About the Novel
How far would you go to break a cycle before it breaks you?
Look What You
Made Me Do
Margot is no stranger to suffering. Such darkness feels familiar when you have a violent drunk for a dad and a single mom working multiple jobs just to stay afloat. But Margot yearns for more than these bleak circumstances.
When she falls for the golden boy of her small New England town, she thinks he will be her escape. But she is unprepared for how ugly twisted love can become. Breaking free isn’t easy, but unconditional friendship and untainted love spark a defiant hope that cannot be dimmed.
As the line between love and abuse blurs, Margot must face the stories she’s told herself about who she is and who she is becoming.
