Publisher Description
My son is missing, and everyone is lying to me.
**
Last night my son, Shay, sneaked out of the house and didn’t come home. He promised not to go to the illegal party in the woods. But someone’s been attacked and Shay has gone missing. The police want to know if he saw what happened. I’m worried he could be involved.
After all the trouble he’s been in lately, mixing with the wrong crowd, coming home beaten up and scared, I thought we’d put it all behind us. Trouble is, Shay resents me moving my new boyfriend into the family home. I found all sorts on his laptop, including a half-written email warning me not to trust David. What does he know that I don’t?
I’m beginning to fear for his safety. What is David hiding from me? Who have I let into our lives?
I don’t know who I can trust. Will I ever see my son alive again?

Loved!!!!!
My Review:
Wow!!!!! Enjoyed!!!!! What a fast paced gripping book that kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I raced through each chapter like it was my last just so I could find out what happened next. This is my first book by this author and it certainly won’t be my last one. I was hooked on her writing from the very first word. So let’s talk about this book for a minute. I really loved the main character. She was fierce and would stop at nothing to find out what was going on with her son. I could totally relate to her as I’m a mama bear also who would protect my son at all costs too. I love it when you can see yourself in the characters. Next up is the story line. I love all books that deal with children especially teenagers. They intrigue me since you never know what they are going to do next. Are they going act responsibly or irrationally. Since their brains are not fully there yet they could go either way. That’s why books about them are great. You never know what to expect or what is going to happen next. It makes for a great plot. Now let’s talk about that shocking ending. I was speechless. Endings are everything to me and this one rocked. I will definitely be reading more of this authors books in the future.
In conclusion, the plot, the characters and all the twists in this book made this book an enjoyable read. I would definitely recommend it and happily give it 5 Hearts❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
