"Good book! Didn’t really like the ending. It was like oh that’s it? "

"Who does Sara think she is??!? this woman! lol <br/>I devoured this book, twisty and just the right amount of crazy. After the Death of her Husband Cole, Jennifer finds Sara his girlfriend/Lover at her door. Sara confronts Jennifer and reveals her baby fathered by Cole! WOWZA!!! Jennifer is shell shocked by all the new developments and to her horror Sara owns the Home Jennifer and her 2 Children are living in WTF?!? This was so entertaining! Really enjoyed this book and had me guessing right till the very end. So many surprises unravel. I was so mad with this situation and angry with Sara the whole way through! The Audacity of this Woman! LOL soo much drama! Light read but so packed with thrills! Great read! 5⭐️<br/><br/>Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read this copy in return for my honest opinion! <br/><br/>Release date: October 27, 2022"

"This was a quick and pretty decent psychological thriller. It wasn't anything unexpected, so it's better for people who are starting out with the genre instead of those who are immersed in it. This is not a bad thing at all because we need books that fall into both categories. <br/><br/>It was a bit of a slow burn for me...there wasn't much action until after the first 100 pages, but I tore through it after that to find out what was going to happen. There isn't really a protagonist in this book, and all the characters are ****** people (this is a plus for me haha). <br/><br/>My copy of this book was an advance reader's uncorrected edition, so this book will be even better when it's released. Look for it in January 2018 for a quick psychological thriller that will be perfect for a weekend with a bottle(s) of wine! Thank you to the publisher for my copy!"

"I’m pretty sure Cherry meets the definition of a psychopath. Just... holy crap. Not that Laura was an angel but at least she had some emotions."

"It was a good story until it became unrealistic at the end. Disappointed with the ending. Could’ve gone a completely different way and I would have enjoyed it more. It was decent. I listened to the audio version. "
