confront the person she is becoming in a society where only the strong survive.
Compelling, and at times tragic, book one explores the themes of childhood trauma, family conflict, alcoholism, and teenage love. Despite the darkness, Athena struggles to follow the little light inside herself, guiding her to forgiveness, peace, redemption, and the ultimate prize, love.

I can’t wait to see where life takes Athena
This book explore topics that some may find difficult however, are topics that are real and we should be aware still exist now!
Whilst the story focuses on Athena who at times I struggled to warm to as you explore her journey more it is very clear what leads her to certain choices.
There were times and I would say no don’t do that but you step back and see she hasn’t been show there are other paths.
She is a victim of her circumstances and is trying her best despite these.
Her world is lonely and often through the story my heart hurt for her
