Honestly, this one fell flat for me. It was pretty predictable and I was able to guess the twist. Also, I felt the storyline was good but not executed well. There were definitely a lot of holes in the story, which made me not enjoy it much.

This is one of my favorite plot setups I’ve come across in a while. What an insane scenario that is just ripe with possibilities. Ultimately I didn’t love the direction the author chose to go. It was a little too similar to many other books in this genre and thus was a bit predictable for me. That said, I read 80 bajillion (hyperbole, what’s that?) thrillers, so for your average reader who does not, I imagine this wouldn’t be as much of an issue

It was a decent book I wasn't super into it but I didn't dislike it. It just didn't stand out it reminds me of the kind of book you pick up at a library book sale or a bargain book store. Fine but not special.

I wanted to love this book and at first, I did. There were unexpected twists that literally had me gasping aloud. However, when I thought more about it, the twists were so shocking because the reader is misled. One of the characters changes completely despite telling parts of the story from that characters point of view.
Overall, I still enjoyed the book and the concept was good, I just wish that I would have been given subtle clues that would come together at the end instead of feeling duped.

While this book seemed to have a lot of promise, it didn’t deliver for me. There were some good twists, but very predictable. The characters were not very likable, which I think left me not caring too much about the outcome. It was fast paced, but pretty unbelievable.

A great thriller from start to finish. I was on the edge of my seat and devoured it in one sitting. Absolutely loved it. It has a hell of a twist.

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Thanks for the ARC. What can I say? I didn't want to put this book down once I started reading it. I did but could not wait to get back to reading it. I loved it. Will recommend!

I received an ARC of this book from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.

So good! Didn’t see any of the multiple twists coming. Binged this one in less than 24 hours.

I've read a few books by this author, and I'm really becoming a fan. I thought the story was gripping, and it had some good twists at the end. Definitely kept you guessing! I can't wait to read more by this author.

LOVED THIS BOOK! I enjoyed the setting, the characters and al the questions that this book constantly threw up and all the answers that eventually come to light by the end. Lots of secrets and stories makes this one a riveting read!

Minka Kent has quickly become one of my favorites. Her writing catches your attention from the very start. This book was no different. I wasn’t sure where the story was going at first, but once it got rolling I was hooked. Great read.

Wow!! What an amazing big book! Took me for a ride. I love love this author. Kept me on the edge of my seat. Definitely a 5 star read for me! Thank you for letting me read this one!

Finished this book in about a day really loved it and the characters was a first by this author but I will be reading more by her

I did not finish this. I had to put it down. I’m sorry. I won’t be able to give a good review. I’m hoping to pick it back up and enjoy it more next time.

I have gave this book three tries in reading, I just can't get into it.It is a very highly rated book and I can't figure out exactly want doesn't hold my attention with it. I am sad to say this is a DNF for me after 15% of the book.

I don’t read many thrillers, but if most others in the genre are as exciting and as full of unexpected twists as this one, I need to branch out! The reader will sympathize with both Lydia and Merritt, and if you’re as naïve as I apparently am, the ending will leave you astonished and ready for a reread to see if you missed any obvious clues.

Thank you netgalley and publisher for opportunity to read this arc and provide an honest review.

Well another book I stayed up too late reading because it was so hard to put down. The flow of the story was quick, the characters and storyline were believable enough and I overall enjoyed the story and the twists! Will continue to read more from this author!

At first I thought this was the typical “steal your life” kind of domestic thriller with a missing, presumed wife came back twist, but I was definitely wrong! The first 75% of the book was that so it drag a little bit, but once the twists started coming, they didn’t stop. I didn’t love the ending, but overall, it was a good book.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

The plot was intriguing and there was so much potential but the execution wasn't well done at all. The twists were so unbelievable that it took the enjoyment out of reading it for me. What a chore to finish.

Thanks to Netgalley for sending me the ARC! I loved it! What a ride! I was so suspicious of Lydia! I read this one quickly and the ending was so good. I rate this book a 4.3
