Description

From the author of When I Was You comes a spine-tingling new thriller about a mother’s worst nightmare come true, when her teenage daughter goes to a sleepover and doesn’t come back.

Whitney had some misgivings when she dropped her increasingly moody teenage daughter, Amelia, off at Lauren’s house. She’d never met the parents, and usually she’d go in, but Amelia clearly wasn’t going to let something so humiliating happen, so instead Whitney waved to her daughter before pulling away from the little house with the yellow roses in front.

But when she goes back the next day, an elderly couple answers the door—Amelia and Lauren aren’t there, and this couple swears they never were, that she’s at the wrong house. As Whitney searches for Amelia, she uncovers a trail of lies her daughter has told her—from the Finsta account to rumors of a secret relationship. Does she really even know this girl she’s raised? And Amelia’s not the only one with secrets. Could Whitney’s own demons have something to do with her daughter’s disappearance, and can Whitney find her before it’s too late?

    This was a good book, definitely not the ending I expected. This book needs a follow up book so that Amelia finds out the truth or maybe she is put in a situation similar to what Whitney did. This is a quick read and definitely recommend it.

    My Review: Wow, wow, wow what an awesome read this was. I loved every minute of it. Amber Garza you are my new favorite author. This was my first book by her and it sure as heck did not disappoint. I can’t wait to read the rest of your books. I want to start off by saying how much I loved this book. What really caught my eye right off the bat was the blurb. I really enjoy books about kids. Whether they are missing or even murdered I love them all. I really think it’s because children are so pure and innocent. This is why I want to know who would want to cause them any kind of harm. I especially love the teenage age group as they are right there on the line between a child and an adult. Their mind and how they think is so interesting to me. The character I loved the most in this book was the mom of the teenage girl that was missing. She was so determined in trying to find her missing daughter at all costs. She crossed so many lines and didn’t care. I know I would be the same way if my son went missing. Now let’s talk about that ending. You know the saying Your Past Will Always Come Back To Haunt You, well that definitely applies to this book. I can’t say too much as I don’t want to spoil it for anyone but this rings so true to this book. I loved how the author went back and forth between past and present. It was the perfect way to let the readers know how the past affected the future. Also, I couldn’t believe the way this book ended. I was shocked to the core. I thought I knew what the real story was and what was happening but I didn’t. I loved that about this book. It kept me guessing the whole time and all the way up to the end. This book had it all and I’m so glad I read it. Thanks Amber Garza for such a great book. Between the plot, characters and all the twists in this book it made it an easy and fast read. I would definitely recommend it and happily give it 5 Hearts❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
