Not the usual Kate brilliance but still a worthwhile read

It pains me to leave a 3 star review, because I love this author and Drive was book of 2017 for me, but this one didn’t work for me. It wasn’t as tight or as polished as Drive and at times felt manic. I found the pacing quite slow in the beginning, whilst overall it was wordy or over written with information and conversations that had no bearing on the story. The premise of Cameron and Abbie communicating via messages on their Mac was a brilliant idea but it was overdone and went on for far too long. So much so that it didn’t feel realistic to me and I didn’t buy it. I love a strong heroine and not one that is bitter or plays the victim card and sadly that’s how Abbie came across to me right from the beginning and I lost interest. Cameron was a great character and I thought his secret was what saved the story....... This book has a very interesting premise and a great hero with a very unusual secret that is well worth reading. I love Kate Stewart and the idea of this book. It’s the execution and delivery that let me down. I’m in the minority with my opinion because there is a lot love and 5 star reviews for this book.
