About this listen

This title contains strong language and mature themes, including references to sexual violence, abuse of minors and animals, and suicide, that some listeners may find upsetting. Discretion is advised.

I just met my new son-in-law . . . And he’s my ex-husband.

They’re here. I watch them arrive from the kitchen window. My pregnant daughter and her new husband. They’ve barely known each other six months.

I greet him with a tight smile that he recognizes as fake.

Luke is no good for my beautiful, fragile Cerys. He’ll break her heart. I know that because he broke mine — when he was married to me.

I don’t know what he’s after. But I’m going to make it my business to find out.

Don’t underestimate me. I’ll do anything to keep my daughter safe.

Excellent & Unusual

While you can figure out who Carelis is half way through, you still want to see how it happened and see the story unfold. I could listen to the narrator for Beth read the dictionary because of her mellifluous voice and dialect.

Great story, very cleverly written so I'll check for more books by the author.

Amazing

What a good book. Amazing storyline. I wouldn’t have been so protective of my daughter after she married my ex husband though.

The son in law

Overall the book was okay. The daughter marrying her mom’s ex husband was wild. The fact that she was so dense and couldn’t see that this guy was using her and her mother.

Liked it a lot!

No slow bits, plenty of twists, when you thought it was one way, it would 180. Kept me interested all the way.

Very convoluted plot. The Son in Law

I enjoyed most of the details in the book. Narration was good and the timeline was a little confused in the end. Overall a very good listen.

Weird story

Knew it would be weird due to the fact that her son in law was her ex… but the story just proceeded to get weirder and then just plain dumb

What the hell?

If you would love to waste hours of your life that you can't get back while rolling your eyes, cringing, and saying WTF?!! the entire time, then this is the book for you. The daughter is unbelievably dense, to the point of pushing me to want to be violent. I could not stop listening just out of morbid curiosity and a need for suffering, apparently. IDk... good luck.

The stupidity of the story

I just had to stop listening. It was just mind boggling in a bad way.
