A quiet weekend in the wilderness, just the two of them. How romantic. But new love turns to terror in a suspenseful short story from the New York Times bestselling author of The Other Black Girl.

When Ama’s straitlaced boyfriend, Nathan, invites her to his secluded upstate New York cabin for the weekend, she can’t say no. It’s a chance for them to escape the city’s distractions, share intimate secrets, and take their relationship to a deeper level. By day, it feels like the perfect love story. But when Ama is awakened by strange events, she starts to wonder if she really wants to know everything about Nathan.

REVIEW

I was left unfulfilled by the second offering in the Getaway Collection. His Happy Place did not feel like a complete story and  was a bit confusing at times. I’m really not sure of what I read. I was looking for a quick read and I was able to read this under 45 minutes. The plot had promise, just didn’t work for me.
