About this audiobook
One moment will change their lives forever…
Competitive skier Mindy Wright is a superstar in the making until a spectacular downhill crash threatens not just her racing career but her life. During surgery, doctors discover she’s suffering from a severe form of leukemia, and a stem cell transplant is her only hope. But when her parents are tested, a frightening truth emerges. Mindy is not their daughter.
Who knows the answers?
The race to save Mindy’s life means unraveling years of lies. Was she accidentally switched at birth or is there something more sinister at play? The search for the truth will tear a family apart…and someone is going to deadly extremes to protect the family’s deepest secrets.
With vivid movement through time, Tear Me Apart examines the impact layer after layer of lies and betrayal has on two families, the secrets they guard, and the desperate fight to hide the darkness within.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I am very glad I didn’t spend good money on buying this book outright, as I was thinking of doing! What a convoluted mess of a story, many parts of which didn’t even make any sense! How could it have gotten so many of those great reviews I’ve seen posted elsewhere?! Beats me! Although I did listen all the way through to the end, ultimately I would describe it as a complete waste of time!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Fantastic story! I could not put it down! Deeply engaging characters and very suspenseful.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I loved this thriller! Also have been a fan of Ellison’s books for years but I particularly enjoyed this tale of family secrets. The characters are so well done—you immediately fall in love with the ski prodigy daughter and care about what’s going to happen next. Add to that a plot full of unexpected twists and turns, and this is a perfect page-turner. Definitely a great way to spend the weekend!
Mindy Wright skis competitively, and she is on the verge of a breakout when she suffers a horrific crash. She sustains not just life-changing, but also life-threatening, injuries. Shockingly, her doctors find she has leukemia while she is undergoing surgery.
When a stem cell transplant is what she needs to survive, both her parents receive routine screening. Neither is a match...and neither parent is biologically related to Mindy!
Time is of the essence to save Mindy’s life, but in order to find a match, all the years of lies will have to be unfurled one at a time. Which parent knows the truth? And which one will take it too far to protect Mindy and the harbored secrets?
Once Mindy is diagnosed with leukemia Tear Me Apart was off to the races with all the twists and turns. I did not find the twists overly shocking, but just enough to keep the tension mounting, layer upon added layer. When the pacing was on in this longer than average book, it was ON, and that made the time “commitment” more than worth it.
Tear Me Apart encompasses family drama laden with secrets, while also addressing topics of mental illness, missing children, and competitive skiing. How they gel together is a captivating roller coaster ride of a read.
what a tangled web lies this woman has waved and the killings. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great narration. Very suspenseful but not crazy scary. I really enjoyed this as an audiobook. Kept my attention and had me guessing

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I'll listen to this book again. I really enjoyed every minute. Thank you for this full suspense thriller... Your my best writer by far.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book is different from others as it is told through the voices of many characters, but you can track the characters with good storyline development. It is a multidimensional story with realistic characters. It has a slow start due to the needed character development. Once started, you will not want to put this book down. I recommend this book.
