ARC REVIEW: IN THE GARDEN OF DISCONTENT BY LILY WHITE
TITLE: In The Garden of Discontent
AUTHOR: Lily White
GENRE: Suspense
PUBLICATION: February 19th, 2020
Synopsis
This is a love story.
It’s brutal.
Heartwrenching.
Terrifying, honest, and raw.
But a love story nonetheless...because it is so beautiful.
Ensley:
Noah Carter was the type of guy that every girl wanted.
Gorgeous. Talented. Smart and kind.
He was the world that revolved around me even though I didn’t deserve him.
But then something went wrong.
He snapped maybe, just lost his mind.
I found him the night my family died, their blood staining his hands.
I put him in prison. I got my revenge.
But then years later he broke free and stole me away from my life.
Noah:
You couldn’t know Ensley without wanting to strangle her.
She was beautiful. She was wild. She was the girl next door.
I grew up with her by my side.
I watched her destroy herself while I held on.
I protected her when she had been blind to the danger that surrounded her.
I let her go once, only to find her again.
She would see me this time no matter what.

My Review
'IN THE GARDEN OF DISCONTENT'
Is a suspenseful, full length dark romance book by Author Lily White. Spoken in 'Dual Perspectives. Flits from 'Past to Present' fluidly.
ONE WORD!! ➤HolySHIT!! This book deserves my full five star rating! No one is going to be prepared for this story!! I'm going to make this review as vague as I can, because you truly need to go into this one blind.
This book is not going to be for everyone mainly because of some of the subject matter disclosed but omg it just made for a truly unique, unpredictable, raw, heartbreaking and utterly riveting read! This book pulled me out of my 4 star drought!
It was everything I could’ve wished for and more!
An unconventional love story, two lost souls bound by their unbreakable bond over burying a feral cat at the ages ten and eleven, the new boy in town, and a girl chained by her mother's despicable treatment of her, a boy who strived to protect her and loved her unconditionally. Oh how this story broke my heart.
I’ve never loved two characters more than I have these two, I just wanted to wrap them up in cotton wool and hide them from the horrors this author put them through.
“If you need somewhere to go, you can run to me. even if just for an hour. I'll leave my window open and turn the lamp on when my mother isn't home. That way you know we won't get in trouble.”
Noah, a gentle boy, a caring boy, a boy who loved so much, but above it all he was a pillar of strength. He had so much to give.
A love that knew no bounds. Best friends. Soul mates.

Ensley, the life she endured broke my heart, imprisoned within the walls of her childhood home only to keep her siblings safe. Words can’t describe how much I felt whilst reading how she was mistreated. She truly thought she was undeserving of love, to be the laughing stock of the town.
