About this listen
Brooklyn Blatrix comes from a life of privilege being the heiress of the Blatrix Vacuum dynasty. The daughter of a devoted catholic school teacher and an alcoholic, absentee father, Brooklyn has felt the weight of responsibility her entire life. With her degree in Funeral Sciences just within reach, a text from her boyfriend of six years ending their relationship was not what she expected. Then again, neither was getting fired from her job within the same week. Determined to seek vengeance on her ex and his new girlfriend, Brooklyn sets up a fake social media profile to aid in her plan. However, by day, Brooklyn must start her new job as an intern at Macintosh Mortuary and Memorial Gardens.
Tall, dark, and quiet Brantley McAffey is not what Brooklyn expected from a Funeral Home Director, but that is exactly what she got. Brantley understands Brooklyn, the pressures she feels, and he does it with an air of intrigue Brooklyn can't seem to stay away from. But, Brantley has a secret he's been keeping from everyone - a secret he's willing to kill for - and Brooklyn is about to find herself in the trenches of a trial by media before the year is over.
THE FUNERAL DIRECTOR'S WIFE is a dark, romantic thriller that takes a twisting story of a passionate, but deadly, relationship and mixes it in with the complexities and dangers of social media.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.

All newly minted pediatrician Jamie Malek wants is to borrow a roasting pan for Christmas dinner. Unfortunately, that requires her to interact with Marc—her best friend’s troublemaking brother, who’s now a tech billionaire. He’s the one who got away. She’s the one who broke his heart. Outside, a howling blizzard. Inside, a crackling fire. Suddenly, being snowbound with the man she never expected to see again might not be such a bad way to spend a winter’s night.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

I was the girl no one looked at twice. Until they saw me. My whole life, no one has had my back. My parents are dead, my adoptive mother is a drug addict, and the mean girls on campus mock me for my scars. So when I end up desperate for money and out of options, I agree to sell the one thing I have left: my innocence. On the night I’m meant to give my body to a brutal Russian mobster, three men storm into the room like dark shadows and kill him before he can claim me. When they drag me from the blood-soaked bed, I’m certain they’re going to kill me too.

Story
I didn't really consider myself part of my father's legacy...until I found out what he left behind in his will: property, ten acres to be exact, which included the headquarters for his beloved motorcycle club. I had no idea that accepting the terms of my inheritance would thrust me into a battle with the new club president, Wesley Ryan. He's unfathomably handsome, menacing, and formidable in every way. But his derision toward me only makes me cling that much tighter to my birthright. That is, it did until he decides to play dirty.

Story
Summer, 2021. Nell has come home at her family's insistence to celebrate an anniversary. Fifty years ago, her father wrote The Golden Bones. Part picture book, part treasure hunt, Sir Frank Churcher created a fairy story about Elinore, a murdered woman whose skeleton was scattered all over England. Clues and puzzles in the pages of The Golden Bones led readers to seven sites where jewels were buried—gold and precious stones, each a different part of a skeleton. One by one, the tiny golden bones were dug up until only Elinore's pelvis remained hidden.

Story
I shouldn't have agreed to this. What was I thinking? Appearing on a local news show? Just because something happened to me? But here I am. And then I walked past his room. He's a giant—no softness, all muscle. And a rich beard that made me want to rub myself all over it. He made me see stars, literally, because the second time I saw him, I tripped. Or I would've, but he caught me, and the cameras were rolling. Soon, that clip will be trending because he wasn't just another guest on the show. He's Brett Broudou, the Kings' newest football star.

Story
What I thought was my pre-destined path was very much an illusion. Living seven years with regret, I realized too late that I was broken and that I only had myself to blame. I thought love could wait.... but it didn't. We'd had it all those years ago, and then I foolishly left it behind. She was all that mattered. She was all there ever was. There was no life without Dallas, no reason... except her.

Heartbreaking Thriller
This was such a good book! I couldn't put it down. I listened to the audiobook and the narrator, Lindsay Harper was so good. I had my earbuds on for a couple days because the novel was exceptionally good and I couldn't put it down. A true dark romantic thriller. Brooklyn's story was so real. This book captures, unhealthy relationships and crazy thinking when dumped and not accepting the truth about someone you think you love. So well written. The story reminded me of Scott Petterson, if anyone remembers him. I don't want to give anything away, but Brooklyn and Brantley's budding romance is a must read. I love Lindsay Keeling's writing style. It kept me engaged and on the edge of my seat. I will be seeking out more books by Keeling. Highly recommend this book if you are in the mood for a thriller with twists and turns.

Meh
The ending was weird and just stopped basically. I wasn’t impressed with this story. I’m not sure how to explain it, but it just didn’t grab me in.

Truly thrilling
I’m not entirely sure what I expected when I started this book, but WOW. I quite literally couldn’t put it down and stayed up way too late. The way the story was written was riveting. Brooklyn was a stressful character to read for me as a paranoid and anxiety-ridden human. She made a lot of choices throughout the book that have you on the edge of your seat.
I don’t want to give away all of the twists and GASP moments, but I will say I very much enjoyed the character development and believability of how this type of situation would go down in real life. I definitely shed a few tears. Shoutout to Ruby for being a great friend!
“She found respite in the horror that was other stranger's lives—mysteries and abominable crimes that could easily be shut off or changed by the click of her phone or television's button.”
“Our love was short
Our love was rare
We started a secret
And finished a nightmare.”
I was switching between reading and listening to the audiobook and enjoyed the narrator as well!
Read this if you enjoy:
⚰️ Dark romance thrillers
⚰️ Books like Gone Girl
⚰️ Lots of 😯 moments

Plotting Revenge
Brooklyn is having a string of bad days. She is a recent college graduate. She should have done her internship while in school but she waited. Now she finds out, her choice career may not be the right one for her. Her boyfriend broke up with her suddenly, right before her graduation ceremony. What timing! Brooklyn wants to take back some of her freedom and self-confidence. She plots, she wants revenge. However, things do not go as planned. Do they ever? Plenty of twists and unexpected turns. Overall, this was a really good story. I listened to the audio version, narration was well done. I will be looking for more from this author. I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving my review.

good story
I had mixed feelings about this book.
It has a good story, but I HATED the main characters. I think it was designed this way, but if not, then I'm sorry.
The narrator was okay.
