Single mom Amy Knoxx started a business pretending to be a girlfriend, fiancée, or wife to help make ends meet. But when Nolan, a wealthy and unstable client, hires her, things quickly spiral out of control. A stalker lurks in the shadows, and when Amy finds a body in her shed, she realizes she’s in deeper than she ever imagined. As Amy and Jordan, a client with secrets of his own, try to unravel the danger, the stakes soar when her son, Sawyer, is kidnapped. But Nolan isn’t the only one obsessed with her. Someone else has been watching. The question is… who?

I want to thank Jessica Lynn Sorenson and BookSirens for this advanced reader copy. All opinions are my own.

From the very first page, Keeping You Close had me hooked. Jessica Lynn Sorenson crafts a thriller that doesn’t just keep you guessing, it keeps you wrong. Every time I thought I had figured it out, another twist slammed the door on my theory. The suspense is relentless, the stakes keep rising, and just when you think it can’t get any worse… it does.

One of my favorite aspects of this book was the nod to other authors like Elisa D. Daniels, Mark Jenkins, Nadija Mujagic, and Jennifer Hartmann. It felt like a little inside joke for readers who love dark, twisty thrillers.

I also loved the multiple POVs, which added depth to the story, letting us see different sides of the chaos unfolding. Amy’s desperation, Jordan’s mystery, and Nolan’s unsettling presence all played perfectly together. The short chapters made it impossible to put down, and the ending? Let’s just say I need book two ASAP.

If you love authors like Freida McFadden, Kiersten Modglin, or Jennifer Hartmann, you’ll be obsessed with Jessica Lynn Sorenson’s writing.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – A gripping, fast-paced thriller that kept me on edge!
