Building It Up
It was supposed to be the start of their lives, not the end.
After a tragic accident as teenagers, Jensen Owens and Autumn Miller found themselves miles apart but fate would soon have other ideas. Jensen returns to the place he ran away from, but he is not the man he once was. He struggles with something that no one can see, a secret that could forever take him under.
Autumn Miller was at a crossroads in her life. She had long since faced the past, or so she thought. That is until Jensen comes back. As their lives begin to intertwine, something, or someone, comes back from the past. Someone who should no longer be there.
Jensen and Autumn will be faced with a hard decision. They each might find, that sometimes, you have to go back in order to move forward.

This is one of the most honest and raw books I have ever read.
One horrific accident from their teenage years, shapes the lives of Autumn and Jensen for the next 10 years.
A journey of how different people cope with tragedy, which had me absolutely sobbing towards the end of the book.
Absolutely fantastic book - have never read a book like this before but I loved every second.
Thankyou netgalley for giving me the chance to read something I never normally would go for.

As children, Autumn, Jensen and Jake were the 3 musketeers and did everything together. One summer day at the lake as teenagers changed that. They got drunk and a tragic accident took Jake’s life. Jensen couldn’t handle the regret of that day and left town, Autumn stayed and rebuilt her life.
10 years later, Jensen is back and trying to escape the demons of that day. He drinks to put the memories out of his mind and move forward. Autumn is there to help him pick up the pieces and move forward from what happened. They both see Jake in their dreams and struggle with what happened. Is Autumn’s love and friendship enough to help Jensen get over things? Will she get through to him?
This story will take you through the journey as Jensen overcomes the loss of a friend from a tragic accident, a friend that still haunts him as he tries to move on. He returns home 10 years later to those he left behind and tries to pick up the pieces. The story is told back and forth from Autumn and Jensens perspective. This book is labeled as a mystery/thriller novel and is different than most others I’ve read of that genre (my favorite). I could not stop reading to see what happens and read this book in a day.
5/5 would recommend reading this book from Katt Rose

August ran as fast as she could, but…….. she felt Jake died because of her. She has been running ever since trying to outrun the feeling deep in her chest.
After what happened on the day at the lake it had caused so much pain of past trauma that it re-shaped both August and Jensen’s relationships.
Three fates came together once again when Jake returned. The life they buried, wouldn’t stay silent and August and Jensen questioned everything they thought they knew.
I very much enjoyed the story

Coping with traumatic events and feelings of guilt is a very personal thing and everybody tries to cope in their own way. Very often this way includes addition and suppression. This novel shows the devastating effect.
I really liked the first 70-80% of the story. What I did not like is their way out. I don't want to give spoilers, but being led and getting help from the dead is not what I see as working through the trauma.
