A good book, and a fast paced read! Not my favourite but I’m definitely going to pick up this author again!
This a cleverly written fast paced domestic thriller which is told from three points of view and an unknown narrator.
Starting with a hit and run and the phone calls to the emergency services from people with differing accounts, it pulled me straight into the story. The chapters are short and to the point and the characters well drawn. There are plenty of twists and turns to keep you engrossed, and I recommend it to readers of this genre.
With a past and present timeline, the way the book started with the accident grabbed me. To tell you the truth I wasnt overly susprised with the twists so it affected my rating.
Cute story that picks up a few years after Unhoneymooners ends. This is the story of Olive and Ethan's wedding preparation, where her sister Amy is taking on the planning of the island nuptials. It's an audiobook, the narrators are good and the story is a novella that keeps you listening.
A lot of unexpected twists and turns in this story. It definitely kept me interested and intrigued. I did not expect the ending or the relationships that were formed. Definitely recommend this.
Shame on you, Damon Kennedy! This is the story of a man that is completely addicted to women. Damon ends up hit by a car in the middle of traffic on a rainy day. What Damon does not know is that his wife is onto his never ending game of collecting women and he needs to pay.
Told in 4 POV's - wife, girlfriend, therapist and one anonymous person, we learn about Damon's transgressions and how they have impacted each women's life.
This was fast paced with nicely developed characters - I felt bad for all of them but at the same time thought they were all so desperate and naive. Very satisfying ending, you will be guessing all along!
Thank you Netgalley for the ARC of this book. I really struggled with this one!! The premise sounded great but it fell flat. I couldn't relate to the characters and almost didn't finish the book.
It takes most of the book to find out what really is The Truth About the Accident, but Nicole Trope makes the journey so worthwhile in her new psych thriller.
The prologue introduces us to a pivotal character – without letting us know exactly who that is and who is speaking about them. That becomes important later in the book, as chapters from this person are interspersed throughout the plot.
The first chapter is also a grabber, as it consists of calls to 911 following an accident in an intersection during a torrential rainstorm. If you’re paying attention, you’ll notice something striking right from the beginning.
(No spoilers, just pay attention to what the callers are saying).
The rest of the story unfolds from the perspectives of three women: Marla, Sonya, and Athena. Each of them has a tie to the victim of the accident. And each of them has deep secrets – also tied to the victim.
The author does a good job of keeping the reader guessing as to ulterior motives of each, while also building each of the women’s characters. Are they more similar than they (and we as readers) think? Is there something they know that the reader doesn’t?
And that “speaker” in the prologue…is that one of the women or someone else? Not telling.
In time, the twists really start to hit, and the reader realizes how the stories of the three women intertwine. It’s just excellent pacing all around.
One of the things I liked was the authenticity of each of the women. Their attitudes, reasonings, and motivations are organic, and each character is fully realized.
The resolution is a little bit far-fetched, but by that time, the reader is so invested that it doesn’t matter. I actually celebrated that each of the women got their “turn” in the resolution. And the last part? It makes a terrific bookend to the prologue.
I am a huge fan of Nicole Trope. The Truth About the Accident is one of her best, and I look forward to her next psych thriller.
The Truth About the Accident was an interesting read but unfortunately it just didn't keep my attention. By the books description, I was looking for something that was a little more thriller/mystery and less family drama so I ended up not finishing the book. I may end up coming back when I am in the mood for this type of book, but as of right now I am not going to be finishing.
Thank you, Bookouture, for the gifted copy!
I did not finish this one, it was not for me, I couldn't relate to the characters, and just did not care for the story.
If you're a fan of fast paced thrillers with lots of twists, then you should definitely check this one out. Thanks to Netgalley for an ARC of this book!
Wow.........The Truth about the Accident by Nicole Trope was another gripping psychological thriller. I just love reading Nicole's books They always grip from the very beginning till the end. It's a roller coaster read with lots of twists and turns throughout that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat.
This book is Sooooo Good! I ended up reading it to the early hours in the morning.
I Highly recommend this Book and all books by Nicole Trope.
I wanted to like this but I just couldn't get past the first couple of chapters....................................
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
This was such a good book! A page turner for sure. I loved the mystery of who did it and then it all unfolds.
I would totally recommend this book to my family and friends.

I love books about revenge! In this case, it’s about one man, and three vengeful women! Wow!
Damon is a handsome, wealthy, successful business man, married to Marla. They have two children and a fairy tale life, until one fateful day changes everything.
The problem is that Damon is a liar and a philanderer. He has an appetite for beautiful women, and has cheated on Marla for years.
On the fateful day, Damon is the victim of a hit and run accident. He survives, but remains hospitalized in a coma, while the police try to discover whose car hit him.
Three women, the wife, the mistress and the therapist meet together to discuss Damon and his lifestyle.
Throughout the book we wonder who was driving the car that hit Damon, and who will end up with him, if he survives!
Twists abound in the well written thriller!
4 stars from me!
Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC in return for my honest review.
A decent thriller with an interesting storyline. I enjoyed the multiple perspectives from all the women. However, I felt the ending was quite predictable and a bit more mystery and twists and turns would have benefited the story.
I really liked this one! Definitely worth the read for a good, fast-paced novel. I was genuinely shocked at the end!
This was a thriller for the ages! Kept me on the edge of my seat. I love a book that keeps me turning the pages!
Such a great read with a ton of clever twists! This is definitely a domestic thriller I couldn't put down. The story was told in a creative way, and enjoyed reading different POV from engaging characters. Definitely recommend this one!
Nicole Trope knows how to bring it. Domestic thrillers are her best - this ine does not disappoint.
Add in the multiple ways of narration - transcripts, narrators, differing timelines.
All held my attention and drove the plot.
