Skye has finally met someone she can trust. A holiday romance, of all things. But you know when something real comes along, when it's meant to be. Don't you? A week after returning home, and Johnny has disappeared. He hasn't called or returned her messages.
Then, with the easiest of lies, Skye finds a way back in to Johnny's life - and to the people in it. When she makes an unlikely friend, they realise that Johnny is telling lies of his own. So will the two women find a way to bring him down - or each other?
It ended with the truth.
I'd like to thank Alainna at Orion for inviting me to be a part of this blog tour and for my ecopy of I See Through You which I received to review via NetGalley.
I See Through You is actually quite a difficult one to review without giving too much away so I'll be keeping this one brief. It's basically a story of one woman's obsession with a man she meets on a winter trip to Chamonix who literally ghosts her when he returns home, not returning her phone calls or messages, so she basically stalks him and his family to get some answers.
Skye was one of those dysfunctional characters that you were cringing at her actions, I mean a thirty-something woman stalking his mother on Instagram, and then turning up at the same places as her, just to find out more about Johnny was just short of crazy but at the same time desperate times called for desperate measures. At times I will admit that I just didn't connect with Skye, and the slow pace of the story didn't engage me so I almost gave up reading, but there was just that little something that niggled at me and told me to keep on reading and I'm definitely glad that I did.
I See Through You is one of those books that you know there is more going on than first meets the eye so you have to wait patiently for that aha moment when something is revealed and then everything falls into place and starts to make sense. With its heart wrenching plot, and cleverly crafted storyline, this was the perfect introduction to the writing talent of Daisy McNally so I cannot wait to see what she has in store for us readers in the future.
