The Other Side of Disappearing
by
by
This book was more than your usual romance novel. The focus was on the journey of self-discovery and trauma-processing. There was also a road trip to take and a mystery to solve.
It sounds like a lot but the themes were interwoven in a perfect way. The topic was not easy but the author approached it with her usual wisdom and respect for human emotions. I loved Jess and the bond she had with her sister. Their relationship was complex but wonderful and maybe even more important than the romance.
The romance itself was good but it wasn’t a magical, butterflies-in-your-belly, I-want-this-for-myself sort of thing. Both MCs were working through some heavy stuff and it was a lot to take at times. It was however wholesome how they found each other. I loved how Adam got Jess to trust him and how he protected her, and how Jess got out of her comfort zone for him.
Four stars and I can’t wait to read more from this author.
Thanks Kensington Books and NetGalley for the arc 💗

Thanks @Ri ♡ 💙 this author is my auto-buy so I have high hopes 😁
Congrats on the arc! 💗💗 hope you enjoy 🫶
I love so many of this authors books, but thought Georgie was just ok. I hope this is a winner for you!
Oooh hope you love!!!
Loved Georgie and hope this one is a delight!
Thanks @britta I loved Georgie too 💗
I really enjoyed Clayborn's Chance series, have the rest of her books borrowed from library & am looking forward to picking them all up in turn 🤩Shall be back to read your review after i read this one - so glad you enjoyed it hun 🥰
Thanks @Aoife 💗 she is truly amazing. I loved the Chance series and Georgie, haven’t read the others yet. I hope you enjoy them all, can’t wait to read your thoughts 🫶
I am excited to get to them when I next fancy some magic free contemporary 🤗
Magic free lol. (I know what you mean but my first thought was that I don’t ever want to read anything that’s magic free 😃)
I guess we could say none are as OTPs are a sort of magic 😉
Amazing review and this is such a gorgous cover!!
Sounds lovely, Dab. I love the author's writing, have read all but two of her books. Awesome review ❤️
loove the review! glad you enjoyed❤️
Thanks @Leonie! I know, I love it too 💕
Thanks @Angelika, I loved Georgie and the Chance of a Lifetime series too, she is really amazing.
It sounds like a very healthy and good relationship, rather than a super swoonworthy one!
@Imme they both had issues but they were mature and communicated, so you’re right 💗
I’m going to buy the book because of this review ❤️🩹
Thanks @Maryam, you can’t go wrong with Kate Clayborn, enjoy! 🫶
Beautiful review, babe! ♡♡
