Love You To Death

“Wow, what a wild ride! Christina Dotson gives us a modern Thelma & Louise with the murder and mayhem dialed up to eleven. This is a true-blue thriller that pulls no punches, absolutely madcap and laced with mordant humor.”—Ashley Winstead, USA Today bestselling author of Midnight Is the Darkest Hour“Dotson masterfully paints a portrait of toxic friendship that will leave you wondering how well you can really know your best friend … or yourself.”—Stephanie DeCarolis, USA Today bestselling author of The Perfect Sister“Love You to Death is a ripping good romp of a story. Christina Dotson’s crisp narrative and sharp dialogue imbues her characters Kayla and Zorie with the kind of diabolical resonance that gives Thelma and Louise a real run for their money. Brava!”—Wanda M. Morris, award-winning author of All Her Little Secrets and What You Leave Behind“Love You To Death is a must-read for anyone who loves the movies Thelma & Louise and Zola. The thriller is a quintessential beach read—a story of toxic friendships and literally running from your problems that’ll have you laughing one chapter and yelling the next. In her debut, Christina Dotson has created two unforgettable characters in Kayla and Zorie—and established herself as a writer to watch.”—Kellye Garrett, award-winning author of Missing White Woman“Christina Dotson’s debut combines the surreal dark comedy of Zola with the ride-or-die on-the-run classic Thelma & Louise to create something entirely fresh and exhilarating. The hairpin turns and killer twists of this propulsive bad-girls-gone-worse thriller will have you hanging on for dear life!”—Layne Fargo, author of The Favorites and They Never Learn“Love You to Death is riveting and has a lot of heart. It is about the journey of friendship—the good, bad, and ugly—and of loyalty. Christina Dotson introduces striking characters Zorie and Kayla in their story of discovery, of their girls’ trip gone wild, and the domino effect their choices create—with all of it culminating in a pearl-clutching and unforgettable end. Bravo, Christina Dotson.”—Yasmin Angoe, author of the Nena Knight trilogy and Not What She Seems“A thrilling dark comedy about toxic friendship that had me totally gripped … a wild ride and a brilliant summer page turner!”—Kate Weston, author of You May Now Kill the Bride“Gleefully unhinged… . Dark humor and hints of horror season the madcap, noir-tinged action, with Dotson pushing her Thelma & Louise setup to deliciously absurd extremes. For all the high-stakes action, though, it’s the shifting dynamics of Kayla and Zorie’s thorny relationship that keeps the pages turning. This is criminally good.”—Publishers Weekly
