09/07/2017 12:01 AMTurtle’s life is not like everyone else’s. She has no friends and doesn’t want any. She can’t let anyone into her life, and she doesn’t know how to get out. Raised by her father, she is half wild and under his control/spell, which keeps her from the life she didn’t even know she longed for—until she meets Jacob. The life she should be living is now within reach, but can she break away from her father’s abusiveness and take control of her own destiny? Is her will to survive strong enough? Tallent has woven a story with a richly written heroine whose strengths and weakness are at odds, both inside her head and in the outside world, but whose skill at survival serves her in the end.
