Of course some of the characters behaviors and choices had me wanting to shout at my Kindle again (but I've promised my daughter I would stop doing that). I felt their bond was realistic and I found that I related to the close relationship they had. I liked and admired Lindsay and I also really liked Sophie. But it's also about Lindsay and Sophie, and many of the other characters. Of course the toxic relationship between Lindsay and Andrew is a big part of it. However, there are often those little red flags that pop up, that feeling in our gut that something isn't right.īut there's so much more to this story. Most of the time an abusive partner doesn't show their true colors right away. It can't be her ex-husband because he doesn't even know where they are.does he?īy taking us back to their early years together, we see how the relationship grew into the nightmare it became. Lindsay feels like she's being followed, and even feels like someone has been in her home. Will he keep that promise?īut then strange things start happening. And she's very focused on taking care of her teenage daughter, Sophie.īut what will happen when Andrew is released from prison? He promises that he's not going to bother them when he gets out. She now runs a small cleaning business, hiring women who were once in her position. It was hard starting over but she did it.

She leaves her abusive husband and he ends up in jail. And if he's been drinking it's even worse.īut Lindsay is one of the ones who gets away. An accidental brush of her hand against the male server is enough to send her husband into a rage. No matter how hard she tries she'll never be able to be careful enough. It's a full-time job trying to keep Andrew happy. Something as simple as Lindsay pulling away from his kiss before HE ends it could set him off. Lindsay can see the wariness that her daughter's eyes already hold, how nervous Sophie is around her father.

Lindsay constantly has to walk on eggshells, careful not to upset her husband and at the same time try to shield her seven-year old from what's going on. To others they appear to be another happy family. She averts her eyes and tries not to look at anyone, tries hard not to draw attention to herself. She wears a one-piece swimsuit, a cover-up, a hat and huge sunglasses to the beach. She can't just enjoy the sun and relax by the pool. But this is definitely not a vacation for Lindsay. Lindsay, her husband Andrew, and daughter Sophie are on holiday in Mexico. The book starts off from Lindsay Nash's point of view. 'Never Let You Go' is her newest novel that will be released in March of 2017.Īfter reading the book description I was pretty sure that I was going to love this book.
