Sempre (Forever) by JM Darhower

I haven't even finished the book but I have the feeling I'd like to share it so badly. 

The story and the way it's told. 

The characters. 

I love them and have to share them :)

Sempre

Here's the note from the author.

While Sempre is a work of fiction, the concept of modern-day slavery is not make-believe. There are an estimated 27 million people inthe world today, coerced and forced into sexual or labor slavery. The majority of them are female, half being young girls. They're our mothers, our fathers, our sisters, our brothers. They're our friends, our lovers, our neighbors, our kids. They're us. It could happen to anyone, even you.
 
Human trafficking is the second most lucrative crime in the world, making more money every year than Google, Nike, and Starbucks combined. It happens everywhere, from the poverty-stricken providences of Cambodia to the affluent suburbs of California. Two children are trafficked every minute-that's 2880 a day.
 
Become an abolitionist.
If we don't fight for them, who will?
