All the Little Raindrops by Mia Sheridan
5.0
Thoroughly enjoyed this and would thoroughly recommend the audiobook.
Set over an extended time frame, starts with the two MCs finding they’ve been abducted.
Multi POV and extremely tense at times with some difficult thriller/horror content covered - check trigger warnings before reading.
Lots of clever plot points which all come together, but easy to keep up with the narrative.
A tender love story unravels throughout.
Quite a few notable quotes:

Quite a few notable quotes:
She supposed it was odd that they weren’t embarrassed by their nudity, but in some ways, she felt that she’d spent the last however long with him, completely stripped bare. What was naked flesh when a person had seen your soul?
Pg 113
The air around them seemed to have stilled, the background blurring so that only he was clear and crisp. Her sole point of reference.
Pg 138
He needed the solace only she offered. But she also triggered him in a way no one else could.
Pg 152
Noelle had been asked to sacrifice his fingers and his teeth and various other body parts, and she’d refused each time. Ironic how much he felt like he’d lost a limb when he’d woken in an empty bed that day so long ago.
Pg 179
“… I have no idea what it’d be like to go to a movie with her. I don’t know if she likes butter on her popcorn or if she prefers comedies to dramas, but I know that she’s the bravest person I ever met and that she’d march straight into a fire rather than let someone else be burned.”
Pg 185
“I chose the profession because I wanted to help other people find their own closure. I guess that aspect, especially, was appealing to me, considering we never found ours.”
Pg 219
Her daughter was the very air she breathed. She was the living embodiment of what could never be but was. The most beautiful paradox.
Pg 265
They’d seen each other’s souls, and maybe once you’d seen a soul, it belonged to you in some profound way that could be felt but not explained.
Pg 317
