On the outside, Brynn Michael appears to have it all. A successful career. A loving husband. A beautiful home.
But nobody, not even her husband, knows the depth of Brynn’s horror. Abandoned as a child on the side of the road by her young, drug-addicted mother, then later abused by her adoptive father, Brynn has spent her entire life hiding her physical and emotional scars.
As Brynn struggles to overcome her past so that she and Adam can begin a family of their own, the darkness refuses to let her go. The peace that Brynn has tried so desperately to cultivate seems just out of reach and even the love of Adam may not be enough to weather the storm.
Leaving Eva is the tragic and suspenseful story of one woman’s battle to overcome abandonment and abuse. In this powerful novel, author Jennifer Sivec explores the human resolve and our ability to not only survive, but thrive.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
3.5 Stars
I really liked the story line, it talked about abandonment and abuse. The idea behind this book is a very touchy subject and I think it was written well. However, it was very choppy, going from person to person, time frame to time frame and sometimes back again. It was hard to keep up at some points. For a lot of the book I was undecided if I wanted to read the next one or not, just because of the time jumps. But like with most good books, hello cliffhanger! I just hope the next ones timeline is laid out better :-)
