The new thriller from USA Today and #1 Amazon Bestselling Author of The Perfect Marriage and One of Us Is Dead!

You’ve opened up your house and your heart to a total stranger… What could possibly go wrong?

Grace Evans, an overworked New Yorker looking for a total escape from her busy life, books an Airbnb on a ranch in the middle of Wyoming. When she arrives at the idyllic getaway, she’s pleased to find that the owner is a handsome man by the name of Calvin Wells—and he’s eager to introduce her to his easygoing way of life. But there are things Grace discovers that she’s not too pleased about: A lack of cell phone service. A missing woman. And a feeling that something isn’t right with the ranch.

Despite her uneasiness, the two bond and start to fall for one another. However, as her departure date nears, things change for the worse. What began as a playful romance soon turns into a complicated web of lies. Grace grows wary of Calvin as his infatuation for her seems to have morphed into obsession. Calvin fears that Grace is hiding something from him—including her reason for staying at his ranch, to begin with. Vacation flings typically end in heartbreak, but for Grace and Calvin, it’ll be far more destructive.

My Review

Jeneva Rose returns following The Perfect Marriage with her latest domestic suspense thriller, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE COME HERE. A dark and twisted game of cat-and-mouse—who is the prey and predator?

Grace Evans needs an escape from New York and books a week's trip alone to an Airbnb in Wyoming.

Upon arrival, she discovers the host, Calvin Wells, which is easy on the eyes, handsome and sexy. Grace and Calvin spend time together riding horses and doing simple things. They become close.

However, do they know one another? What is each hiding? They each have their own secrets. Which is more dangerous and manipulative?

Grace does not like the lack of cell phone service. A missing woman. And a feeling that something isn't right with the town.

From strange things, animal deaths, darkness, taxidermies, dreams, and warnings from local people—and supporting characters— Grace wonders if she is safe.

As it comes time for her to leave, things get weird, and Grace thinks he is obsessed and will force her to stay. She must escape. Who's zooming whom?

Wicked and twisty, told from dual points of view, dark and sinister, a cautionary tale—do you really know anyone? The author throws a curve with a jaw-dropping evil twist at the end of this romantic suspense thriller.
