A MONSTER BY ANY OTHER NAME is a series about trauma recovery, not just trauma. However, the first book (FREAK CAMP) is the part of the story when the trauma takes place. 

Scenes in this book include child abuse, sexual assault, torture, brainwashing, and institutional dehumanization. There is also reference to past domestic violence that caused a miscarriage.

Please note: none of these dark scenes are written for entertainment, but rather as the framework for a journey of love, healing, and recovery. 

A “happily ever after”/”happy for now” is guaranteed at the end of every book and the series as a whole.

Specifically, this is a hurt/comfort story to the max: for every ounce of hurt, there will be a pound of comfort down the line.

Nevertheless, this book is absolutely not for everyone. I would urge anyone to stop reading if the content becomes too much for you. (Or—this is a slightly spoilery tip—try skipping to Chapter 13.)

As with all entertainment, please put your mental health first, always!
