I was heavy-breathing through this book from about 50% to the end. It’s everything you’d expect from Frieda McFadden- the good and the bad- and it DELIVERED. I read it in two sittings of 50% each.
I made a grave mistake reading this at night, because my heart is beating fast and I’m probably not getting any sleep.

I didn’t see the twist in this one, and it had me screaming. There isn’t much I can praise or criticize without giving stuff away. 

I can say this ended up being a five star read for me DESPITE the FMC. She is almost willfully naive. 

Frieda McFadden has me hooked.
