Convergence
by Ginny L. Yttrup
| -From Amazon- A psychologist paralyzed by fear. A mother propelled by love. A stalker bent on destruction. Psychology professor Dr. Denilyn Rossi contends that the past is either a shadow that haunts us or a force that propels us. The choice is ours, she tells her students. What she doesn’t tell them is that her own past is a shadow she can’t seem to shake. Fear has immobilized her and is taking a costly toll. Adelia Sanchez, however, has embraced Dr. Rossi’s teaching. She is ready to confront fear and render it powerless—using the trauma of her past to propel her to entrap the man who stalked and brutally attacked her. As Denilyn’s past and Adelia’s present converge at the Kaweah River, a dangerous man bent on destruction threatens them both. Will he uncover the secret Deni and Adelia have fought so hard to protect? ISBN-13: 978-1683227885 The past, present, and future collide... |  This Book received a 3.5 Bark rating.

I think it was the dramatic cover which first caught my attention and after reading the back cover blurb I decided to take a chance on Convergence. You see, Ginny L. Yttrup is a new-to-me author. I'd heard of her before hut that was it.
So, in my opinion there were some real pluses and some minuses in this book. On the plus side, beside the gorgeous cover, of course, is that the suspense is RIVETING, totally edge-of-your-seat-can-barely-breathe stuff. You'll also be kept guessing from the dramatic start to the very end. On the minus end was the simple fact that I found the bouncing between characters and timeframes to be confusing at best. Also some of the final revelations just left me shaking my head and asking "Why, why is this only coming out now?"
There is a lot of romantic suspense out there so it's always a nice change of pace when the suspense, and not romance, is the star of the book. Convergence is one such story. Readers get the chance to delve deep into the characters' psyche instead of being distracted by flirtatious glances and increasing pulse rates.
If you are into psychological suspense or have enjoyed Ginny L. Yttrup's previous books this just might be one for you to check into.
