New Release + Review: Blackout by Olivia Evans

BLACKOUT by Olivia Evans is LIVE!

“This story was so beautiful and well written - a fantastic story of survival, hope, friendship, and love. Highly recommend this one!” ~Christine, Goodreads reviewer


ABOUT THE BOOK
There is a gaping hole in the middle of Lonna's memories of the worst night of her life. Her body told her how it ended, but the details leading up to her lying hurt and sobbing on the bathroom floor have been lost.

How do you move forward when you’re not sure what you have to move on from?

How do you get your life back on track when you don’t know what happened to send it off the rails?

She makes a connection in the unlikeliest of places. Their bond is immediate—their pain similar and, at the same time, vastly different. As they work independently to recover from invisible wounds they are not ready to share with each other, they find their path to healing may leave a fiery trail across the landscape of what used to be their lives.

EXCERPT
Gavin let out a small laugh and kissed the tip of my nose. “That’s also possible. Come on, we better get going.”
“Do we have to?”
“Nope. We can leave right now.”
This time, it was my turn to laugh. “You’re not helping my instinct to flee at all.”
“Let’s go,” Gavin sighed. “Krista will be mad, and we wouldn’t want that. Plus, if we leave now, we won’t get to hear Ashley speak again. Now, that would be a shame.”
“Well, well, well, look at you bringing out the snark. This is new. I like it.” Every day, it seemed like I was discovering a new part, another hidden piece about Gavin, and each one pulled me in a little deeper.
“I like you,” he whispered, tugging on the bill of my hat. “Let’s go.”
With my hand wrapped in his, I let him lead me through the crowd, my heart fluttering with those feelings you got with a first crush. I wished things were as uncomplicated now as they had been then.

Rating ⭐⭐⭐⭐-1/2

Holy shit! This story is unlike any I've read before. 

What's better - the devil you know or the one you don't?


Evans had me holding my breath through each chapter because I kept waiting for the monster to show his face. I was apprehensive because as I'm reading, I'm also playing detective and I didn't like where the clues were leading me. This book had me so apprehensive its not even funny. 

This book is full of potential triggers. If this affects you, this is one that you may want to steer away from. If that's not an issue, then you NEED to read this!
