The Blurb :
When Michaela Anderson signs up for a parachute jump she gets more than a case of vertigo…
Suffering last-minute panic, Michaela’s three colleagues go first. But just as she takes her leap of faith, an almighty gale blows up from nowhere.
When she returns to the ground, she finds the airfield deserted, her car gone and the seasons mysteriously changed. Posters nearby proclaim Michaela to have been missing for the last six and a half years…
But Michaela is determined to find out the truth. Was she kidnapped? Is she now suffering amnesia, or has something even more extraordinary occurred?
With the help of handsome pilot Matt, Michaela sets out to find the truth. And what she discovers rocks everything she has ever believed in to the core…
My Review :
Melanie Rose has set high standards for herself from my point of view with her previous two books and after reading this she has yet to fail with coming up with an interesting, unique plot that has kept me gripped all the way through, this book doesn’t disappoint!
The futher you get into this book more things arise and are discovered about the characters and even though Michaela finding out what happened to the 6 and half years of her life is the main storyline in this book there are many other storylines and at some points in the book you forget about Michaela finding out about what happened to her. Even though not everything is based around her finding this out you get the feeling with this book that everything written is important to the plot and in the end you see the importance of a lot of things you didn’t before. This makes the book very intriguing and makes it very hard to put down. The ending wasn't what l was expected and because of this l feel like something small is missing from this book but in another way the ending is a great ending to a great book, l am stuck between the two .. maybe because l didn't want the book to end. I love books which you put down after reading the last page with a smile on your face and a sort of connection with the character.
Michaela wakes up 6 years later to a new world with new troubles, secrets and lots of unanswered questions ; where has the last 6 and half years of her life gone? People around her come up with many different theories while Michaela tries to find peace in a few theories.
