I really did like this but not as much as I thought I was going to. This is a psychological thriller about an obsessive, possessive guy who can’t get over his high school girlfriend Callie who is a literary agent and he’s a writer. Callie’s fiance cheated on her with his secretary but to Callie something seems off and she gets angry so she goes and has romantic connections with Bryan who is her past boyfriend who’s obsessed with her but it does show until later. I was wanting more to this, more thrills and stuff but it was still fun and fast paced with a lot going on. I really liked the ending too, I couldn’t stand how possessive and aggressive/controlling Bryan was.
