✍🏼 An unfaithful wife takes her husband to an unconventional, intrusive therapist to confess her infidelity. Just ten sessions to repair the marriage; only these clients will uncover many more secrets.
✍🏼 I had high expectations because of the premise. It sounded different and I love a good domestic thriller. However, I felt let down. Both FMCs felt bland and there wasn't anything that made the couple seem like "golden couple".
✍🏼 The mystery throughout the book fell short towards the second halve of the book because of the random side plot "bad big pharma" and the suspenseful plot felt forced. As if it was made more complicated than it needed to be.
✍🏼 The only reason I did not DNF is because I wanted to make it through the ending and I was still curious and intrigue. I'm glad I powered through because the ending was good and made the whole book feel more complete (hence the generous rating).
