Sheila Tao is a college professor, who is engaged to Morris, an ex pro football player turned high stakes banker. It seems that she has a picture perfect life. However, Sheila has a seedy past and has been sleeping with her TA, Ethan (who is also in a long term relationship), for a few months.

ā¢ Just like jar of hearts, I was hooked right from the start and couldnāt put it down!Ā
ā¢ Thereās so much tension and suspense that itās pretty much impossible to not read till the end to know what happens.Ā
ā¢ Itās narrated in third person, which I surprisingly liked and it switched to different characters which added a lot to the story.Ā
ā¢ Also, something I really appreciated about this book was how fast paced it was and how it keeps you entertained without dragging out obvious plot points. I find that with some other thrillers, the obvious twists would be dragged out till the end. While with this book, everything felt balanced. It gets straight to the point without getting boring.Ā
ā¢ Throughout the book, I was a bit disappointed that it wasnāt dropping little twists here and there like jar of hearts, however, the ending made up for that 100%. I was literally in SHOCK. I did not see that plot twist coming it was just so unexpected and it took me a while to process it.Ā
ā¢ Thereās a sequel called Freak that Iāll have to read sometime soon because I felt like there were a few unanswered questions!Ā
ā¢ Iād highly recommend this to any thriller lovers (check trigger warnings though) and I canāt wait to read the rest of this authorās books!!!Ā

I was also a little creeped out by some of the older male characters and their list towards college women in tight jeans.Ā
