I did end up putting it down for a bit but once I picked it back up, I couldn&#8217;t stop reading. I&#8217;m sure you all know how that is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First we meet Chloe and her friends. I wasn&#8217;t a huge fan of her friends but I also didn&#8217;t want what happened to happen to them. They just gave off a mean girl vibe and definitely didn&#8217;t seem to fit what I would imagine Chloe&#8217;s friends to be like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They go to a hot springs and that&#8217;s when their lives are changed for ever. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The story then jumps several years and we officially meet Frankie. Her and Chloe were inseparable as kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The book shows us Frankie&#8217;s life and how she copes with the disappearance of her cousin and best friend. She still believes she&#8217;s alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the story progresses and we reach part 2, my theory had been correct. But it was the only twist I could figure out. The rest? I was shocked and had absolutely no idea how things would play out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I really liked the twists and turns, so much so that I ended up picking up another book by Steph Nelson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please be sure to read the warning and don&#8217;t take it lightly. Well a lot of things mentioned aren&#8217;t on page, they can still be triggering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One Click &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4sbftyn\">https:\/\/amzn.to\/4sbftyn<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Perfect for fans of Noelle Ihli and Stacy Willingham, this chilling, riveting thriller unravels the dark secrets behind Chloe Webster\u2019s disappearance and her shocking return twenty-five years later, as her cousin Frankie races to uncover a truth more terrifying than she could imagine.
