Tetlow brings alive the complexities of the human mind in this riveting drama.
While the story starts out slow - continue to the end - it becomes apparent why the book is written in the format it is.
Allowing readers into Joan's everyday life, we are able to better understand how her illness went undetected for so long.
Using the medical field as the basis for her books, this author has unlimited topics to pull from

Change of Mind is an engaging story about a young woman Joan, who has a difficult life taking care of her mom who is slowly slipping away in her own world because of dementia and taking care of her young rebellious son. She is working as a receptionist for a medical practice and gets her emotions mixed up in thinking that her boss, doctor Jon Britton, is in love with her. At first as a reader you get to know Joan’s life and Doctor Britton’s life and really get to understand the way they live their lives and it seems like everything is normal. Then as a reader you really get an inside look into the dangerously mixed up way of thinking of Joan’s feelings towards John Britton. Especially at the end of the book you really can feel the tension and suspense and you just don’t want to put this book down. As a reader you feel both sorry for and worried about the main character Joan. Really loved reading this book because of the twists and turns that you didn’t expect. You really get to know the main characters because of how well described they are in the book. A great book to get really into the story and relate to the characters. Highly recommend it!

Change of Mind is the dramatic and riveting story of two people whose lives become dangerously intertwined. John Britton, a general practitioner in a team practice, knows he needs to face and do something about his career and his health. Joan, a receptionist for this medical practice, is a woman whose life is spiraling out of control. She can barely control her young son, her mother's health is rapidly declining and she becomes convinced she and John can have a life together.
There is an air of tension as the well crafted plot slowly unfolds. The reader becomes completely engrossed as the lives of the well developed characters move towards a surprising conclusion.
The author brings to readers a well written novel. Highly recommended.
