Nasty Little Cuts

Although this book starts on Christmas Eve, it is not a Christmas feel-good novel, far from it. Nasty Little Cuts is based around a toxic, abusive relationship between the two main characters, Debs and Marc.

The book weaves back and forth in time giving you insight into how the couple met, their own family backgrounds and their present day mental health. It is raw and harrowing but one that I could not put down. It had me from the very first page.

Although I hated Marc I was also torn, I admit I did feel sorry for him at times. His demise was palpable and heartbreaking, I only wished he had reached out for support or had someone he could have turned to. Tina Baker has pledged to donate 10% of her royalties to The Samaritans
