Step by step, in the chaos of the war around her, Grace tries to find the one who will love her. Step by step, Grace struggles to recover and love herself again.

War is brutal to the soul and body

Again.. a good story line but AI cannot pronounce words correctly.. It makes you laugh at a serious point in the story because of mis-read words..

The AI “voice” is so flat

The AI reading was so annoying. There’s no emotion or inflection, it is just flat and that makes it very aggravating!!!
