I genuinely enjoy books that have a great story line with a lot of suspense in them. This sounds like a book I could read without any complaints. Nice review!

This is professionally written and is reliable because the author has a background study with psychiatry. I like how he writes his book and how he explains scenes with medical-related things. Thanks for a wonderful review. :techie-reference:

This book sounds intriguing, particularly with Victoria having to take her own daughter to therapy just like she had to go to therapy. However, I’m not very fond of plots in which therapists develops romantic feelings for patients. It could still make for a good read; I just don’t like all the ethical issues that accompany such plots, even if addressing them in the story does make at least make the plot more appropriately complex. Thank you for the helpful review.

From the title, I thought this would probably be a nonfiction. However, after reading the review, I found the book too appealing to pass. Thanks for the awesome review!

I wonder what prevented Victoria and Jonas from ending up together, and how things played out after meeting again after several years. I hope Melinda got good therapy! Sounds like her mother would be needing some of that....Thanks for the review.

Thank you for sharing your review with us. I initially thought this was a self help book, but after reading your review it is clearly fiction.

Victoria seeks the help of her ex-therapist to attend to her daughter’s psychological issues. This must be very difficult to Victoria, considering her history with her therapist. This debut novel sound intriguing. Congrats on botd!

Victoria reaches out to an old friend, Jonas, to help her daughter, Melinda, who needs a psychologist. The unfolding drama will keep readers engaged. The book contains many medical and psychiatric terms, but the author presents the content in a digestible manner; hence non-specialists will understand.

I like family drama, especially when there's an aspect of psychology thrown into the story. I initially thought it's just another book on romance, but after reading the review I changed my mind. I'm looking forward to reading how they resolved their conflict. Congratulations on the BOTD.

Did Victoria make the right decision by involving her therapist in this situation? I would love to find out.

This is so interesting! I thought it's a non-fiction book. I was ready not to read it. Lol. But it looks like this is really my genre. I'm so willing to give this a try. Thanks a lot for sharing! So excited
