Welcome to my stop on the Finding Tessa blog tour sponsored by Suzy Approved Book Tours! Thank you to Suzy for the invitation!
About the Book:
Jace and Tessa appear to be a young couple in love with nothing to hide. But looks can be deceiving.
When Jace Montgomery comes home late from entertaining clients, he discovers that his wife Tessa is missing. There’s broken glass at the back door. Clumps of her hair. Blood. The cops in their small New Jersey town have him pegged as a suspect, especially after he explodes at a reporter during a press conference. Jace maintains his innocence despite the mounting evidence against him, but when a coworker he’s accused of having an affair with also disappears and a search warrant turns up an illegal gun in Jace’s home, all signs point to him as the culprit. What is he really hiding?Meanwhile, Tessa finally feels safe, having set up her husband to take the fall for her disappearance—and someone close to him is helping her put him away. Breaking her lifelong pattern of bad men is only one hurdle she has to overcome. The other is outrunning her secret past while trying to stay alive, especially when those in her new life aren’t who they appear to be.
Jace’s lies don’t add up and the authorities are closing in. Will Tessa’s old life catch up to her and drag her back to a life of abuse before justice is served?
Finding Tessa is a smart domestic thriller where nothing can be taken at face value, where every twist reveals a deadlier secret than the one before. Fans of Gillian Flynn, Samantha Downing, and incisive, fresh psychological suspense won’t want to miss it.
My Thoughts:
Jace and Tessa are married, and everything is going well until Tessa is missing. Jace finds blood and a crime scene when he comes home from work.
Of course, the cops look at him first, and while Jace is under scrutiny, a coworker he’s rumored to have had an affair with disappears, too.
There’s another point of view here: Tessa’s. She is feeling safe now that she’s run and set up her husband for the crime. She has a secret past she’s trying to leave behind, even beyond what has transpired with Jace.
Is Jace involved? What is happening? Is Tessa good or evil? So many twists and turns! Finding Tessa is a fun one!
If you are looking for a fresh new thriller, this is it. Twists, turns, secrets, lies, unreliable narration, Jaime Lynn Hendricks is a HOT thriller author, and I am so excited to see what she brings us next. Five star thriller alert!
I received a gifted copy.

Five star thriller alert! I like that. It certainly sounds like one of these twisty page-turners, where you constantly have to read “just one more chapter…”. 😊
