About this listen

“We’re so excited to have you here in our home.” My boyfriend’s mother smiles at me a little too wide. His father’s eyes are hard at the edges. It’s like they’re hiding something. But of course, I already know that…

The mother: Stay-at-home mother Marta lives in her successful husband’s shadow, overlooked by him ever since her darling son Owen went to medical school. She’s not about to let the beautiful Gina take Owen away from her. Marta will play nice, get Gina to trust her. And then she has a plan of her own.

The son: Owen is already certain he wants to marry Gina. She’s perfect. They just have to get through this weekend and then he’ll propose. Sure, his mom can be overprotective. But Owen knows why. He knows what she’s hiding.

The girlfriend: Ever since purposefully running into Dr Owen Whitlock at the hospital, Gina has been playing the doting girlfriend. She didn’t mean to fall for Owen’s charms for real… Now she’s finally meeting his parents at their sprawling, secluded home. Gina knows all about the terrible secrets this family is covering up. And she’ll do anything to make sure they never find out who she really is.

By the end of the weekend, the Whitlock’s beautiful house will have burned to the ground. And someone won’t make it out alive…

Fans of The Housemaid, The Girl in Seat 2A and The Perfect Marriage will be totally hooked.

Suspenseful

Not sure how to review this. I love his author but this story dragged along for me. It kept me interested to find out the ending but was left feeling unsatisfied. Wasn’t a fan of the Mothers narration but maybe because the character was so awful. I fact there are no characters to root for.

Wowza!

Excellent story! Plenty of twists and turns! The characters were easy to love…or is it feel sorry for (Owen)? Also easy to hate (Marta).
I wish the narration had been better.

Plot Twist

I got this book because it sounded interesting, but I can’t wait to read all of her other books. Such a plat twist.

D+ cheesy with extra cheese sauce

This author is one of my favs so i feel guilty but this book missed the mark. It was like a bad lifetime movie. It could’ve been so good! (Light spoilers) The original storyline was there - but wife knowing ? The pictures? Dad openly flirting ? The aunt ??? Just so bad. HOWEVER, last 2 pages got 2 stars in themselves, esp last few sentences. I knew it was possibility but the way she worded it was BOOM.

Disappointed

Throughout this story, there were too many times I had to suspend my disbelief. Ridiculous ending!
