Her Eyes Underwater: A True-Crime Inspired Romantic Suspense novel by Romona Simon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A riveting true crime novel, Her Eyes Under Water is about a young university student, Julia Strauss. A free spirit at heart, she disregards recent reports of missing people in the Montana wilderness. When she meets Alex Bowman, she is enchanted with the man and they begin to date. Soon thereafter, Alex’s perfect behavior starts to crack, and a cruel, ruthless, and violent man shines through. Will Julia connect the dots to the missing people and Alex in time? Or will her free spirit be snuffed out too soon?
Julia is a smart young lady whose emotions get the better of her. Life seen through rosy red glasses is a true sentiment in this novel, at least until they break. Alex must suffer from multiple personalities, as it seems he does care for Julia immensely, however his penchant for cruelty that is also directed at her is too great of a red flag. This was a well written, well though out book that was gripping from first page to last.
