My thoughts…
I saw it coming – but the twist still shocked me to the core! This was such a brilliant book – so well-written and what surprised me the most is that the author has deviated away from her usual style. Helen Warner usually writes romances (I’ve never read them and only discovered Helen through being given this book to review) and her style and covers are completely different to this. But I like it. I love it in fact! When an author can deviate from their comfortable genre and trip head-first into writing psychological thrillers like this – well, it’s amazing. If you’re a fan of Helen Warner… say goodbye to her now and welcome HC Warner to the table. She’ll have you hooked.
About the book…
She’s everything he dreamed of. Isn’t she?
Ben can’t believe his luck when the beautiful Bella walks into his life, just when he needs her most. Still bruised and vulnerable since breaking-up with long-term girlfriend, Charlotte, he falls head over heels in love.
But Bella isn’t quite the ideal partner that Ben believes her to be. She quickly decides that everything is better when it is just the two of them – making it harder for friend and family to stay in touch. And then a sudden death triggers a chain of events that throws Ben headlong into a nightmare…
Secrets, lies, vengeance, and betrayal are at the heart of this story about a family that is destroyed when their son brings home the perfect girl…
