Buckle up for a page-turning drama packed with romantic intrigue, suspense, and self-discovery.
Dr. Simon Brust, an uptight professor and rising star in immunology research at Yale, has trouble when it comes to relationships.
During a fall, he smacks his head on pavement and, concussed, meets Alex Argyle. She’s a vivacious, free-spirit who dotes as he heals from his injuries. They discover uncanny compatibilities, a perfect match. But Simon still has feelings for Genevieve, his former, sometimes current, lover.
He’s so busy helping others and researching how cancer hides from the immune system that he can't see what he's hiding from himself. Under pressure from all sides, symptoms of anxiety escalate into crippling panic attacks that interfere with his work performance. Will he meet the arduous standards for tenure and continue his life’s work? Will he finally see the truth?
M. E. Delaney is a psychologist specializing in trauma and anxiety disorders. PLAIN SIGHT is her debut. She is also the author of a children's picture book, Under Mother Tree, and is writing a second novel.
This book is unique because the author is a psychologist, so there were lots of really interesting insights that were woven in, not just with the main character but with supporting characters as well. I appreciated the way the author included slow and subtle signs that Alex and Simon's relationship may be unraveling to help with the build up of suspense and leave the reader guessing about what will happen next. I'm looking forward to seeing what this author comes out with in the future!
