Vanessa Garbin, can we meet for coffee to talk about how you wrote this phenomenal book?!? This was just incredible. I am waiting for the Netflix series that needs to come with this. I loved the intensity, the secrets, the honesty, the realness, the characters, the plot. It was just so good! Loved it!

A quick read and an absolute page turner!

Nadia is delighted to be offered a new job and hopes that it will be a turning point for her and her husband, Matt, who is unable to work since injuring his back. When her boss, Jace, makes Nadia an offer that will solve all of their financial woes, Nadia doesn’t feel she can say no, but the repercussions will be life changing in ways she could never have imagined.

Sinister and twisty, with loads of suspense!

4.5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Vanessa Garbin and The Book Folks for an ARC in return for an honest review.

I loved this book it was a real page turner I was gripped as I delved deeper to find out how things would play out between Jace and Nadia.

The Port Coogee setting was captivating and somewhere I’d love to live! At times throughout the book I was rooting for Nadia.

There was many twists and mind-blown turns throughout at one stage I had to read it twice as couldn’t believe it! I’d highly recommend this book, I was engrossed; it was so good I read it in 24 hours!

Thank you to the publisher for this book and having me on the blog tour! I loved this short read which kept me on my toes! Full of secrets and twists! A great thriller.

After Nadia's husband hurts his back she finds she has to find employment in order to keep a roff over their heads.

She finds a job with with Jace selling houses and soon finds herself with a dilemma.. does she go through with it in order to keep her house ...and does she keep it secret from her husband...

This was a good read. i do wish the characters were a bit more fleshed out but that said I enjoyed the OMG twist and what Nadia did next. I almost screamed out loud with the final turn ..this is a book I will be recommending..
