About this listen
Louise
Since her husband walked out, Louise has made her son her world, supporting them both with her part-time job. But all that changes when she meets…
David
Young, successful and charming – Louise cannot believe a man like him would look at her twice let alone be attracted to her. But that all comes to a grinding halt when she meets his wife…
Adele
Beautiful, elegant and sweet – Louise's new friend seems perfect in every way. As she becomes obsessed by this flawless couple, entangled in the intricate web of their marriage, they each, in turn, reach out to her.
But only when she gets to know them both does she begin to see the cracks… Is David really the man she thought she knew and is Adele as vulnerable as she appears?
Just what terrible secrets are they both hiding and how far will they go to keep them?

Best Twist EVER!!!
Louise has met someonw new, unaware that he is married to Adele, a disturbed woman with a sordid past.
The story is told from the perspwctive of wach of the characters, Louise and Adele. It also goes back into the past to find out about what made Adele the way she is.
The build up in this story was slow (hence only 14 out of 15 stars given) but wow when we reached our destination, did it blow my mind! Even my husband who is not much of a reader/listener stated that the ending made this book epic. Worth the wait, do it!

Not bad but strange twist
I got through it although i had my doubts .. took till 1/4 in then it caught my interest ... but I felt the genre changed all of a sudden towards the end in order to wrap the story up. The twist at the end was interesting but i felt just didn't suit the flow.

GREAT! - But lost me with the ending...
I loved the story! I was so invested in the characters... Never sure what turn the story would take. But the ending lost me - completely! Dissapointed with the last two chapters! You will never predict the end... Still enjoyed the story as a whole.
Easy listening... And the voice reading for Louise was absolutely splendid!
Definitely worth your time!

What a mind bugler!
If you like trying to figure out the ending of books, but like the twist in the end. This book is for you. The "I did not expect that" is what you'll have with this one. Enjoy, I did!

Thanks goodness I didn't give up....
I'm not one to give up on a book - ever. But, I have a dozen books I haven't listened to yet, and when this one was about 35 minutes in, I thought I might actually give it a miss. I couldn't remember why I had decided to buy the book either, so I thought I'd have a quick look at a review. I only remember seeing "don't trust this book", resisted the temptation to look further, and gave it another go. Well, thank goodness I did. I won't say a word further about the story, but it was worth sticking with!

Next time I'll do some homework
If I had read the authors bio (Fantasy novelist), read the reviews and ignored the PR copy I wouldn't have considered this book. Begins with an unoriginal 3-way love affair storyline with a wet un-engaging male lead and putters into silly stuff. My bad.

Stupid “magic” twist
Lots of suspense ... and it kept me wanting to know more but it’s a pity the twist is a silly supernatural deus ex machina.
Very silly.
A story of horrible people making stupid decisions.

That was a waste of points....
I cannot get past Chapter 10 and am now deleting this totally boring book from my device. I cannot figure out that there is a story here and am falling asleep listening to it. Sorry!
