Instant New York Times bestseller "I absolutely loved this book and didn't want it to end." --Liane Moriarty, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Little Lies "This is an 'accidentally stayed up until 4 a.m. because it's impossible to put down' kind of novel." --USA Today Seven perfect days. Then he disappeared. A love story with a secret at its heart. When Sarah meets Eddie, they connect instantly and fall in love. To Sarah, it seems as though her life has finally begun. And it's mutual: It's as though Eddie has been waiting for her, too. Sarah has never been so certain of anything. So when Eddie leaves for a long-booked vacation and promises to call from the airport, she has no cause to doubt him. But he doesn't call. Sarah's friends tell her to forget about him, but she can't. She knows something's happened--there must be an explanation. Minutes, days, weeks go by as Sarah becomes increasingly worried. But then she discovers she's right. There is a reason for Eddie's disappearance, and it's the one thing they didn't share with each other: the truth.
I purposely won't re-read a synopsis right before starting a book, so all I remembered was that two people spent 7 days together and then he "ghosted" her.
Because of this, I think the plot was even more unexpected than it would have been and I loved it. Even as things were starting to be revealed, I kept guessing and flipping back to previous parts to see if I could make sense of things.
In not wanting to give any spoilers, I can only say I really loved the book and thought it did a good job touching on subject-matter beyond the expected romantic storyline.
Not your typical romantic "beach read" in the best way. It's ticks all the boxes and then some.

I loved this book. I couldn't put it down and read it in 1 day. It really had me guessing what would happen and it's a great love story!
Absolutely awful. Dull plot and even worse characters.
Published by Meghan , 4 years ago
Dull prose and ever duller characters. The story was BEYOND uninteresting. From the beginning I did not even care about this "mystery man" that the protagonist was absolutely, OBSESSED with. In my opinion the protagonist was unstable rather than relatable. The characters were BEYOND unlikable, especially the protagonist. Zero character development. I could not wait for this miserable book to end. Safe yourself the time and trouble, this was NOT worth it.
