About the Book
Can I really trust the man I married?
I take a sip of coffee as I plan my day. My surgeon husband, Cole, slept at work last night, so I had to get the kids ready on my own, again. I can’t complain, though, I’ve loved him ever since we met, long before he became a famous surgeon and the papers started calling him the pride of the hospital.
Our latest family photo hangs on the kitchen wall and I remember that day so clearly. Cole screamed at me over nothing, then apologised saying he was stressed at work. My heart pounded with fear, but I plastered a smile on my face for the sake of my children.
Now, as my phone buzzes on the glossy white kitchen island, I read the message from a withheld number, and nothing could have prepared me for what it says. Your husband is planning to kill you…
You might think you know what I do next, but you’ll be wrong, because Cole isn’t the most dangerous person in this family…
My Review
I really enjoy Browne’s psychological thrillers. I’m drawn in right from the start, and then kept interested in the book all throughout. Browne gives us a slower build up, and then all of a sudden the pedal gets pushed down and the story and the action take off and high speed!
This book is filled with secrets, lies, and deception. Did I suspect who was behind the messages that Maddie was receiving? Yes, and I was right. But there was a few other twists and turns that I did NOT see coming at all. So while I was able to guess one of the twists, not being able to guess them all means that I was surprised and shocked, which is always a great thing when I read a thriller book.
I enjoyed that we got different perspectives of the characters in the book, and the fact that the book stayed in the present. It really all helped with how nicely the book flowed. It made it so easy to follow. Oh, and THAT ENDING!!!! What an ending!!! I can’t wait to read another book by this author, because I really do enjoy them!
