Nothing deep but at least critical of the rich. Enjoyed the twists and turns. Male voices gave me a chuckle on the audio. The estie/ Nora camaraderie was cute. Marcus thread added tension, liked it but that felt a bit unresolved

An absolute perfect beach read, or in my case a wonderful “staycation” read! It captured my interest from the start…great summer mystery read that I will definitely recommend! I hope these authors collaborate again in the future!

📚✨ BOOK REVIEW ✨📚
Title: Happy Wife
Authors: Meredith Lavender & Kendall Shores
Genre: Domestic Thriller
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
💭 “In Winter Park, appearances are everything… until they aren’t.”
A twisty thriller set in Winter Park, Florida’s ultrawealthy community, Happy Wife follows 28-year-old Nora Davies—country club employee turned high-society wife. Her whirlwind marriage to Will Somerset, a high-powered, newly divorced lawyer, makes waves in their ritzy community. But when Will vanishes the morning after a lavish birthday bash, Nora’s fairy tale implodes.
As gossip spreads and fingers point, Nora must navigate privilege, paranoia, and buried secrets to clear her name. Told across dual timelines, this story blends glitzy settings, toxic relationships, and a central mystery that asks the question everyone’s dying to know: Where is Will?
Perfect for fans of messy wealth, sharp suspense, and the kind of drama where appearances aren’t just deceiving—they’re dangerous.
💬 A fun, bingeable read!
If you love Big Little Lies, Gone Girl, or anything with a “Real Housewives meets murder mystery” vibe, this one’s a must-read. It’s also a Read with Jenna Book Club pick, so you know it’s got book club buzz.
