About the Book

I gaze into my fiancé’s eyes as I toast to our love, relieved that tomorrow we’ll be married. After we say ‘I do’, no one from my past will ever be able to find me.

On our wedding day, I wake with a smile. Today I get to marry the love of my life. He may not know everything about me, but Robert and I fit perfectly together. I can’t wait to put on my perfect white gown and walk down the aisle.

In just a few hours, I’ll be his wife. And my secret will be hidden forever.

I turn to wake him up, but his eyes don’t open. There’s blood smeared across the white bed sheets, across his body, across my own trembling hands. My fiancé is dead.

It’s only then that I realize there’s a knife in my hand…

My Review

This is a great book! It’s so engrossing and fast paced. It’s told in two points of view, and if one point of view is giving a little more background, then the other one has the action. So really, there is always something happening in this book. At first you’re left to wander how the second women/POV fits into the story, but once it’s revealed, WOW!!!! That was the biggest twist for me and I didn’t see it coming. I didn’t predict it and my guesses were definitely way off.

There’s also a mental health aspect to this story, which I really appreciated. A character volunteers at a hotline, which I really appreciated it. Yes, someone uses this hotline in a nefarious matter, but explaining the hotline, hearing a few stories of how it was used to help people, that’s what I really enjoyed!

The ending was full of action and suspense. It was a really good ending! It felt a little cliff hangerish with the last line, so I’m wondering if there is going to be more, but otherwise, it was perfect!
