"This one releases 7/20, but I managed to get an ARC from the publisher and really loved this one! Aaron’s wife dies suddenly and he is left reeling. As he grieves, he finds out his wife had a background he never knew with a project that he needs to finish. It’s written beautifully with subtle paranormal elements and was overall just really great. Pick it up when it comes out! "
"Come with Me ⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book was an emotional rollercoaster. The MC finds a mystery about his wife after she is tragically killed in a shooting. I believe he kept her alive through chasing down leads throughout the story. This book kept my interest, but didn't have any twists or turns throughout the turn, really. It was straightforward, but beautifully written. The MC had split personality disorder which happens often when put through something extremely tragic. The ending was the only "twist" and it really got me thinking outside of the book. The author's note he put in there also left me speechless and made it more personal. Overall, very enjoyable."
"'Come With Me' was my first read from Ronald Malfi and this one will be up there with the absolute best of the year! <br/><br/>Ronald Malfi does an excellent job with this well crafted suspenseful mystery that also explores grief and obsession. There is a supernatural element to the story that ties in very well and does not actually require much suspension of disbelief. <br/><br/>If you love a slower paced mystery, serial killers, a creepy atmosphere, you will probably love this."
"Really liked this one! Had all of the elements of a thriller, even a paranormal aspect!"
