Eden and her fellow survivors look to the future in this powerful story of justice, autonomy, and healing told in multiple points of view—the powerful conclusion to the Way I Used to Be trilogy from internationally bestselling author Amber Smith.
Eden struggled to find her voice for years after her brother’s friend Kevin raped her. It wasn’t until Kevin’s ex-girlfriend Gen and his sister, Amanda, came forward, that Eden knew she wasn’t alone. Telling her family was hard, reporting to the police even harder—and giving testimony on a witness stand was next to impossible.
Eden, Gen, and Amanda have done everything in their power to pursue justice. And now, in the wake of the jury’s decision, they are expected to move on—even as they’re still grappling with grief and hurt after their lives were turned inside out. With Amanda finishing high school, Eden still adjusting to college, and Gen determining what she wants to do when she graduates, each girl has to chart her own course forward to find healing and discover the woman she’ll become.
