My review of The Girl In The Closet by Michelle Heard

Bridget "Birdie" Liles has lived her life in fear but felt a little bit safer while her father has been in prison and she was adopted by Pastor & Mrs. Liles when she was 5 years old. But now 15 years later her father is out of jail and she is barely holding on.

Cole Trenton grew up with Birdie and she was a very special part of his life but he had decided to join the Marines and he left Birdie in their small town.

Now 8 years later Cole is back after the death of his best friend. Will Cole try and pick up the pieces with Birdie again or will she push him away knowing her father could come for her at any moment?

This was such an awesome read and this series is so awesome so far!!

I loved Birdie and she was just this girl that you wanted to pick up and make all her pain go away. She was coping so much better than I imagine I ever could but at the same time she wasn't. I could understand why she was reluctatnt to get involved with Cole as part of her must have thought that she was going to die soon.

Cole was living with so much grief after what happened to Hunter that he was really struggling but then found a purpose with trying to keep Birdie safe. I liked that they had a past together and that he had cared about her for so long.

I loved watching the change in both Cole and Birdie with how they adapted to the pain of their respective pasts and how they made the decision to move on from it and grow and figure what they meant to each other.

You knew the whole time that something was going to go down but it was a matter of when and where. I liked how it all happened but I was almost expecting more due to the big lead up to it.

The very end was awesome!

The end of the book with Reece left you hanging a little bit and I can't wait to see what happens in her book next!!

5 Stars
