The Voice Review...

Title- The Voice

By- Jennifer Anne Davis

Genre- YA Contemporary Romance

Published- January 29th 2013

Published by- Lands Atlantic

During her abduction and assault, Audrey begins to hear a voice. She hopes she's not going crazy, because after what she's experienced, that's the most logical explanation. However, as she begins to listen to the voice, Audrey realizes that someone may be telepathically trying to help her.

Unfortunately, rescue isn't all she needs. In order to leave behind the constant reminders, she flees to her Aunt Kate's house in San Diego, and assumes a new identity. It works until the eighteen-year-old twin boys who live next door threaten to break through the protective walls she's worked so hard to build.

Between Caleb going out of his way to befriend her and Justin avoiding her at all costs, Audrey doesn't know if normalcy will ever find her again. But one thing is certain: When a familiar danger resurfaces, it's the same voice that she turns to -- a voice that is not only real, but a lot closer than she realizes.

Gripping and tastefully told, The Voice is a story of healing, trust, and courage.

Reviewed by Kayla:

This book was wow! I was taken in from the very beginning. It was a hard subject because of what happens in the book. But the way that Audrey deals with things and works through it all is amazing. I couldn’t put this book down. I finished it in a matter of hours. It’s not a long read but it was well worth reading. Audrey is a very strong character and although she doesn’t feel like she is. The voice helps her through the abduction and she feels better when the voice is there. But when she gets rescued she doesn’t hear from the voice anymore. She stays hidden in her room for a long time after the trauma. With a very overprotective mother and family, her aunt offers to have her come stay with her in California. She meets the neighbor boys Caleb and Justin. Caleb is nice and friendly and Justin will barely look at Audrey. There is some suspense in this story and I truly loved it. I don’t think that I would have been able to deal with things the way Audrey had but I think that she comes out of it a better person. And I think that everyone should remember it is always better to talk things out and not hold them in. I would rather be overly open that not at all. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars! I highly recommend this book!!!
