Finally found this book to review. The story was pretty typical of the genre and some of the twists i saw coming a mile away. All in all a quick read tha tI still found enjoyable. A perfect read if you want something light that you don't have to think too hard about.

Thank you Netgalley for this arc

I am on the fence with unreliable narrator POV thirllers as sometimes it can just make the story bleugh but the author brings an authenticity to the gullability and hysteria that adds value ot the books so I think in this case it works in her favour.
A good ending and a few twists that were a little predicatable but nicely drawn out to keep me turning the pages, all in all a good solid psychological thriller and I'd give this author another go in the future.

A fast-paced, keep you guessing read where you can never quite tell what will happen next! This kept me up many evenings until I was able to finish it!

This book started out being a little slow but it picked up quickly. Jesse goes through a divorce and home invasion, as well as a fight for an inheritance, but gets the chance to have a fresh start. Her fresh start is ruined by an attack while out in public. This leads to a series of incidents happening to her which makes her think she's being deliberately targeted by someone. The ending of the book made up for the beginning and made it a worthwhile read. Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the advanced reader copy.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC ! All opinions are my own.

Jess, went through a lot. Like A LOT. After a extremely brutal divorce, a terrifying home invasion and an inheritance feud, Jess is determined to get her life back in line. After spending two years overseas, she is finally ready for this new beginning in her uncle and aunt’s hometown in a seaside town in England. When she gets attacked while walking down the street, and more creepy things start happening coincidentally, she has a gut feeling she is being targeted… but who wants revenge? And why come for her now?

It took me a few chapters to get into this book, but halfway through I found myself speed reading this. I felt like I was going through these twists with Jess, being manipulated and thrown off course on every corner. It was a brilliant psychological read. The story doesn’t have loose ends, and wraps up very neatly. Well written, clever and an absolute rollercoaster ride.

The book started off with a very interesting premise but the plot had a lot of loopholes so I could not sustain it till the end. Leaves you with a lot of unanswered questions and does not quote close the loop. picked it up for the description but did not enjoy this a lot.

Synopsis: Jess just got her life under control after a messy divorce, bitter inheritance feud, and terrifying home invasion, all behind her. After two years abroad, she is looking forward to a new beginning in a sleepy English seaside town where nobody knows her. When she is attacked in the street, she thinks it is rotten luck. There are more creepy thing occurring, to the extent, she begins to think she is being targeted. As these things begin to escalate, she feels it is someone from her past seeking revenge. How far will they go?

My Thoughts: The chapters are average length. Nora Valters delivers a chilling psychological thriller. The characters are well-developed. Some twists were predictable, while others surprised me. The first half was a slow burn, actually through about three-fourths. I generally like my thrillers fast-paced. At first Jess annoyed me, but then I became to be on her side, rooting for her. This is truly a work of fiction as some of the events may not be possible in real life. However, I still enjoyed the book and loved the ending,for the most part.

Rating: 3.5 stars

This was a fast paced book that I finished in one sitting. I felt the psychological tension throughout the book, as if I was in the place of the main protagonist. Some of the twists were predictable, but as a whole this was an enjoyable psychological thriller that I highly recommend.

I enjoyed this twisty and fast paced book even though it was just a tad predictable. The story centers on Jess, who is house sitting for her aunt and uncle in a little seaside town after going through a traumatic divorce. She meets Ashley and the 2 forge a quick and close friendship; Ashley is there for her when creepy things start happening that make her worried that events from her past have caught up with her.

The author provides a lot of choices as to who the villain could be, and while I did find the story predictable there were some surprises around how it all came together. Jess’ gullibility made me roll my eyes a couple of times but she was mostly a likable character. The end of the book definitely caused me to suspend my disbelief and I felt that everyone was tied up just a little too cleanly, but there was still something satisfying about it.

Overall, while not the most unique book I’ve ever read, I did enjoy it and felt that it was both a fast paced and engaging book. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Jess is certain someone she thought she’d left behind has finally caught up with her – and they want revenge. But who? And just how far will they go to push her over the edge and into oblivion? Truly could not put this down. Such a brilliant opening chapter and then so many twists and turns. This book is brilliant, really well written, good story which kept me interested from the beginning.

Full review to come on Goodreads and Amazon. Thank you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for a review copy.

My thanks to NetGalley and publisher Inkubator Books for the electronic copy.

"Here For You" is a psychological thriller with a twisty plot; it is well-written with description and dialogue which accentuate the sinister nature of this story.

After two years of travelling Jess returns to the UK to house-sit for her Aunt and Uncle while they're on holiday. It's a large house, complete with a deaf dog, Doug, in the seaside town of Weston. Hopefully she can put her past behind her now - no-one knows she's back. She's taken a space at The Hive, a co-working area in the town and it's there she meets Ashley. They immediately get on well together and have a lot in common. As they walk towards home Jess is attacked in an alleyway and rescued by Ashley - for a fleeting moment Jess thinks the attacker is her brother, Tim - but it couldn't be - could it? Jess asks Ashley to stay with her and then some really weird things occur which push Jess to the very edge of sanity, but Ashley assures her she'll always be there for her..........

This is a good enough read although I found it personally to be a bit predictable.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of this book, even though I didn’t get round to reviewing it until after the publication date!

After a traumatic time, Jess returns to England after travelling for 2 years. Dog sitting in her aunt and uncle’s house seems to be going well, especially when she meets Ashley, who is right on her wavelength. The girls form a strong friendship very quickly, and a new man on the scene makes Jess believe that things are finally turning round for her. But then strange things start to happen. Doorbells ringing in the dead of night, notes nailed to the front door and damage to the car. In the midst of what feel like losing her mind, Jess needs to find out what’s happening, and why.

I enjoyed this book, it was a page turner and kept my interest from start to finish. However, I definitely guessed early most of the twists and turns, which is unusual for me as I am generally really bad at that sort of thing.

A sold 4 stars regardless.

I am awful at predicting the plot twists of thrillers. People will say, “oh I saw that coming from chapter 2”. Not me. I never get them until the end! However, this one was a little obvious even for me. There were a few extra details I hadn’t predicted, but overall I was disappointed in how easily I guessed it. That being said, it was a quick read and some parts still surprised me at the end! Not my favorite, but not awful.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

A Downward Spiral
Jess thinks she has her life back on track following a catalogue of miserable events and has settled in a seemingly good place, a seaside town where she is convinced that no one knows her. Things are about to take a downward spiral. Is someone watching her? Is someone about to reek revenge? Fluid psychological suspense with twists aplenty and well formed characters and, whilst the plotline may be somewhat predictable, it is still a gripping and compelling read.

This was an interesting read. This was my first Nora Valters book, and the cover was what grabbed my attention. For the first half, I got some major Single White Female vibes and kept praying nothing would happen to Doug the dog. The second half was a little out there, but this author still kept my attention with twist after twist. While the ultimate twist was predictable, I enjoyed following the journey to the end, as the protagonist was likable and relatable and it was interesting to see how we would get to the ending. I look forward to another book by this author.

Nora Valters is a brand new author to me, so when I saw the cover and synopsis, I was more than a little intrigued. Being published by Inkubator Books just topped it off for me. I jumped at the chance to join ZooLoo's Book Tours for the blog tour of this book.
A psychological thriller that certainly showed me what I have been missing by not reading any of Nora Valters' work before this. A story that has enough suspense to keep you on the edge of your seat as you work your way through all the twists and turns.
We meet Jess, our main character who is returning back from abroad for a fresh start in a new place. Her happiness with her fresh start soon begins to sour as disturbing things begin to happen and as they ramp up we see Jess feeling tormented and targeted. The question is who can she trust?
Jess is a character who I believed from the start. I could relate to her and her past, too. As the story unfolded, I almost felt as tormented and manipulated as I sped through the book. I couldn't be sure at one point if Jess was mentally unstable even. That's how many twists and turns this story has. Nora Valters characters are interesting and kept me guessing throughout.
I actually read this in one day. The minute I picked this book up and began reading, that was it for me. I just kept on flipping the pages until I knew everything! A psychological thriller I would definitely recommend.

DNF.
I wanted to love the story, but it was so incredibly predictable. The story was generic and honestly boring.

I enjoyed this book, twists and turns galore where a woman is trying to keep ahead of herself in escaping her past but as we know the past has a way of catching up to one at some stage…

I wasn't blown away by this one sadly. I liked the premise but there wasn't really anything unique or special about it. It was all a bit "been there, done that" so lacked a bit if the suspense since It did feel like something I'd read a million times. I did like the way the book was written, the character was a bit unrealistic and needy for my liking but thats just my personal gripe about women being stereotypically written as weak after a trauma, rather than being made to be a survivor. If you are a die hard domestic noir reader then you might feel its a buy predictable however, it is an enjoyable story none the less and will pass a few hrs! If you're not familiar to this plot line then this book is definitely a good place to start
