Loved this one from Colleen! Could see this as a movie or a show. Also look at trigger warnings on this one as well. This was one that I was intimidated to read but ended up loving it.
Okay, so everyone knows that Verity is probably my favourite psychological thriller ever, so when this came out, I was both excited and nervous because there was no way it would top Verity.
Well, it didn't ...
However ... it was very good. Granted, I'm not a fan of CoHo's usual style of books, but this one seemed darker so what the hell.
I read it as a buddy read. I was supposed to read it over 7 days ... I read it in 2. I won't lie. It was very addictive. I'll give CoHo her dues, she can write addictive books and characters you really root for.
The writing style was maybe a bit basic, and the story itself a bit ... meh. It was very cliche in places and received a few eye rolls from me. Luckily, it wasn't too heavy on the steamy stuff (which I can't stand), but the ending seemed to go on forever until I realised that CoHo actually wrote this in stages and kept adding epilogues, which then made sense.
A decent gripping read, but is it a psychological thriller? I'd have to say no. More romantic suspense I think.

Started out fine but then got very repetitive, seriously the middle 200ish pages restates the same thing- again, and again, and again
This book kept my attention…. Until the end. I’m an easy reader meaning I’m usually easily entertained and not a tough critic at all! I love Colleen Hoover books! But the ending I didn’t love.

I hated Asa. Found it an easy read though.
