[Dianne · Rating 5 out of 5]

In spite of Jude Warner’s job, years of training, the psychologist and empath fell for a woman he shouldn’t have, once years before and again, when Fate threw them together, only to rip them apart one more time. When Sara left him, he plummeted down a rabbit hole of despair he had often seen in his patients. Would he ever find happiness again?

Now the dark secrets of one patient could threaten more than just his happiness. It could mean his life, because he knows more than his villainous patient thinks he can trust him with when suddenly, Jude goes missing.

The only way to save him could be to expose their affair, but can Sara risk all she has to save the man she considers her soul mate?

M.L. Carrington’s IN SEARCH OF JUDE is a tale of moral and emotional dilemmas, life and death situations, paranoia and the façade of untouchable power as lives hang in the balance.

Edgy and often unsettling, regardless of one’s feelings regarding infidelity, this taut and gripping thriller will have readers on the edge of their seats, hearts in their throats to the very end, an ending that will leave readers deep in thought days after.

I received a complimentary ARC edition from M.L. Carrington!

M. L. Carrington skillfully keeps you wanting more as the search to find Jude unfolds. It is one of those books that you don’t want to put down and you can’t wait to find out what happens next.

This was okay but not amazing. I wish more had been done with the whole empath part, as this was a really interesting idea.
