Ripped from the headlines and from the heart, Before I Let You Go is an unforgettable novel that will amaze and startle you with its impact and insight.” —Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author of The Bookshop at Water’s End“Before I Let You Go is a heartbreaking book about an impossible decision. Kelly Rimmer writes with wisdom and compassion about the relationships between sisters, mother and daughter….

But will the journey heal Annie, or lead her down a darker path?Don’t miss Kelly Rimmer’s newest novel, The Paris Agent, where a family’s innocent search for answers brings a long-forgotten, twenty-five-year-old mystery featuring two female SOE operatives comes to light!

"Loved this book. Couldn’t put it down."

"This was a difficult read. It was well written, told a great story, but it takes you inside the emotional roller-coaster and exhaustion of loving your manipulator. It could be slightly triggering for someone who has been emotionally abused with guilt and threats of abandonment. Could be an eye opener to someone who needs understanding on why we love and strive to help those that continue to hurt us and manipulate us. "
"Very good book about family and addiction. "

"I’ve read a few books by Kelly. The Things we Cannot say was wonderful as well. I read a variety of genres. I’m currently reading Madly, Deeply the diaries of Alan Rickman"

"I really enjoyed this book, and also one of Kelly Rimmer’s other books, ‘Me Without You’, both great reads, but also sad, I found myself thinking about the characters weeks after (accepting that there’s not always a happy ending). I also read ‘Then She Was Gone’, ‘Cross Her Heart’, and ‘The Silent Patient’. I have been into psychological thrillers lately.😊"
