Way We Become

Eden struggled to find her voice when her brother’s friend raped her – until she realised she wasn’t alone

When Eden was raped by her brother’s friend Kevin, it was almost impossible to tell her family, let alone report to the police. But when Kevin’s own sister, Amanda, and his ex-girlfriend Gen also came forward, the girls found strength in their solidarity and did everything in their power to pursue justice.

Now, in the wake of the jury’s decision, they are expected to move on while still grappling with the grief and hurt from the events that turned their lives inside out. With Amanda finishing high school, Eden adjusting to college, and Gen determining her path after graduation, each girl must chart her own course forward and discover the women they’ll become.

From bestselling author Amber Smith comes a powerful story of justice, autonomy, and healing that will sit with readers long after they’ve turned the final page.
