It’s well documented that Sheryl Browne writes brilliant psychological thrillers based around marriages and families, in ‘The Marriage Trap’ her 4th book I have read this continues as we find ourselves quickly emerged in a marriage break up at the start of the book, it is a VERY powerful and emotive start indeed and sets the scene for what’s to come....and what is to come is why Karla and Jason have reached
this point and why although neither of them want it they have been left with no choice..
You are then taken back 3 months and in detail, clear, concise and engaging the story is explained by different members of the family, there are many reasons why the marriage has ended, to mention any would ruin the book BUT you are teased as to some of the reasons and then WHAM a massive one, that I never saw coming is suddenly there and changes everything!
The book continues as it started, emotive and powerful as you really feel the hurt and anguish these people are going through and I really felt I was there with them experiencing it
There’s a knockout twist at the end, very clever and again didn’t even contemplate it
The characters are as always so well described, physically and emotionally and the style of writing is imo flawless
A book that will stay with me and situations that you hope you never find yourself in
The author writes with real insight re families and marriage and I can only say ‘read it’ you will not be disappointed
10/10 5 Stars

Thank you to NetGalley, Sheryl Browne and Bookouture for an Arc of the marriage trap. First I was excited because I love all thriller books that have to do with marriage gone bad and second I really enjoyed Sheryl's book the babysitter so getting the chance to read an advance copy of this was so exciting. Let me tell you I was very pleased with this book.
Karla watches her husband Jason pack up his clothes and belongings after telling her he is in love with someone else. As he packs up Karla remembers when they were happy before she knew what she knows now but no one knows what Karla will do next only she knows!
This book was exciting and like a roller coaster ride I never wanted to get off of. Another great psychological thriller from Sheryl Brown. There is so much I want to say but I can't say much without giving anything about Karla away. This is a must read thrill!
