The Other Gloria by L.A. Villafane
4.0

This was a very interesting psychological thriller.
Gloria, the main character suffers from dissociative disorder. In the new year of 2019, Gloria goes through something traumatic that catapults her back to 2003 and back to her abusive ex-instead of being safe with hey fiancee Rick.
The way this book used the year of 2003 as the "after" and the 2017-19 years as the "before" was sent I have ever encountered before and I kind of liked it.
Gloria needs to figure out what is happening and what choices she needs to make in her "new" realities. She does all she can for her 2 daughters. She is actually a very strong person once she decides to leave her first husband, in each senario! I adored her 2 daughters. I like Rick in both timelines.
