Same Time, Same Place
by David Barnett
A slow-burn and character-driven novel featuring two deeply flawed characters who are as different as night and day!
Nate Garvey and Daisy Dukes are security guards working at a museum on different shifts. They only basically interact with each other for five minutes each day during their handovers. When things start to disappear and then re-appear at the museum, they set it upon themselves to investigate. Soon, they discover the unexpected including the things they have in common.
A caveat, this is not a Night at the Museum-esque light-hearted read. I do have a penchant for romances that tackle heavier topics such as domestic abuse, depression and alcoholism and this book did not hold back on these. It gave an insight on their lasting effects on people long after they have stopped. Nate and Daisy both had difficult childhoods with a string of baggages and it's refreshing to read them opening up to each other, developing a relationship from merely co-workers to something more.
An overall satisfying and heartwarming read with dual POV.
Thank you so much to Sourcebooks Landmark, NetGalley and the author for my copy. All opinions are honest and my own.
