The story follows the life of our FMC, Eden, who finds her life spiraling after sending her daughter to college and being on the verge of a divorce with her husband, Dave. I loved that while reading this story it kept you on your toes. However I was able to guess almost all of the plot twists which was the only downside.

This only my third thriller, and I’ve got to say it was pretty enjoyable overall! The twists were shocking and the main cast was very relatable. I especially loved the different points of view this book provided.

It was a quick page turner, and as a girl who usually does audiobooks and physical copies, I flew through this on an E-book. I find E-books VERY hard to be immersed in, but this one was easy!

Where it fell short:
I have to dock the 5th star because the romance aspects in this book was just not written in a way thats believable. The small spicy scenes felt rushed or, out of nowhere. The relationships she shared with her husband/ex-husband and her new love interest also just didn’t feel believable.
