Wow wow wow wow!! When Missy Johnson gave me this book to read I had no idea what it was about. I hadn't read anything written by her before either. I read this book in 1 day. That's not a knock on the book either! I was just not feeling good and got to lay in bed and read. I couldn't stop either.This book is about Emma Mancelli, a 20 year-old shut in who suffers from agoraphobia brought on my severe childhood trauma. It's awful what happened to her and what she had to suffer through.  Her relationship with her parents is strained. She has 2 best friends but no other support other than het psychiatrist.  That changes when she starts conversing with her college professor Simon Anderson via email. It starts out innocently, but ends up as something that could change both of their lives forever.I really enjoyed this book and Missy Johnson's writing style. She is from Australia, so some of the jargon & spelling is different but I didn't mind a bit. I laughed, gasped, sat on the edge of my seat and experienced all kinds of other emotions while reading this book. There is sex in this book so don't read it if you are a prude!  There were a lot of twists and turns, some I saw coming and some I did not.  I cannot wait for Book 2, especially with the bombshell that was dropped at the end of Book 1. I will definitely be adding this author to my Favorites!
