This is a totally wild ride and is compulsively readable! Super fast-paced… readers who enjoy Freida McFadden will enjoy this one. It’s not super well written (especially the men’s POVs), but it is definitely entertaining.

Woah this was a whirlwind of a book! I couldn't quite put it all together but I liked that. I enjoyed some parts and others I thought were a bit exaggerated and odd. 2 Women disappear and they live different lives. Who is Trent and how is he connected to both of these women? Was this the most realistic book ever? No. I had a hard time with the far fetched twists and dumb character decisions. But overall, I finished this super quickly and it helped me during my reading slump! *** I head the audio has a full cast narration so check that out! I feel like I would hve enjoyed it a bit more.

SO LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT A 📖 I JUST FINISHED! Holy crap, the twists and turns!
I am shocked that this is a debut and I wish I could talk to Jesse Garcia because DAMN this book was #deliciouslytwisty #sexyandsuspenseful. I knew how it would end but then BOOM another twist slapped me in the face and I was SHOOK!

All I will say is two women meet on a plane with nothing yet EVERYTHING in common. Don't believe me? Pick up #thebusinesstrip by #jessegarcia and find out for yourself!

This book deserves all the 🌟 and more! I haven't read this good of a #psychologicalsuspenseful #thriller like this in a long while.

I absolutely devoured this gripping book! With shifting POVs and layers and layers of thrills, this one is a must-read!

Love a good workplace thriller. This one did not disappoint, although it did get pretty predictable at the end. Would recommend.

First, if you have the opportunity to listen to this book please take that route. It’s a full cast of narrators and it felt like watching a movie.
The beginning of this book really sucked me in. It was such an entertaining read. By the time we got to the middle I felt a shift in the writing and storytelling though. The writing felt a bit amateur and repetitive by the middle and the story became unbelievable for me. The twist at the end was neat, but still wish the writing felt differently.

I could not get into the book, as many times as I tried it was slow, repetitive, and unrealistic. I could not connect with any of the characters and questioned every move they made. I twist was not as big as I expected, but also was predictable.

The audiobook is told by an ensemble cast, and that helped the pacing of the book. Had I not listened while reading this book I most likely would have DNF'd it.

Thank you to NetGalley, St. Martin's Press, and Macmillan Audio for an advanced reading and listening copies of this book.

Stephanie and Jasmine have nothing and everything in common. The two women don’t know each other but are on the same plane. Stephanie is on a business trip and Jasmine is fleeing an abusive relationship. After a few days, they text their friends the same exact messages about the same man—the messages becoming stranger and more erratic.

And then the two women vanish. The texts go silent, the red flags go up, and the panic sets in. When Stephanie and Jasmine are each declared missing and in danger, it begs the questions: Who is Trent McCarthy? What did he do to these women— or what did they do to him?

This book had a slow start as it builds up and I will admit it took me a bit to really get into the story. I was very curious though to figure out what was going to happen next and how the story would end and was happy that the story line really picked up in the second half. This is when the twists and turns stated coming at you and just when I thought I had the whole story figured out and it would surprise me. A fun psychological thriller with a clever plot that was a fun read.

Such a great book to pull you out of a reading slump! I read this in a day or two and could not put this down! A twisty thriller with multiple POV's. What a debut!! Stephanie & Jasmine knew nothing about each other, but board the same plane. Jasmine is fleeing a toxic relationship and wants to start over, while Stephanie is headed on a business trip. A few days go by, and both women text their friends/colleagues the same exact messages involving a man they just met. They're both saying they're in lust with this guy and then...they vanish. SUCH a wild ride, I did not predict the twist and while the ending was quite far fetched, I loved the ride! This pulled me from the depths of my own slump and will definitely be anticipating Garcia's next book!

Full disclosure I partnered with SMPG and all opinions and review are completely my own.

At first it was giving Strangers on a Train/Plane vibes but holy heck it surprised me in all the good ways!! I devoured this!!!

I enjoyed the multiple pov on this story. It was a quicker read. At times I had to go back and re read for some details but it’s a good domestic thriller

I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

I was not a fan of this book. There are so many different POVs, from the main characters to side characters that some parts felt jumbled and hard to follow.

Not only that, but the entire plot was outrageous. I'm all for suspending reality when reading a good book, but this just wasn't good. Nearly every character was unlikeable and some of them bordered on caricatures of themselves (looking at you, Trent).

This book actually put me in a reading slump for quite a while.

A propulsive, page-turning read that turned into an absolute farce with an ending out of left field that dropped this strong 4 star rating down to an eye-rolling 2.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this E-ARC. I was drawn into the story right from the beginning but at some point the story just lost me. Too much repetition, and unlikeable characters made this one tough to get through at times. The premise was great but the execution needed some work.

This one was exciting and fresh. I enjoyed the twists and turns, and did not have all the pieces figured out. The plot was well planned out and the characters were believable. This is a fun read. I gave this book 3 stars because it was good, fresh, and enjoyable but I would not call it the best read of the season.

This was such a good twisty thriller!! I had no idea where it was going and I couldn't put it down. I loved the different povs of all the characters I feel like it added so much to the story and learning about Stephanie and Jasmine and Trent.

Unfortunately I couldn’t get into this one. I gave up after 50 or so pages. I read some spoilers and it sounded pretty far fetched but others seemed to have loved it!!!

Unfortunately, I had to DNF this book at 71%.

This book was a major disappointment for me. I actually loved the first three parts (~65%) and was extremely invested in the characters and the story.
While the writing in this book tends to be more on the simple side, it contains very short chapters and is told from multiple POV, so it was absolutely impossible for me to put down at first. However, when I started the fourth and final part of the book, I found that the content rapidly turned dark and somewhat difficult to read at times and the plot become very far-fetched. Thrillers can be difficult for me, because I'm pretty sensitive to ridiculous plot twists which tend to be a staple of the genre. In the end, this book obviously did not work for me, but I think it could be a good fit for readers that don't mind unrealistic endings. Overall, despite DNFing this book, I was impressed that this was a debut novel and would definitely try this author again in the future just based on the first 3/4 of the book!

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!

Wow! What a great debut novel! This is a heart-pounding thriller that I couldn't put down. Told in multiple POVs, this story will keep you on the edge of your seat. I loved the characters and learning about each of their lives and personalities.

So many twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the end. This was a super fun read.

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the digital ARC of this book.

Readers will love this book for fast paced twists and turns, gasp worthy moments and great characters.
