Literally buy it. Kept me on my toes. I thought I knew what was happening and then I was hit with a brick. I feel lied to. Currently questioning everything. Jaw dropping.

I enjoyed reading this book and went through it pretty quickly thanks to the fast pace and mystery. The end

fell flat for me, and some aspects were just too convenient and seemed to only come together so the book can be completely tied up with a little bow of “the end”

. 

It is something I’d most enjoy as a beach or vacation read if I had to pick the best time for it.

Both narrators in this audiobook were great. There were a lot of great players in this one. Even though I had a hunch, I kept second guessing myself on how this storyline was going to play out. I am going to read more from this author. This is my favorite book written by these 2 authors. They kept me on my toes. Mild sexual content.
