Summary

Wesley Gates is down on his luck. He's drowning in debt. His demanding career isn't letting up. And, to top it all off, after years of ignoring their failing marriage, his wife has had enough.

Heartbroken and in desperate need of a place to stay while he gives his wife the space she's asked for, Wes is shocked when he runs into a familiar face from his past. As they catch up, Wes can't help feeling grateful to spend time with someone who remembers who he was during their glory days, long before his life fell apart. So, when Elias offers to rent out his spare bedroom, it seems like the answer to all Wes' problems. Wes takes his old friend up on the offer without hesitation.

But soon, Wes realizes moving in with Elias may have been a mistake. Between the wild mood swings, strange occurrences, and total disregard for his new roommate's privacy, Wes begins to wonder if Elias will be his savior or his worst nightmare.

When his wife reveals devastating news that destroys the final bit of shaky ground Wes was standing on, his new roommate may be all he has left.

Maybe that's what Elias wanted in the first place.... Or maybe it's all in Wes' head.

Contains mature themes.

There were parts to the story that dragged on. Instead of building intrigue it built up the frustration over how the writer was drawing the story. It was free so entertaining. The story was good with a great twist and narration, but the prolonged parts and repition almost made me give up.

I really enjoyed this book. The narrator has a slightly monotone style which is perfect for the main characters. It's a great storyline, I highly recommend this book.

It kept me guessing the whole way through.

Took me a few chapters to get into the story line and feel the character in the narrators voice. I felt the frustration of the main character as the story progressed.

Slow start strong finish

Narrator was a bit monotone and was a little off putting. There were a few words that were used twice in the same sentence. That saying, this was still a very good story. I was frustrated at times with the main character. Would still recommend.

Great read
