Review: Convergence by Ginny L. Yttrup

About the Book
A psychologist paralyzed by fear.

A mother propelled by love.

A stalker bent on destruction.


Psychology professor Dr. Denilyn Rossi contends that the past is either a shadow that haunts us or a force that propels us. The choice is ours, she tells her students. What she doesn’t tell them is that her own past is a shadow she can’t seem to shake. Fear has immobilized her and is taking a costly toll.

Adelia Sanchez, however, has embraced Dr. Rossi’s teaching. She is ready to confront fear and render it powerless—using the trauma of her past to propel her to entrap the man who stalked and brutally attacked her.

As Denilyn’s past and Adelia’s present converge at the Kaweah River, a dangerous man bent on destruction threatens them both. Will he uncover the secret Deni and Adelia have fought so hard to protect?


My Thoughts

What an exciting read! This story had my complete and full attention from beginning to end. The nail-biting suspense had my heart pounding and anxiety skyrocketing. The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat. And then came a mind-blowing revelation that left me stunned. I had to set my Kindle down for a little while to digest it all and when I picked it back up I was turning the pages even faster than before. It was a brilliant suspense!

Following Denilyn and Adelia, it goes back and forth between the two POVs and the past and present. I really had to pay attention to the dates at the top of the chapters so I wouldn't get confused where I was or who I was with. In the beginning, I did find myself enjoying one of the POVs more than the other.

This was my first time reading a book by this author and it certainly won't be the last. It was an incredible multi-layered suspense that I'm going to be thinking about for a long time. I highly recommend!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.
