Another great one from Minka Kent! I have been a fan of this author since her debut "The Memory Watcher".

After Brienne's attack and her return from the hospital,, she is afraid to leave her house and becomes somewhat agoraphobic. When she receives a key in the mail from Harcourt Property Group and informed that it is for the 1 bedroom apartment she rented, she is floored. Why on earth would she rent an apartment when she owns her own house? Fear starts to set in and she needs answers. Enter her tenant, Dr. Niall Emberlein. With no friends or family, she must rely on him to find out what is going on.

This book was suspenseful and intriguing and had me guessing from the very start. I have found each book by this author very enjoyable and I can't wait for the next one! If you have not yet read a book by this author, you need to try one, I highly recommend!

Thank you so much for the advanced reading copy!

Whew! What a thrilling, action packed ride filled with secrets, lies, manipulation and confusion! Every time I thought I had figured out where this story was going, TWIST, it went another way! The suspense kept me on my toes and sucked me in from page one! I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Fantastic read!

Twists and turns galore! The storyline was a challenging endeavor, and I think it was put together well given the challenge. I found it hard to believe Brienne's character many times however, which put a slight damper on the story for me. Overall, I love this author and found all her books to be very enjoyable!!

I absolutely loved When I was You, by Minka Kent. I Love a good suspense and this book met it. Dr. Niall Emberlin was a real piece of work. Brienne Dougray, was his mark and she fell right into his plot. You really need to read this book. I could not put it down until I finished it.

This book would make a great movie. It kept my attention throughout. There was only one thing that stretched its credibility for me and that was Brienne's bravery and ability to confront the villain alone despite the terrible trauma she'd experienced that kept her more or less housebound. That aspect could be reworked just a bit for believability, I think, but other than that, it was a very entertaining, and unfortunately, a shockingly believable story.

Brienne is attacked and having a hard time getting back into living. As she try’s to get back to her life she thinks someone is living as her. Her tenant Niall is helping her feel safer. Things take some turns from this point...

I thought I had it figured out until part 2. Well played Ms Kent!

It started pretty mysterious, you don't know what is going on and I have to admit I did not imagine that outcome. It was a three part story, first Brianne, than Neil, than both. It was very emotional for me, I was so mad at times, because I hoped that finally Brianne see what's going on. It was a good book, pretty diabolical ideas, but good ideas for a suspense story. I don't want to give away a lot, but it was nerve wreaking for me, now I def. need to read a romance book to come down.
I received an ARC for an honest review.
