I have mixed feelings about this book. The first few pages had me HOOKED. And there were a lot of things that I didn’t expect to happen. This book is definitely a page turner! However, I kind of felt like the main character (Erin) was a little annoying at times. This book is all her perspective, I think it would have been a little more interesting if parts of it were from her husbands perspective as well. The ending of book is a total bomb drop, and I loved parts of it! But I do think the ending was rushed and unexplained. Still a good book though! If someone asked me if they should read it, I would say yes.

Enjoyed the story, but felt like the ending wrapped up some of the plot points too quickly. It also wasn't grabbing my attention as much as I wanted it to, because it felt easy to put it down. Overall, a decent read.

Ugh, I’ve got to stop reading these books where the female protagonist goes from being so unobservant she can’t see what’s right in front of her to being a badass criminal mastermind. The story is somewhat engaging but the characters are ridiculous and you can see the twist coming a mile away.

Probably a 3.8. I didn't like the main characters choices but I really liked the ending. So I was torn between 3 and 4 stars. Definitely gripping enough to keep reading.
