Book Review - Don't Look for Me by Wendy Walker

 


 Molly Clarke disappeared during a storm.  Her car was found abandoned and out of gas near the highway. They found a note at a nearby hotel saying she is "walking away". Her family is shattered that Molly has abandoned them.

When Molly ran out of gas, a man and a young girl offered her a ride to safety. However, when the door automatically locked behind her, Molly has a feeling she made a terrible mistake.

 A woman comes forward with a new lead on Molly's disappearance. Nicole, Molly's daughter returns to the small, desolate town where her mother was last seen. Everyone is eager to help and have bits of information to share. Except it seems that everyone has their own motivates and secrets that they are keeping. Will Molly be able to find her mother?

The the book was a quick and interesting read. I was able to predict who the kidnapper was but, the ending was unexpected. I am not really sure I was a fan of the ending. It felt a little unbelievable. However, I am still open to reading other books by the author.

Laura Lochner doesn't have much luck in the love department. She has a habit of choosing the wrong men and falling too fast and hard for them. After her last relationship ended, she left her prestigious high paying Wall Street job to move into her sister's home in Connecticut. Although Laura is still haunted by her previous failed relationships, she is determined she will find love again online.

Rosie Ferro has spent most of her life worrying about her sister, Laura. She has been dealing with Laura's emotional rollercoaster since they were children. When Laura returns unexpectedly, Rosie questions Laura's return given her past. Her shadow of doubt grows when Laura leaves for her blind date one night and doesn't return home the following morning. Rosie begins to fear the worst and Laura left no information about the man she planned to meet. As Rosie begins her search for Laura, she is worried about what this mysterious man might have done to her sister but, also what Rosie might have done to him.

I found the novel to have an interesting premise as Laura wasn't portrayed as a damsel in distress. I thought that the novel had a good amount of suspense but, I felt like it didn't have many unexpected twists. Overall, it was a fun and great read and I look forward to reading more books by the author.

Book Review - Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker

Three years ago, the Tanners sisters just disappeared. The left no trace of their disappearance other than an abandoned car and a pair of shoes. Three years after their disappearance, Cass, the younger sister returns home. She recounts a story of kidnapping, betrayal, and heartache on a mysterious island. Dr. Abby Winter is a psychiatrist who is assigned to the Tanner case and she believes there is a lot more going on than Cass is telling. What is the story Cass is not telling? What happened on the island where Cass was held captive? Where is Emma?

The novel was a very suspenseful read. I kept falling into the rabbit hole with the novel but the writer's writing style left me wanting more. The ending was a bit of a disappointment as the farther I read, the less believable the story became. The characters were well-developed but  their actions were bit confusing at times and left disengaged from the story. An interesting read for those who like thrilling and suspenseful novels.
