This is an intelligent read, well written and well plotted, regarding two sisters and one boyfriend. It wasn't stand out, but I enjoyed it and read it quickly, the twists and turns weren't anything new as such but I still really enjoyed it.

A tense and creepy thriller that keeps you turning the pages until the shocking ending. Full of twists and turns, it was fantastic!

Lizzie and her siblings are from a disfunctional family with hidden secrets, and many lies.
Their late sister, Freya was no saint, and was involved with Ned, who was a twin. Ned was evil, and was killed by Noel in a freak accident. Noel was jailed for driving away when he ran over Ned.

Brooke, Lizzie's sister is in love with Noel, but Lizzie doesn't trust him.

I did enjoy this novel, written from several POV's. However, I did work out one of the biggest twists in it.
The story flowed well, but I found the mistrust between the sisters a little boring. On the whole, the book was entertaining.

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read this book.

Woo hoo! Nicola Marsh does it again! This was an easy 5 star read. This author can weave such a twisted tale and execute it with precision. Fantastic characters that kept me reading long into the night. Chock full of secrets and lies with crazy tension. It was impossible to know who to trust.
Great read!
Thank you NetGalley, Nicola Marsh and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review this cracker of a book.

oh...my...gosh! what a beautifully written, page turner of a book! 1 million ⭐s/ ⭐s

The story walks through the different perspectives of three main people, two sisters, Lizzie and Brooke, and Brooke's new boyfriend Noel. Lizzie, a psychologist who works with ex-cons through art therapy, meets Noel, the newly released ex-con convicted for accidentally killing his brother. To Lizzie's surprise, Noel happens to be her sister's new boyfriend! There is just something about him Lizzie cant shake. Told through alternating perspectives, we hear from Brooke as she walks through her newfound relationship with Noel along with her blossoming relationship with Hope. We hear from Lizzie as she tries to investigate exactly what is off about her coworker/student, Noel and mend her relationship with Brooke. We mostly hear from Noel speaking about his brother in the past tense, uncovering what exactly went wrong leading to his accidentally death.

With lines crossing all over the place and plot twists galore, I could not put this book down! I received this book yesterday and finished it by last night! I was hooked from the very beginning. Murder and mystery, with a dish of family drama, what more could you want! The major twist had me gasping audibly and staring blankly into space for several minutes going back and noticing all the clues. I loved Lizzie and her protectiveness and loyalty to Brooke and Hope. They do say you will do "anything" for your family and where that boundary lies, who really knows?

I would recommend this book to absolutely everyone I know and look forward to reading more of Nicola Marsh's read! Definitely just found a new favorite author

Thank you so so so much to NetGalley and Nicola Marsh for allowing me to read an advanced reader copy of "My Sister's Boyfriend" in exchange for my honest feedback!

This talented author has written a page turner. Murder and mayhem…realistic characters…intrigue…mystery…recipe for a cannot put down novel. Do not try to guess the ending too soon. Red herrings and secrets make that difficult…twists and turns also. Thanks Netgalley.

What a finger licking story this is!

Usually a family should love and support each other, but there are families, like the one in the book, who tell lies and betray like there is no tomorrow. I  already had great fun discovering this entangled web, but there is a lot more to unveil. 

When you have been stabbed in the back once, you are suspicious of everything and everyone and you feel like you cannot trust anyone, not even those who have your best interests at heart. Everybody seems to want what you have and you decide, from now on, you will only rely on your own instincts...

I was shocked and flabbergasted on more than one occasion. This was such a roller coaster, filled to the rafters with twists. Even the twists had twists. :)

I loved every minute it took me to devour this book. It was even more tasty than a plate full of my favorite dessert. 5 stars.

Thank you
