You’ll Miss Me When I’m Gone by A. R. Torre @alessandratorre4 @sarahbgoer @eleddielo @brilliancepublishing #DeadlyAmbition #YoullMissMeWhenImGone

the setup…
Rachel Redden is worried that husband Jake is losing his interest in her and their marriage so she devises a plan to “wake up” those dormant feelings. She stages their bedroom and bathroom to appear as if she’d been taken and then disappears. But as she waits to be “rescued,” things don’t even come close to going as planned.

the heart of the story…
Be careful what you wish for because Rachel’s marriage is in deeper trouble than she’d imagined. I thought her plan was a little nutty but even I wasn’t prepared for Jake’s reactions. As both reflect on their marriage, I thought she was in big trouble.

the narration…
Sarah Beth Goer and Eddie Lopez both sold me on their characters. They were also great storytellers, pacing this perfectly.

the bottom line…
This was an interesting story that starts in one direction and soon shifts into something darker, pulling me in quickly. I got a strong sense of both characters and was unsure how this would end, though I know what I wanted to happen. This short story reads like a bigger novel. Well done, Rachel.
