I have always enjoyed Julianna Keyes romance novels so I was excited that she was branching off a little with a suspenseful romance read (and boy was it good)! I completely devoured All the Missing Pieces in one day!! The storyline was very original with well placed twists—there were several times I was sure I had figured it out, but I was wrong (which I love in suspense novels)! I will absolutely be 1-clicking whatever Julianna Keyes comes out with next!

This is a really great, sexy, thriller of a ride. Apparently, the author is known for romance books (not really my genre). However, this is a fabulous, exciting tale about a woman whose father has been imprisoned for embezzlement and who is trying to get her life back together after much media speculation about her role in his crimes.
In doing so she has become a hermit except for her evening forays to meet strangers where she adapts a different role each time.
This is, until she meets a stranger who seems too good to be true.....

It's difficult to describe how the above premise pulls you in, but, pull you in it does and genuinely doesn't give up until the very last page. The writing is excellent and the characters so well rounded and interesting.

It kept me on my toes with a 'did she / didn't she?" all the way through. I'm not going to say more as I don't want to spoil it, but, I'd highly recommend this book for those who enjoy psychological thrillers - this isn't marketed as one, but, it hit the spot for me.

Thanks so much to Victory Editing Netgalley Co-op and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview and Congratulations to Julianna Keyes - I'm sure this is going to be such a hit!

The two things I've been loving in books for a couple years now are a good thriller and explicitly sexy romance. "All the Missing Pieces" combines both of these things.

The novel is about Reese, a woman not only believed to have killed her brother, but also that she knows about the whereabouts of a fortune her father went to prison for embezzling. In order to ease her pain, Reese meets men for dinner dates and one night stands, pretending she's someone different every time. I loved this part of the story and could totally relate to Reese's wish to be anonymous, exciting, and whoever she wants to be. The sex scenes were also very well written and tasteful, although I wish there was more of that heat.

So, our heroine is in sort of an okay place until she meets a stranger, Chris, who is not who he seems to be.

I loved the thrilling mystery which kept me at the edge of my seat, just as much as the steam of the romance. I really want to read more books like this one, so if anyone has more recommendations for steamy thrillers, please pass them my way because I don't think there are enough of them out there.
