Erin moved across the world when her life fell apart. The loss of her sister ripped a hole in heart and Erin started to fill it when she met Danny. After a whirlwind romance Danny and Erin get married. Their life is perfect, well that’s what’s Erin thought.
That is until one morning Erin answers the door to Ben, Danny’s detective colleague while Behind them Danny jumps to his death out the forth floor window. Over the next 18 months we start to uncover that Erin’s been charged with her husbands Murder and the man she married isn’t really who he says he is! The truth comes out with a bang and Erin realises the perfect life was built on lies.
This book was such a wild ride. You have multiple timelines overlapping to tell the story of then, when Danny died and now! I didn’t see it coming until it hit me! Bit of a slow burn that all falls into place at the end.

Another excellent book by Jo Spain and fantastic way to begin June!
Erin and her husband Danny are having a lovely morning when the police knock on her door and Danny jumps off the balcony and kills himself. The next moment, she is on trial for the murder of her husband.
The writing style feels different from her other books I’ve read and I did find the book a bit confusing to start off with. But the more I read, the more I became addicted and everything came together so beautifully at the end! It is sneakily, cleverly written!
I don’t want to give too much away and spoil it too much but it’s so clever and I think everyone should go and read it! I can’t decide if this one or Dirty Little Secrets is my favourite!

Wow this book was unputdownable! Honestly it's starts with such a bang I was hooked. I felt all the pain and fear along with Erin our main character from the start all the way through.
Erin's life is shattered at the beginning when after a lovely perfectly normal seeming morning her beloved husband jumps to his death from their balcony. She spends the story trying to find out what on earth had caused this and why she had no idea, and while doing so ends up on trial for her husbands murder.
The story is told using different time lines and POVs and slowly unravels the mysteries that lead to her being arrested. It Is so cleverly told and leaves you never quite knowing what was happening until the end.
I will leave it there as my full review will be on my blog for the blog tour starting 13th May. Keep an eye out for that!!

This book had some jaw dropping moments, but I did find this a hard book to get into. The story has three timelines, and I found it hard to keep track of them, who was who, and what information was important. As the end drew closer, I wanted to know what happened to tie everything together, but I felt it fell flat.
