Review:
I literally kept hearing about this book nonstop in all the book groups and on bookstagram! So I knew I had to read it!! I read it and then I listened to the audiobook and while the book was definitely an experience the audiobook was AMAZING! If you go the audiobook route the characters and the narrarators match the characters and I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Jane is down on her luck, she is trying to hide her past and start a new adventure! Jane is new to the area and so when she starts walking dogs in a very wealthy area of town she is doing pretty well. She keeps adding on new clients to walk their dogs and she's managing to thrift a few things to sell so that she can pay her rent to her tool of a roommate.
Now, let's talk about Eddie. Eddie is a man who is mourning because his wife and her best friend died at the lake about six months ago, and one day he meets Jane when he is backing out of his driveway and almost hits Jane.
That started their relationship. In the beginning she was walking his dog too and then he asked her out for dinner and their relationship blossomed from there. Jane is swept away by Eddie the way he stood up for her to her tool of a roommate and the way that he provides for her.
As time progresses Jane and Eddie's relationship becomes more of a serious relationship and she tries to fit into the neighborhood.
Now there is Bea. Bea was Eddie's wife until something happened at Lake. Bea tells her own part of the story in different chapters and she's not the sunshine that everyone makes her out to be but did she die on the lake, was she murdered, or did something more sinister happen to her?
This is one of those thrillers that has you on the edge of your seat and you have to continue in the book because you have to know what the secrets are and what actually happened! There are some easy twists in the story that are kind of predictable but they are so good! If you like thrillers by B.A. Paris and Samantha Downing then this is the book for you! It's a great fast paced read that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
