"Keep Me Safe" is a thrilling, fast-paced book that captivated me from start to finish. Its unpredictability and unexpected plot twists made it an absolutely engrossing read. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for my ARC.
Another great psychological thriller from this fabulous author. This was a rollercoaster of a read with lots of twists and turns and really makes you think while reading as at one point I thought I knew who was behind what was going on only to read a bit more and find I couldn’t have been more wrong.
This story makes you feel suspicious of everyone around you and not to trust them.
Look forward to seeing what this author writes next.
Lily and Alex meet at a wedding, but their relationship is soon threatened by secrets and lies. Alex, a famous actor, doubts Lily's intentions, wondering if she’s only after his money. Meanwhile, Lily is hiding a secret she doesn’t want Alex to discover.
Keep Me Safe by Sheryl Browne is a well-written, perfectly paced story filled with tension, danger, and numerous twists that kept me hooked from start to finish. Just when I thought I knew where the story was going, Sheryl Browne surprised me with another twist. A thoroughly enjoyable read.
I would like to thank Bookouture & NetGalley for providing an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and fair review.
WoW........Keep Me Safe by Sheryl Browne was one of the best books I have read especially as it kept me on my toes!! It was full of brilliant twists and turns that had you turning the pages to your kindle to find out what happens next! This book was so good I ended up reading it all day.
Superb Book with a great ending!!!
I highly recommend this book....Well all of Sheryl's books. They have all been a 5 star read and this one was no different!
Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for my ARC.
Sheryl Browne is a great storyteller and this book is no exception.
Lily and Alex meet at a wedding and hit it off, but both have secrets and both tell lies
The twists and turns in this book do not stop and you never know what is going to happen next.
A fast paced, great story packed with suspense and intrigue I couldn’t put it down.
A must read
This is an intriguing read that keeps you guessing throughout. It’s cleverly written where you think you know what’s going on but you actually haven’t a clue along with making you suspicious of everyone. The storyline moves at a slower pace but really builds the suspense. The characters are both likeable and dislikable and you’re never sure which you feel for specific characters 🤷♀️🤩. It’s a good read and I enjoyed it and I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to figure out what was going on.
Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review #KeepMeSafe
Always enjoy a Sheryl Browne thriller and this is no exception! Two people meet accidently (on purpose), both hiding secrets. There is twist after twist where you think you know what is going on until you realize it's something else!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!
This is a story about lies and the three main characters telling them and keeping secrets from each other. There is plenty of deceit and it's hard to figure out who is deceiving who. It's an intensely paced story from start to finish. All the characters are flawed and it's hard to figure out who to root for. The twists come one after another and the final twist is a jaw dropping surprise. I highly recommend this book. Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the chance to read the book. I really enjoyed it.
Alex and Lily's meeting at a wedding was not by chance, even though Lily wants Alex to believe that is the case. Both parties have secrets. We know from the beginning that Lily is holding a secret, but you do not fully understand just how big the secret is until later.
I was not really certain where this was headed in the beginning. But let me tell you when you start down this wild ride, you better put your seatbelt on and hang on tight. Shocking and distressing do not even begin to describe this plotline.
The suspense and intrigue are through the roof. The twists will give you whiplash. This was book was a creative genius that hooked this reader from start to finish. Now I need a nap.
Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Keep Me Safe by Sheryl Browne is a great, pacey thriller that will keep you on your toes until the very end.
The storyline was great and I flew through this book in one sitting. Kept me turning the pages late into the night.
Thank You NetGalley and Bookouture for your generosity and gifting me a copy of this amazing eARC!
Sheryl Browne returns following My Husband's House with her latest twisty domestic suspense, KEEP ME SAFE — A couple meet, two lonely souls, both with hidden dark secret pasts that collide with the present.
About...
A couple meet at a wedding.
Lily has a dark past history.
Alex is a famous actor.
Can they have a relationship?
Do they really trust one another?
Alex finds it difficult to trust others.
Are women after his money?
But they keep dating one another, keeping their feelings to themselves.
Was this a chance meeting, or was it planned?
They do not seem to be working.
They move on.
Years later Lily/Emily thinks Alex is stalking her.
She is trying to keep her family safe. Now she has a child and family to protect.
Someone is threatening her with break-ins and is being followed; however, they have no clue about her past and how fearless she is in protecting herself and her family.
Who is the person who is terrifying her with sick games? The past meets the present for an explosive finale.
My thoughts...
KEEP ME SAFE is a chilling twisty game of cat and mouse with unreliable narrators, where things are not as they appear. It will keep you guessing which one has the most secrets. This one will give you whiplash with all the twists, revenge, obsession, and dysfunction. That ending??
The author ratchets up the suspense and madness. She cleverly explores the dark side of the human psyche with an array of emotions from guilt, low self-esteem, shame, sadness, regret, trauma, and unhealthy and destructive behaviors that can cause other physical symptoms. When fighting back may have devastating consequences. A cautionary tale.

I always look forward to Sheryl Browne's books and I really enjoyed this one. Fast paced and twisty this one holds the reader's attention.
When one person is hiding secrets from their past it never ends well and when two people are hiding past secrets it becomes an explosive situation. That's what happens when "Lily"meets Alex at a wedding. Though their feelings for each other are real, neither is able to trust the other. When one runs to avoid their truths a ruthless cat and mouse game ensues. But who is chasing who and who is watching who. I thought I had it figured out and I was so wrong.
This book will have you hooked from the start. Twisty and totally unpredictable, you'll be turning the pages well into the night.
Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the advanced copy of this book
Keep Me Safe is an addictive, riveting, twist filled book, that had me turning the pages and wanting more! Every time I thought I knew where this book was heading, Sheryl Browne threw in a twist and left me with my jaw hanging open.
Lily and Alex met at a wedding, and it was bliss. But soon their own secrets and lies get in their way. Alex is a famous actor and wonders if Lily is only dating him for his money. Lily has a secret and doesn't want Alex to learn the truth....
Whew! Keep Me Safe was equally parts gripping and suspenseful. I loved not knowing what was going to happen next. This book begins with a chance meeting at a wedding and becomes so much more. I was shocked, intrigued, and fully invested. I had a hard time putting this book down when life got in the way. I needed to know what was going to happen next!
I found this book to not only be wonderfully written, but well thought out and perfectly paced as well. This book was also packed with tension, mounting danger, suspense, secrets, lies and twists galore! This is the 5th book I have read by Sheryl Browne, and I look forward to reading more of her books in the future!
This book was simply too long and repetitive for my liking. The storyline is fine, but I found all the characters off-putting, and they kept on being predictable and constantly agonising over and over about the same things. I did enjoy the few twists in the book.
Wow another brilliant book by this author , as per usual this grips you right from the start and doesn’t let go . Great story and characters. It’s definitely a must read for fans of this author and people who aren’t aware of her , you have a treat in store . I would highly recommend this book . 5 stars from me
Thank you Bookouture for a copy on Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
UK psychological thriller author Sheryl Browne is a whiz at engaging her audience with her clever, addictive reads.
Keep Me Safe is a wild ride.
Alex and Lily meet.
A passionate affair begins.
Both have secrets.
Can they trust each other….
Who is lying….
But ultimately who betrays who……
Sheryl goes from strength to strength and her shadowy stories are always strong and compelling.
A set of complex characters, a plot of intrigue, an eerie setting, a hooking twist, family dynamics and an unexpected ending.
I was very immersed in the cast, the mystery and the many moments that keep you guessing.
A tension fuelled, very gripping, dark themes and a whole lot of fun.
So very entertaining.
I am a fan of Sheryl brown, loving most of her books, but this one was really good! The things a domestic thriller need to have are a villain (or two) a messed up lead (or two) an overbearing mum (or two) and a sinister love interest (there was only one of those) it kept me gripped, I was unsure who the villain really was - but I really wanted it to not be Alex!! Despite many fingers pointing to it being!
A real must for those who love a dark and twisty tale!
Keep me Safe was definitely a rollercoaster ride. After finishing the book I looked up the author and was shocked to see how many books she has written and I can’t wait to read more! I’ve read quite a few suspense thrillers lately but this one might be the best yet. The story has many layers and lots of twists that I didn’t see coming. The book is newly out so go get your copy!
Emily has a plan to seduce Alex but doesn’t expect to actually catch feelings. When Emily was in the psych ward and met Olivia, Alex’s ex,her plan was to get some money out of him but instead she got an unexpected pregnancy and the need to flee.
Living her life always afraid isn’t the right way to live but she must keep her family safe and someone is threatening her. Little notes, break ins, the feeling of being followed all lead up to Emily having to race to her mother’s side. Whomever is after her is getting closer and they know where she’s been hiding her child. What they don’t know is this mother had already lost so much and she’ll do whatever it takes not to let anything happen this time.
Thank you, Bookouture for this advance copy.
If there’s one thing I can count on in life it’s that Sheryl will write an excellent fast paced domestic thriller.
I absolutely loved Keep Me Safe.
Alex, Emily and Olivia’s stories intertwined in the best way possible, leaving me guessing up until the very end (and afterwards) who could actually be trusted.
An absolute banger!
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC (Advance Reader Copy) of Keep Me Safe by Sheryl Browne. Well, I really enjoyed this one!
