"You Can Trust Me" by Wendy Heard exceeded my expectations! I could not stop reading this book and refused to put it down until I was finished with it.  From the very first chapter, I was transfixed with main characters. Best friends and brilliant con artists Summer and Leo have two dual stories slowly revealing what happens when Leo goes missing. Summer winds up on a secluded, private island owned by a billionaire looking for her. Their dual perspectives unravel two mysteries wrapped up in one story. There is obviously more going on than what is on the page, and that was enough to keep me guessing until the book finished. Author Wendy Heard lets the story simmer as a claustrophobic slow-burn until it all comes to a head in the last few chapters of the book. I found this to be a binge-worthy summer mystery you won't want to miss! 

Thank you to NetGalley, Wendy Heard, Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine and Bantam for the ARC of this book. All opinions are my own and I was not compensated for my review.
