I’ve heard a lot of things about this book and I do think it lives up to the hype! I’ve never read anything by Colleen before but you can really tell she’s a romance author from the amount of sex in this book.
The themes in this are heavy - please do check the content warnings.
Overall I really enjoyed the structure of the book and the writing was actually super enjoyable. I like how the story kept me guessing - I enjoyed the plot twist too (not my absolute fav but definitely unique).
Would recommend if you’re looking for a dark and surprisingly sexy thriller about evil wives (and husbands??)
Read the bonus chapter - it left me viewing Jeremy in a completely different light!! Kinda want a sequel now just to see what happens to them in the future.
