Living amidst the vagrant seekers who take up residence in Jackson's utopia, Sienna and Siddhartha strive to protect their unconventional family.

Loved listening to every minute

A beautiful heartbreaking story of resilience.. the characters were so personal-I felt the love, pain, sadness, joy, hope, desire they felt.. and when they ultimately accepted their reality, my heart broke and warmed all at once.. I highly recommend this read..

I loved this book so much

I absolutely loved this book. Jenna Brooke Wolloch does an amazing job bringing her characters to life in the 1980s Miami setting. I really felt like I was there and didn’t want the book to end highly highly highly recommend.

Couldn’t finish it

I wanted to love this book but the graphic SA scenes including a child of 12 was too much for me; I returned it. 🙁
