Talk to Me - Jules Wake

Olivia and Daniel certainly aren’t talking the language of love…

Olivia has been in love with Daniel forever but, despite her best efforts, they’ve never been able to get it together. Their relationship has always been a series of mixed messages and misunderstandings, and the final straw comes when Daniel mysteriously starts dating her flat-mate, Emily.

Hurt and confused, Olivia resolves to forget her heartache with a spot of speed-dating. After all, what could possibly go wrong?

One crazy stalker later and Olivia’s life is becoming increasingly strange and scary. Can she rely on Daniel to step in when events take a terrifying turn, or will their communication breakdown ultimately result in tragedy?

My thoughts:
A romance with suspense thrown in, as the end does get really suspenseful.

Olivia has been in love with her friend Daniel for a while. But nothing has happened. But the spark is there, I can see it as I read and they so belong together. She is a nice girl, he is a nice boy. they should be.

But Daniel is dating her room mate. Noooo. And she was such a cow, I grew to loathe her as the book progressed. Trust me, you will also feel the same. Arghhh, what a cow!

So these two have a long way to go. He is with someone else, she thinks all is lost.

Now where does the suspense come in? Oh there is a stalker, a creepy creeping stalker. And who is it? What does the stalker want? What will happen? You will see.

Conclusion:
Romance, suspense and a friendship that has a suffered a bit.

  5. The story sounds good, but that cover is giving me mixed signals, lol. Like, is that a subtle way of saying "kiss my...dress's back", lol?

  9. I have a feeling I'm not going to like her roommate very much! But I love to hate a good character, it means I'm emotionally involved which is always a good thing:)

  13. The book cover doesn't seem to fit a story with creepy stalkers! Sounds good though - chick lit suspense!

    1. Well, it's a romance too and the creepy stalker is there in the background, not a threat before he is a threat
