   Summary

   While Ian does everything he can to give Mickey stability and security, a new battle begins for both of them:
   Against the trauma of abuse and manipulation.
   Against the guilt and the feeling of being wrong and defective.
   Against society and a system that was never built for people like Mickey.
   Can love grow in a world like this?
