When I found a thriller by not only one black woman, but TWO…I knew I had to read it and I’m so happy I did. These gorgeous identical twins are giving sexy thriller vibes with this one and I’m here for it all!

Simone grew up in a rich neighborhood as the only black family there but that didn’t last long. Her mother was brutally murdered and now her father sits behind bars. As an adult, Simone hides her past and works as a freelance book reviewer, has a lawyer boyfriend and is determined to get her innocent father out of prison.

One day Simone runs into her ex best friend and neighbor, Hunter Bishop. Talking about old times, Hunter revealed that his father and her mother had been having an affair for years. With this information Simone is disappointed, but now believes she knows who killed her mother. Will Simone be correct in her theory? Will being around Hunter not only bring up old childhood feelings but also new clues?

This book was all over the place and I enjoyed it! Did I figure out who the murderer was before the end of the book? Yes…but did I switch it a couple times? Yes! I loved all the twists and turns and the ending. Your turn to read it!! I look forward to reading their first book as well!
