Publisher's summary

A “twisted page-turner that should appeal to fans of You.” (EntertainmentWeekly.com)

An International Best Seller

Named a Top 10 Debut Author to Watch by Popsugar | A Parade.com Debut Novel Everyone Will Be Reading

His first mistake? Thinking she'd let him go.

Juliette finally has it all. Great friends. An exciting new job that sends her to exotic locations all over the world. Best of all, she has a good, decent man who loves her, who wants to spend the rest of his life with her....

He just won’t admit it.

But Juliette’s not worried. After all, fate brought them together in the first place. If she and Nate are meant to be, they can weather any storm - even this break-up they’re going through now. Nate thought things had been moving too fast, getting too intense. All he needed was some space, though. Now that six months have passed since that awful night, it’s time for Juliette to put her plan into action.

It takes some convincing: cleaning his apartment while he’s out, leaving behind his favorite foods...little things to make him realize how badly he misses her. Once he sees Juliette has this perfect new life - and broken free from her dark past - he won’t ignore her anymore. Especially now that she’s working for his airline.

She’s not going to let him go so easily. Because their love is like a dream that never dies.

Even when it turns out to be a nightmare.

“Funny, creepy, surprising, scary, and exhilarating.” (Publishers Weekly)

Loved it!!!

No one can fight fate! Usually I get annoyed when a concrete ending isn’t provided, however, in this case not providing one really adds to the drama! You can imagine all the ways she will continue to traumatize and torture Nate! Great story.

A Long Haul

I liked the premise of this book, but the story went on forever with the (damaged) protagonist trying to catch this man who didn’t want to be with her. She goes from Plan A to Plan Z, in utter denial and the ending never resolves. Also, it was a very strange choice of narrator. Truly a case of a narrator not matching the book. I think the book was going for a modern, Gone Girl, vibe with a narrator that might have been better suited for a 1940s period piece. Distracting.

not for me

This novel was too tedious and too long for the abrupt ending we received. 2.5 stars for the unreliable narrator's tenacity.

Psycho

Story was a bit frustrating, but the narrator drew you in. She performed so well, i just had to hear what happened next.
