I could not put this book down. The entire time my mind was debating if Maren or Jade were unhinged and Tai was just caught in the middle. Without a doubt though it's clear Corey sucked. I did not expect the twists at the end of the book. I really enjoyed the book and will be looking for more books from this author.

Secrets can be deadly. Read this book to find out why. I was up half the night reading this book. Heck of a read.

Unfortunately, I didn't really care for this book. Jade is Corey's mistress They have a four-year-old son, Tai. After Corey dies, Jade takes Tai to meet Corey's wife in hopes that she will give them some money. The two girls kind of bond; more so over Tai, a lot of secrets come out about Jade, Corey, Tai, and Maren. What these women thought was real was just a lie? I skimmed it. It didn't grab my attention.

I really was not expecting this book to be as deep as it was, I found it quite sad at parts when you understand the motives of some people. Very good writing and still had all the elements of a good thriller!

Wow! Sit down and hold on for the ride! Another one of Ellie’s books that I didn't want to put down… Just as I love a psychological thriller to be and the ending was just perfect. Another stunningly compulsive read from a truly brilliant author!

I was hooked from the first page and blown away wow! This book was twisty , dark, disturbing and emotional.

I favourite character was Maren and liked her perspective in the book.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ from me!

Ugh. She just wanted to be a Mom so much. How heartbreaking. How does her husband do this to her. He got what he deserved for sure. Such an amazing book!

A wife and a mistress both keeping secrets.
A well written drama with some interesting twists and turns.
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

When your spouse dies suddenly, it is difficult to grasp this and you need time to deal with the grief. What you can miss as a toothache is that suddenly his mistress is at your door with their love baby.  The further the story progresses, the more we learn what people can hide. Even the people you trusted 100% and for whom you would go through the fire turn out to disappoint and have cheated on you;

As soon as the book starts, it becomes clear that someone was playing dirty. I like stories written from different perspectives and where the characters have quite a few secrets; This increases the tension because you want to know how everything fits together and this is of course accompanied by surprising revelations. Both ladies fight for what they want and everything is allowed in love and war. One of them will eventually win, right ...?

You can love someone very much, but when you discover the person behind the facade, this love can disappear like snow in the sun.

It is sometimes difficult to understand how people can behave so meanly and clearly think only of themselves, simply because they can.

Dark, shocking and emotional are three things that immediately come to mind when I describe this book. 5 stars

Thank you
