Description

She changed her name. She buried her past. But someone still sees who she really is.

Julia lives a quiet life in Los Angeles, keeping to herself and doing her best to go unnoticed. She knows how to disappear without leaving town—how to blend in, stay polite, and keep her secrets buried where no one will find them. Because Julia isn’t who she says she is. Not entirely.

Then she meets Sebastian. Charming, steady, and disarmingly kind, he’s everything she’s spent years avoiding. But when he claims they’ve met before—when she was someone else—Julia’s carefully constructed world starts to crack.

Soon, strange things begin to happen: a familiar face in a crowd, a note that wasn’t there before, a voice from a life she’s tried to forget. And when pieces of her past start surfacing, Julia begins to question if she’s being watched—or if she’s losing her grip.

Because the danger isn't just in what she's running from. It’s in the lies she’s still telling.

In this addictive psychological thriller, Never in the Mirror explores the chilling price of reinvention, the weight of buried secrets, and what happens when the life you stole starts slipping through your fingers. Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Lisa Jewell, and Jeneva Rose, this twisty tale will keep you guessing until the final page.

Never in the Mirror follows the stories of Julia and Lanie through two alternating POVs and timelines through an evocative narrative that is incredibly cinematographical. I pictured myself drivig around the LA canyons with Lanie, walking around Cabo San Lucas with Sebastian, talking to Marilyn about... well, you'll have to read this book to find out!

An absolutely page-turner, Delancey Stewart has delivered a masterpiece!

Julia has secrets. her name isn't her own, the place where she lives is not her hometown and when she meets Sebastian everything she has tried to hide seems to unravel piece by piece.

This is one of those WOW books. It is gripping and intense and brilliant.

I loved the authors storytelling and how Julias life came apart. I found myself trying to tell her to open her eyes.

I loved this..
