Story
From the outside looking in, Lauren Delaney has a life to envy - a successful career, a solid marriage to a prominent surgeon, and two beautiful daughters who are off to good colleges. But on her 24th wedding anniversary, Lauren makes a decision that will change everything. Lauren won’t pretend things are perfect anymore. She defies the controlling husband who has privately mistreated her throughout their marriage and files for divorce. And as she starts her new life, she meets a kindred spirit - a man who is also struggling with the decision to end his unhappy marriage.

It was okay!

The book was nice and heart warming, but very predictable at times. The narrator was decent at the female voices, but all the male voices sounded the same to me.

Story
My little girl’s room is dark. Her bed is empty. I turn on her unicorn nightlight and bury my face in her pillow, my heart breaking. I know who did this. His name is Samuel Barlow. He has pale sallow skin and red-rimmed icy-blue eyes. But no one will listen. As darkness falls and rain lashes against the window, there’s a knock at my door and I open it to see those same eyes staring back at me. It’s his mother and she says she can help me find my daughter.

Story was okay, but the narrator’s wailing for the main character was too much.

SPOILERS AHEAD
I really like KL Slaters books for what they are. quick reads with some interesting characters and plot twists, but this one was not my cup of tea.
The main character was unbearable. She was so self righteous and ends up being the biggest villain in the end, but still got a happy ending?
Not to mention the voice over artist made Josie’s voice sound like nails on a chalkboard. The wailing was never ending, and I think there could have been a better way to express distress than constant screeching.
I really don’t like to say women are shrill, but my god this pushed me to my limit.
