Synopsis (from Goodreads):

Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend’s house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found.

Lily Scott, Nina’s friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake’s disappearance, especially not Nina. But Nina is out there looking for her husband, and she won’t stop until the truth is discovered.

Book Review:

Thank you Harlequin Trade Publishing for the copy of this book.

Read if you like: missing person mystery, dual perspectives.

Overall I really liked this book. I liked the two perspectives of Christian and Nina and the mystery behind the disappearance of Jack. I’m really proud of myself for guessing the mystery, which I don’t do very often! The only thing I’m critical of is the depiction of teaching as a profession, and some things didn’t make sense, but that’s just because I’m a teacher! Overall I was invested in this story and wanted to keep reading!
