Freida McFadden has done it again! Hooked me with the first few pages of The Boyfriend. Sydney is just like any other single 30 something woman in NYC, looking for her Mr. Right. Tired of dating losers online Sydney resigns herself to just be single.
Coming home from a terrible date, Sydney and Toms paths cross. Tom is everything Sydney is looking for, and more, or is he?!
Just when I thought I had it figured out, Freida threw in a couple twists and I never saw the ending coming! I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
I was fortunate to receive this as an ARC.

Wow! I thought I knew where this story was going but I was wrong. Freida always has multiple twists in her books. This book had multiple POVs and so many characters. The character dynamics and suspense will keep you wanting more.
Please read the Trigger Warnings(I will share a couple): obsession and domestic abuse)
Wow! One of my favorite Freida McFadden books! I really enjoyed this book & the time jumps. Sydney got annoying on occasion, but McFadden kept me guessing most of the way through the book.
Ms. Freida you did it again! The whole story was very interesting and you would want to keep reading chapter after chapter to find all the answers to the questions going all in your head. You think you figured it out and try to put the pieces together until once again you were wrong. 10 out 10, keep them coming Ms. Freida!
By far my favorite Freida McFadden book!! I was completely lost in a good way. It was not predictable at all. The characters, the back and forth in the timeline, all of it was perfectly executed. I don’t even want to give a summary for fear of giving away a clue. So good. Just read it already!
Thank you Freida and net galley for the copy of the boyfriend.
I am a huge Freida reader and this is one of her bests! I need a sequel!
I was drawn in from the first page. Sydney and her friends are using a popular dating app to meet guys. But is it safe? When one of them is murdered Sydney is determined to find out who did it. If you're like me then you will absolutely think you have it figured out. Even though I was thoroughly enjoying the book I was patting myself on the back because I knew who would be revealed as the killer. I was SO wrong!! I can really see this book having a sequel and I really hope it does. I see more in Sydney's future.
It had a good twist that I didn't see coming because I was distracted with my own theories.
SPOILER
I thought that Tom was actually Slug, and that Slug stole his identity OR that Slug was Randy. I was wrong. I didn't like being wrong, but I liked the twist. However, I didn't like the ending. I honestly expected more of Tom.
Thrilling, chilling, whodunit, with twists and turns you do not see coming. And I mean you DO NOT see coming! Freida will keep you on the literal edge of your seat. Get ready for a wild ride!
This one was an ARC from @fmcfaddenauthor and @poisonedpenpress I gave this one 4⭐️I guessed one of the twists but the other one I didn’t see at all. I tried really hard this whole book to “think like Freida” and I still couldn’t guess it all! This one was really good. Would definitely recommend
Freida did it again! If you think you know what is going to happen you probably do not! I love her books because they are easy to read, they keep you guessing, and I can usually finish them in one or two sittings. She does not disappoint!
Thank you Netgalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the digital ARC!
Freida McFadden delivers again with "The Boyfriend"! This thriller is a page-turner that I couldn't put down. Perfect if you need a reason to glue yourself to a comfy chair for the evening. The plot twists are classic McFadden – you'll be guessing until the very end. ( You don't have it figured out ) If you like suspense and a fast-paced story, "The Boyfriend" is a great choice!
Wow.. first off, thank you NetGalley for an advanced readers copy and the opportunity to read this book before it’s released!
I read this book in one day, it was THAT good. I couldn’t put it down. The infamous Freida “twist” in The Boyfriend had my jaw on the floor! I didn’t see it coming. It was incredibly engaging and had me guessing until the very end. I found myself attached to the characters, excited to know how their story would end. Freida has done it again, of course. Dare I say, one of her best? I can’t recommend this book enough!!
I was lucky enough to be selected as an ARC reader for Frieda McFaddens, The Boyfriend.
To say I really enjoyed this book is an understatement. I, for the life of me, just cannot figure out how this author bests me every time. Just when I think I have gotten it figured out. Nope, in comes Frieda with a bomb of a plot twist. I was captivated right from the beginning of this book. True love, mystery, murder, mystery. What will they choose true love or what's right? Go read this book now!!!!!!!
Absolutely amazing! I could barely put it down. I loved the twist and was absolutely blown away by the ending. I think this is my favorite book yet!
I was so fortunate to receive an ARC copy of this to read. As a huge Freida fan, it was truly exceptional! I've read tons of Freida books, and I always think (even knowing how FM writes) that I have it figured out, but she has this way of twisting that is like no other. Expect the unexpected - and it was, the twist at the end had my jaw on the ground. She has a way to pull you in and not want to put the book down! I'd say this might be one of my favourite Freida books. Thank you to netgalley, poisonedpenpress and Freida McFadden it was a 10/10 in my books!
She does it again!!! Just when I think I’ve got it all figured out …. Nope . Wrong again!!! Thank you for the opportunity for this ARC!!
I LOVED this book! Freida’s books always capture me and I never want to put them down. This book, in my opinion, was written a little differently. It felt like it read a bit more sophisticatedly than her others that I have read and I really enjoyed it. It started out a bit slow, but it all built up to the climax. Every time I thought I knew the twist, I was wrong and I was so shocked when the twist was revealed. You won’t regret reading this book. It is so good!
This book had be going back and forth until the very end. Definitely on the top of my list for my most favorite Freida book.
Another great read by one of my favorite authors! Different from the others I’ve read, but enjoyed. Thank you!
