I started listening to the audiobook and didn't stop until I finished it. Brianna was a piece of work, let me tell you. That said, I am glad her story ended as it did. Note on the audiobook: There were many editing errors with sentences being repeated twice in a row. One more listen-through before release could have improved it greatly.

Content: domestic violence, gunshot wounds, stalking, kissing (fyi, Brianna tries her best to seduce Jake)...more

It was a bit over the top with all the love stuff (which was why I didn't give it five stars) but very clean and good for younger readers of Christian fiction. (I remember enjoying this one when I was 14.)
Content: nothing to worry about, maybe some kissing

Although it is very uncommon in most Amish-centered novels, but this one discussed anxiety and panic attacks. Also, I really wish that we knew what happened to the child that Katie found. Once she went to the police, the situation wasn't really ever mentioned again, leaving no closure. I really liked how there was not much of a romance plot as much as a deep friendship plot.
Tropes: love-triangle, friends to more
Content: mentions of an accident that took the life of Katie's boyfriend, infant abondenment, anxiety
