After spending years working in the corporate world, Rotherham finally decided to pursue a lifelong passion for writing. They currently reside in a quiet suburb where they spend most of their time outlining new stories, reading extensively, and occasionally attempting to bake.
Not bad, but not my favorite. It had some good moments, but the overall plot felt a bit disjointed in the second half. Probably won't read it again, but it was an okay way to pass the time.
Donna JohnsonOctober 03, 2025
A solid read. I liked the main character, though some of the side plots were just okay. I'd probably recommend it to a friend.
