Great story

Come Back to Me deals with many dark subjects that are important to talk about, even if it is not easy. And that certainly is something that the characters in this book need to learn! A twisty psychological story jumping from the past to the present, slowly revealing the connections and explaining why Alex drops everything to go with the mysterious woman, Julie, that he meets up with on a dinner date with his wife, Chloe, and Max, her coworker at the law firm where they work. I had to keep listening to this book because, while I did yell a few times for the various parties to stop, explain their actions, and listen to everything people were saying, there are mitigating circumstances, not the least of which is pregnancy, plus the whole back story of of the nightmare Julie/Amy had gone through (can't blame her for what she does, I probably would do the same thing or worse). So, it was a good story and though it really goes all in on subjects that are sensitive and might be triggering, people do need to bring it to light, because sadly it is more common, and this book will keep me thinking about it for awhile. I am glad I got the chance to listen to this and will definitely look into seeing what else this author has written. The narrator, Flora Ogilvy, did a great job in bringing the characters and their story to life in this audiobook.
