Two Nights? Gimme MORE!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
⏰ 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐫: Ariel Pryce’s husband John has been kidnapped in Lisbon. Poof. Gone. To get him back, Ariel has to delve into her past to cover the ransom. But it’s a past fraught with trauma and mystery and Ariel is flung back into the spotlight.
💡𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬: Ooooh Lisbon! Sign me up for this trip (minus the kidnapping!), but what a backdrop for this well-fashioned, tautly-told tale that reads like an action movie with a twist of mystery. Ariel is a likeable protagonist – sharp, smart, and smooth despite being a “country girl.” But oooh there are secrets there…
This is a perfectly done plot – in unfolds one piece at a time, layers upon layers of “what?”, “OMG!”, and “No!” Revealing a little at a time makes the reader wonder (and KEEP wondering) while bringing to light what I call a “travel mystery” – a foreign location, bad dudes around, sketchy happenings, all with a setting to die for. Love it.

😍𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨: Oh this is a great one for all. Not too gritty or gruesome but not cutesy or cloying.
🙅♀️ 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨: There is mention of assault so if anything in that realm disturbs you, avoid.
Thank you to the author, NetGalley and Farrar , Straus, & Giroux Books for my advanced copy in exchange for my always-honest review and for new passion for “travel mysteries.”
