Laura's on the verge of living the life she's always wanted. At the age of twenty-seven, she put her career plans on hold, married handsome widower Peter Foster, settled down in his Silicon Valley home, and helped raise his two children.

Twelve years later, its her turn to shine. Her career is thriving, the kids are out of the house, Peter's company is on the verge of an FDA approval that could garner a windfall in stock gains for them, and she's training for the Kona Ironman. But when a series of freak accidents can no longer be chalked up to bad luck, it becomes clear that someone is out to get her. Is it someone from work, jealous of her promotion? Or is it perhaps someone more dangerous? Someone closer to home?

Laura has no enemies that she knows of, but she senses that husband Peter is keeping secrets. And when she starts digging into the family's past, a twisted and unsettling story starts to slowly reveal itself. But with the walls closing in on her, she needs to find out why someone would want to harm herand what really happened to his first wife. Before it's too late.

The story is edge of your seat. And the beginning has you wondering if it’s just coincidence. Of course we know it’s not! I was a little let down with how easy the ending played out, but am definitely looking forward to the next book! Over all a good listen and the narration is spot on. She really nailed the characters.

Narration was great and I enjoyed all of the twists throughout the story. Its a mystery but it felt more like a light read. If you’re tired of your typical beach reads and need something a little more meaty this does the trick.

Fun and Keeps you Guessing

This book kept my interest the entire time. It had multiple twists that had me guessing of who was involved. I have to admit, I did suspect the husband, especially given the outcome of his 1st wife. The narrator did an amazing job. I love Meghan Kelly’s voice.

Great book!

This story had so many layers , and as each one was peeled back it revealed more hidden secrets . Is someone after Laura? Who would it be and why , if this is true??? Suspense kept me listening and guessing. What a spectacular ending. The twists were brilliant. It blows the doors right off!!! I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion . The narrator did a great job bringing the characters and story to life. I highly recommend this book.

Laura finally has it all! The handsome devoted husband, the promotion of a lifetime, a triathlon win within her grasp, and apparently, a stalker determined to see it ALL come to a brutal, and untimely end! Immediately capturing my interest, “The Stepfamily” held my attention throughout! The plot is intriguingly complex, but fear not, all is throughly explained, leaving no holes, gaps or unanswered questions once ALL is revealed. I’m not delving into plot details, I don’t want to spoil any of the MANY shockers for anyone, but I will tell you, as I sat listening, I was DESPERATE for the who … what … WHY, desperate for every clue, every answer, every piece to every puzzle that comprises this mysterious, spine tingling story! In short, the journey to the reveal is SPECTACULAR! As the story twists and turns, intricately deep characters reveal their true selves … some eye opening, some jaw dropping, some heartbreaking, others desperately in need of a cell … the who’s who, like the plot details, remain my secret for now … we can’t have spoilers! One spoiler I’m not afraid of sharing is that the narration is ASTOUNDING! The voicing is incredible! Eerie at times, emotional when called for, and one hundred percent on point in setting the mood, the ambiance of the story! If you close your eyes, (and when I wasn’t afraid to, I did), you can see the story play out in your minds’s eye, bringing the authors vision to stunning life! Truly a powerful performance of a fabulously written story! Five stunning stars.

A Twisty, Engrossing, Spine Tingling Listen!

What a wonderfully written story. It kept me guessing right up until the end. There were so many twists and turns I suspected everyone.
Meghan Kelly is a brilliant narrator. She puts every emotion into her words and I love that she can do the male voices along with the female voices.

WOW!
