Review: WITH YOU ALWAYS, by Rena Olsen

WITH YOU ALWAYS, by Rena Olsen

Putnam Books - Being released August 7, 2018

Thank you to Putnam Books and GoodReads for the ARC copy of this book.




My Rating (out of 5)
⭐⭐⭐

This was a good book, but wasn't quite as suspenseful as I thought it would be. 

This book starts slow - but I suspect that this is a deliberate move as the author portrays how getting into this type of situation is never a fast thing, but a slow gradual erosion of self. 

The story starts with Julia, who is on the heels of a failed relationship, and is struggling at work, watching those junior to her get promoted ahead of her. Feeling a little adrift both personally and professionally.

Along comes Bryce -successful, good looking and oh-so-charming. Bryce and Julia embark on a whirlwind romance. After a short time, Bryce brings Julia around his church and the Reverend that raised him. Soon Bryce proposes and Julia accepts, she is welcomed into the fold of his church and family, and everyone is happy.  But happiness is fleeting, and soon Julia is desperate and willing to do anything for a way out.

Overall a good book. Not a book with knock-you-over revelations and plot twists, but an enjoyable book nonetheless.


Available for order on amazon

 
Happy Reading, 
Christine
