All plot. No fluff. And a big twist I 1000% did not see coming.
4.5 stars -I love a sudsy thriller and Liv Constantine always delivers. They usually involve two women who are at odds over something involving a man. This book deals with Joanna who loses Leo to a younger woman. She is devastated over the lost and vows to get Leo back into her life. The book is told from two viewpoints like their two previous novels. There are lots of twist and turns along the way to keep the reader guessing. The ending is a little over the top, but that is what I expect from Constantine’s books. The Wife Stalker is a binge worthy read that I finished in 1.5 days. If you are looking for a fast paced, popcorn thriller, I would recommend THE WIFE STALKER.

If You Hate Kids but Only Date Dads Anyway: A Novel.
I really shouldn't have read this book right after Mrs. Parrish. In premise alone, this book is basically the same.
I went from loving this book, to hating it, and then to loving it again. This book utilized one of my favourite literary techniques, something I can only think to refer to as the "fake bottom" resolution. The climax of this novel had me so disappointed because it seemed the authors' were retconning everything that happened before in the sole attempt to subvert expectations. However, the last sentence of the book literally had me pumping both fists in the air. They came through. You had me.
And oh my god I loved it.

One of those novels that keeps key information from the reader until the very end.
