Unfortunately I found this book to be a hard one to get through. It was very slow paced and didn't really have much going on to hold my attention. Well written but not particularly engaging.

Excellent storyline from an author I was not familiar with previously. I am looking forward to reading more of her work, highly recommended!

This book has an amazing opening scene. The story is told over a dual timeline. I didn’t like either of the main female characters. They were well developed though. This is y well written

I found the Woman on the Bridge to be an enjoyable thriller overall.
Charlotte, who has been betrayed by her best friend meets Maggie on a bridge and the two women form an immediate friendship.
This is a fairly slow paced novel and I wasn’t completely engaged. There are a few good twists and turns however, and I was intrigued by the relationship between Charlotte and Maggie while at times feeling protective of Charlotte.
3.5 stars
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this digital ARC.

On a cold dark night Charlotte spots a woman on a bridge in her wedding dress about to jump. She goes over and persuades the woman (Maggie) to come into the warmth of her car.

Maggie reveals that she is trying to escape a man that keeps harassing her and has ruined her wedding day. Charlotte takes her to her place where she will be safe. The two women have an immediate bond declaring to protect each other.

The alarm bells are already starting to ring for me!! Is Maggie the best friend Charlotte has always dreamed about or the nightmare she never saw coming.

A great read that had me well and truly hooked.

Thank you to Netgalley fir my copy in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you Orion Publishing and NetGalley for another epic thriller from Holly.

Holly is on my list of favourite authors and I have been reading her books for years, and she never fails to disappoint.

Again a fast moving brilliantly written novel which keeps you guessing.

More please now!!

Holly Seddon has been a favorite author since I devoured her debut novel, and her books continue to be creative mysteries with interesting characters that draw me in immediately. This story in particular built suspense slowly and expertly and the plot took turns I wasn’t expecting but thought were excellent choices.

This is a book I truly wish I could read for the first time all over again. I’m in complete awe and fangirl mode at how utterly fantastic this book is.

The Woman on the Bridge is a gripping, twisty thriller that will keep readers hooked from start to finish. The plot is fast-paced and will leave readers breathless. The characters are well-developed. Highly recommended! Be sure to check out The Woman on the Bridge today.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me this book.

I really enjoyed the concept of this novel and found it very pleasing to read. It was a little bit of a slow burn for me but once the pace picked up it was a book I felt that I could no put down

I enjoyed this book, it was easy to read and held my attention. I will be reading more from this author :)

This book has plenty of twists and turns
Which will keep you hooked
It will keep you guessing as what’s going to happen next
Thanks NetGalley

Charlotte appears to be an over privileged woman who’s parents deaths has left her with money and a Tesla. Who’d have thought that driving a Tesla could get you into so much trouble with a woman on a bridge. Bring in Maggie the runaway bride. Together they form a friendship and their meeting changes the future for them both.
I could not put this book down reading in to the early hours. Both characters you can’t help but love. I can see this being made into a TV drama. But whatever you do never stop for a runaway bride on a bridge.

I have enjoyed some of Holly Seddon’s previous books so this one was an easy choice.

Charlotte Wildewood has had a bad day after a bitter row with her best friend, Anne. She is driving around trying to calm herself down and spot’s a woman, Maggie, on a bridge in a wedding dress looking like she is about to jump. She manages to get her off the bridge and they strike up an unlikely friendship. Maggie explains her ex-boss who has been harassing her has managed to mess up her wedding by objecting to the nuptials, saying they had been having an affair and her fiancé believed him and called everything off. They are both distraught and wallow in their sorrows together, trying to help one another.

Things get messy and begin to go downhill. Maggie isn’t all that she seems and Charlotte has bigger issues than she thought.

I found this to be quite a slow read, it was interesting and I wanted to find out what happened next and follow to the end. I would like to think that most people wouldn’t be like Maggie and that people wouldn’t be as trusting as Charlotte but I know that’s not the case, just read the newspaper occasionally and you will see.

I found Charlotte to be incredibly immature for someone her age, I can see why after she has been so well protected by her parents growing up, but she needs to take some responsibility for herself, she is a fully fledged adult by this point. However, at the point of meeting Maggie she is clearly vulnerable after her parents’ deaths, learning how to run her father’s business for the first time and reeling after a fall out with her one time best friend, Anne who has accused her of dodgy dealings in her business.

Maggie is also vulnerable, but her tale is very different, she is unlpved and trapped in a difficult situation. Its partly of her own doing but you also begin to see the reasons why and how some small life choices can turn into much larger ones that you didn’t realise would happen.

The two storylines intertwine to create this story of trust, of stranger danger and to look at what is going on around you and being aware of things. If charlotte had listened and check things for herself she would have found herself in a very different situation and whole lives of others would be different.

Overall, I enjoyed the woman on the bridge, the title matched really well and there are lots of twists and turns. I felt it help my interest well but it wasn’t a fast-paced rollercoaster ride that I had hoped for.

This was a bit of a slow read for me, two women brought together in shocking circumstances, where one is going to jump off a bridge but is stopped by the other. The women swap stories and become closer, sharing confidences and helping one another plot revenge. I didnt really have much interest in either character Im afraid

I have read and enjoyed all of Holly Seddon’s previous books but this one blows them all out of the water!!

There are two main female leads in this novel, Charlotte and Maggie. Charlotte is feeling lonely and betrayed by her best friend Anne who has accused her of dodgy dealings in her family’s antiques business. Maggie is a runaway bride, rejected by her family and stalked by the man who ruined her wedding day. Maggie is standing on a bridge seemingly about to jump when Charlotte spots her and manages to talk her down, offering her refuge overnight. The women immediately hit it off and seem to develop an instant bond declaring to protect each other. I felt uneasy at this fast friendship; Charlotte seems vulnerable, orphaned as an adult and reeling from her fall out with Anne. Maggie was super intense and while coming across as weak/broken to Charlotte I could tell there was cunning and desperation in her. Events soon escalate beyond anything you could imagine – Charlotte should really have remembered that old phrase Stranger Danger!

The story is told from multiple points of view and timelines giving you an insight into why each character behave as they do. Believe me when I say you still won’t predict the twists and turns this book contains.

A five star read!

Charlotte Wildewood has had a bad day & after a bitter row with Anne- once her best friend, she drives home like a maniac. She spots a woman sitting on a bridge, dressed in a wedding dress & looking ready to jump. She stops the car & after a scary moment when it looks like both of them are going to end up in the river Charlotte takes the 'bride' home. Maggie explains that her creepy ex- boss had disrupted her wedding, showing explicit pictures of her. The events on the bridge forges an intense friendship between them that is never going to end well.

I have a mixed relationship with Holly Seddon's books. Some I've loved & some I have been disappointed with. Sadly this one was of the disappointing variety! I like to think most people would stop to help someone in Maggie's position but not to take them in like a stray cat! Charlotte came across & terribly immature & clueless. I won't go into to ending but overall I was left unsatisfied. Thanks to Netgalley & the publisher for letting me read & review this book.

Such a great read pulls u into the plot from first chapter wonderful character you can relate to your in the plot with them I enjoy her writting style so easy to read I read in a day a wonderful book I recommend to you all

I'm not for sure if it was the formatting or what but this book was really hard to get through. I would read some and think, what did I just read? It's also kind of slow in the beginning too. I may try to read it again at some point.

Thank you Netgalley for sending me this for my honest review.

This book left me feeling... unsure? I didn't find the plot realistic - although is that the point? It's completely mental, and some aspects seemed too convenient, rather than believable.

I enjoyed learning about the characters, and the way the author wrote about them was fantastic - the author made me feel things towards them (not always positively).

I did enjoy the book, but just was expecting a little more from it.
