Daniel seems like the perfect guy. Brilliant, handsome and a very successful doctor. It's no surprise when Noelle falls hard for him. But then everything is not quite so wonderful. Is Daniel really a control freak? Certainly seems to be. This was such a fun book. I literally gasped out loud more than once! Kept me riveted the whole way through! Thank you so much!

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC in return for an honest review.

Make Me Disappear is a story about a young lady's desperate attempt to escape her controlling boyfriend and the lengths that she will go to to make sure she is safe.

This was a great thriller and I read it in one day. I enjoyed the fact that I was constantly questioning things and wondering what the truth was (which you won't find out until the end).

Definitely recommend.

Engaging and complex. This page turner captivates you from page 1 and holds you in its grip till the last page.
This evocative read dances you through flirting with control thinking it’s love and steps you right into the throes of domestic violence. The fear keeps you on edge throughout. The concept is unique and the deception is deep. The characters are well written and mysterious. I did find the twist at the end to be slightly predictable but it did not affect my enjoyment of the book. A riveting read

A love an early twist because it just tells me there is so much more coming! This was a very fun read. Both main characters are awful and that is one of my favorite troupes of all time. I love a good bonkers read that leaves going "WTF".

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 brilliant stars!

At long last, a 5 star read, and from a debut author too. This book is easy to read with short snappy chapters told from different points of view.

It really keeps you guessing with the twists and turns, and as it’s quite fast paced, you whiz through the chapters.

Thanks to Netgalley for a copy of this book for an honest review.

Hmm...not sure what to write about this one. Interesting concept of having both Noelle and Daniel chapters. Picked the culprit quite early. Some parts were simply unbelievable.

This book was an enjoyable and absorbing read, I really enjoyed the writing style and loved Noelle for her strength and determination. I did guess what was going on quite early in the book, though, but even so I really enjoyed this one.

This Debut was amazing. I could not believe this was a debut.
This story took turns that I did not see coming and man the main twist got me,
I definitely recommend picking this one up

This was so good! Very dark and twisted and kept me guessing right to the end. The characters were really well written and believable. I can't wait for another by this author

This psychological thriller is a real page turner. It is fast paced with plenty of twists and turns that kept me guessing throughout. A great debut book. Looking forward to reading more from this author. Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

Wow what a debut! Impossible to put down full of suspense, keeps you guessing, a real or planned kidnapping? What is going on!!! Loved the short chapters, and the wiring style that kept you questioning everyone

This one sent me on a rollercoaster of emotions: pity, anger, confusion. I was enthralled with how the author, Jessica Payne, made me go back and forth between differing feelings, divided on characters and who I could trust and who I should be rooting for. Domestic thriller to a T.

I also love a book with multiple POV's, so if you're into that, this one checks that off your list.

Make Me Disappear by Jessica Payne

Perfect on paper Daniel has made it clear that Noelle will always be with him and she knows she is stuck until she reads a story of a new trend….prank kidnapping 🫣 Sounds simple enough…pay to be kidnapped and let go, what could go wrong?!

The premise was something new and exciting and the beginning was great but it started dragging and we weren’t getting anywhere. I felt the few sexual comments were not necessary and took away from the tone of the book. The ending felt rushed and not everything tied up. It was a good read and debut book and I will read more from the author in the future.

Noelle has already realized that her anesthesiologist fiance isn't as perfect as he seems. Then she learns that his previous girlfriend disappeared without a trace and begins to plan her own escape. This Kindle Unlimited title is fast paced and twists and turns in all sorts of directions, some more implausible than others. It was a fun read just to see what was going to happen in the end.

This was so binge worthy and for a debut? I could not put it down! The storyline kind of got a bit unbelievable, but still worth the read! Thriller / suspense lovers- you don’t want to miss this!

I was in such a reading slump recently that the thought of even opening this book felt like a chore - but wow, I'm I glad I did. What a brilliant debut novel by Jessica Payne.

Make Me Disappear has been a thrill to read. What a twist.
It is read in first person, by Noelle, a nurse, and her boyfriend Daniel, an anesthesiologist - both working at the same hospital in Seattle.
The relationship is great at the beginning but very quickly turns sour and has Noelle searching for a way out - and boy, she doesn't half find a good one!

I'd love if there was a sequel to this, but equally, I reckon I'll read anything by Jessica Payne from now on.

Thank you to the Publisher and Netgalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Wow 🤩 loved this book 📚, For a debut novel , it kept you gripped from the first page ! When I read the cover of the book I did think , ‘yet another woman kept prisoner in their house by her controlling husband’ but that was so not the case !! An original storyline told from the POV of the two main characters which kept you wanting to read ‘ just one more chapter’ before you went to bed! Will definitely be in the look out for more books by this author

I liked this book! I couldn’t put it down. I liked the premise of this book a lot and also liked that it was set in the Pacific Northwest! Noelle did what she had to do, to get out of her relationship with Daniel and it was a ride!

DNFed. This was hard to read. There were so many instances that I felt like I wanted to punch the main guy (I forgot his name). He was so unlikeable and the way his chapters were narrated were ick. Maybe it's a good writing technique but it felt creepy and it made me uneasy. And the plot made me uneasy as well. But I'll be giving a try on this author's other work.
