Yikes that was like a soap mixed with a Lifetime movie. Too melodramatic for me and I hated the main character.

Rachel and her husband Jack are going to Portugal for Jack’s brother’s wedding. From Rachel’s perspective, Jack is acting weird around his brother’s fiancée, who Rachel finds to be a bit dramatic. They are also accompanied by their friends Paige and Noah. 

Most of this story is basic drama. Who is having an affair? Was that a flirty look between these two people? It was a bit annoying to get through when I was looking for an actual thriller. Rachel is the narrator throughout and she’s just so suspicious but won’t communicate with anyone. 

There is action at the very end, but it’s the last 50 pages or so. It’s not much compared to the entire book. And you find out so quickly who was responsible. 

It was an okay book but I would not classify this as a thriller.
