Thanks to Netgalley for a review copy of this book.
Piper Reynard needs to start over, so she packs her bags and heads to Westport, Connecticut. There, she meets Leo Drakos, and is instantly taken by him. Promptly ignoring his wedding ring, she is determined to become his wife.
Joanna is Leo’s ex who, after all these years, is happy that he has come out of his depression and returned to his normal self. He has been busy with his children, and Joanna is determined to scoop him back up. There’s just one problem – Piper beat her to it. Joanna is hell-bent on finding something, anything, in Piper’s past to drag her through the dirt, and boy, does she hit the jackpot. After her discovery, however, she begins to fear for Leo’s and the children’s lives and is on a mission to loosen them from Piper’s grip.

Didn’t really love this book for the first 80%. It felt too much like the last Mrs Parrish (which I loved, but already read). I didn’t guess the twist and for that reason I give it a 3.4ish

WOW! This book definitely had one of the biggest twist that I did not see coming! Told from 2 POVS, Piper and Joanna, they are both in love with Leo. Initially, I couldn’t stand the book because the information provided was completely false! I was annoyed and angry at this book, but y’all when I say the ending was everything. I mean it was everything. All the falseness was then realized that it should have given me a clue about the twist! Yea, this book got me good!
Thanks for the gifted copy to Liv Constantine and Suzyapprovedbooktours!!

I feel like this book has been written a hundred times before and the twist in the end is doing little to salvage the lack of originality of the plot.
