Description
"A five-alarm fire of a situation…the surprises keep coming." —The New York Times
Secrets, obsession and vengeance converge in this riveting thriller about an online dating match turned deadly cat-and-mouse game, from the New York Times bestselling author of Confessions on the 7:45
She met him through a dating app. An intriguing picture on a screen, a date at a downtown bar. What she thought might be just a quick hookup quickly became much more. She fell for him—hard. It happens sometimes, a powerful connection with a perfect stranger takes you by surprise. Could it be love?
But then, just as things were getting real, he stood her up. Then he disappeared—profiles deleted, phone disconnected. She was ghosted.
Maybe it was her fault. She shared too much, too fast. But isn't that always what women think—that they're the ones to blame? Soon she learns there were others. Girls who thought they were in love. Girls who later went missing. She had been looking for a connection, but now she's looking for answers. Chasing a digital trail into his dark past—and hers—she finds herself on a dangerous hunt. And she's not sure whether she's the predator—or the prey.

Reviews
Average story.
3By Clogue33Bland characters; the overuse of characters and their dreams to propel the story forward always feels like a copout.Last girl ghosted
4By jdnsisksPretty good read, enjoyed how it semi points out some of the problems our society has brought to the world.Great read!
5By Jekaplan floridaGreat, great book with a lot of twists and turns, right til the end. Grab this book and self in, it grips you from the start.Interesting Concept, Mid Execution
3By sadefibaugh95A compelling story that maintains its suspense from start to finish, with interesting main characters whose emotions feel genuine and backstories well developed—particularly the lead. That being said, there are plenty of annoyances with this book, from the drawn out scenes—which make the story longer than necessary—to inconsistencies in characterization and the unnecessary plot points that offer some world building, but distract from the main story. Check this book out if you’re looking for a solid mystery you can work through over a few weeks, but not for the substance.Could not read it.
1By Paleo SchnauzerI just polished of another of this author’s books which I enjoyed tremendously. I was so dismayed to discover that this story was told in first person and worse in a present tense. I stopped at page 2.Last Girl Ghosted
4By Geri WolfConfusing at times but goodUnputdownable Psych Thriller
5By Nanna TeacherWith memorable and relatable characters, the author tells the story of a young woman who is trapped in the world of online dating by an evil predator, one who sees his victims and disappears with them. When Wren Greenwood was a child, she suffered at the hands of a father with PTSD, a man who destroyed his family while insisting that they live off the grid. As an adult, she has changed her identity and offers advice online to others whose lives have been ravaged. Once she meets Adam on Torch, she is hooked and thus the conflict escalates. Slow paced at first but quickly picking up the pace to race to an inevitable conclusion. I enjoyed the vulnerability and openness of Wren and the doggedness of investigator Bailey Kirk. Mostly, I enjoyed this walk into the dark side of the internet and all of its dangers. I purchased a copy of this book and was not required to write a positive review.Thoroughly enjoyed this!
5By Ch1cG33kI’m not a huge reader. But wow, this is really a great story. It kept me engaged, it’s modern & I’m grateful to find this writer. I just downloaded her previous book.Amazing
4By rbc722What a breath taking book. I didn’t want it to end! I’m not sure if it’s because I related so much with the character or because of the wisdom dropped on every page. 10/10 recommendation. One of the best books I’ve readUninteresting
1By Georgia painterWaaaay to descriptive! More dialogue is necessary to hold your interest. I couldn’t connect with Wren, she was too whiny. You kind of just wanted it to be over. I found myself fast forwarding just to get to the end. Not there yet and I’m not sure I will make it.
