I really like the idea of starting out the book as a romance and slowly leading it into more of a suspense/thriller plot. Although I didn't completely predict all of the ending, I did predict a lot of it.
Grace ends up at a secluded ranch with no cell service, working wifi, and a broken down car. At first all seems ok as she beings to get to know Calvin. Calvin quickly becomes obsessed with Grace and we see him do anything he can to keep her close.
I liked that we got the dual povs so we could understand what was going on in both their minds. But we find out that
But he's not the only one who has a secret.
Tropes: secret identity

As for the book in general, it moved so slow until the last 30 minutes (listened to the audiobook). There was nothing in the first 80% of the book to suggest these people were who they ended up being, so the “twist” (again, super confused…) just came out of nowhere… literally.

CONTAINS SPOILERS!!
Grace arrives at Calvin’s AirBnB for her annual vacation/totally off-the-grid escape from reality. Right away she notices that things feel “off” but stays TEN days as things get progressively MUCH worse because she’s hot for the owner, who says she’s “HIS” and “wants this to never end.” What could go wrong???
All this to say, this IS a good book and a worthwhile read, just not what I was looking for.
