Review: 

One of the best books I’ve read in a long time!!! 
Once you start this book you cannot put it down because you will want to know what happens next and will be on the edge of your seat! 
Iris and Gabriel seem to have everything put together. They have a home in the countryside, a good marriage, and a daughter who is happy and thriving while working abroad. 
Everything is going really well until they come home from vacation and find Laure in their home, which is not unusual because they are good friends with her and her husband but, it was unexpected. What is more unexpected is Laure came because her husband Pierre has told her he had a child with another woman, and she is very understandably distraught. So as Iris tries to comfort Laure as an extended house guest she begins wearing Iris's clothes and starts making friends with the neighbors and getting intertangled with her life. Iris is trying to push Laure to go home and try to work it out with her husband but Laure is not on the same page she wants to weigh out all her options before she makes up her mind on what she's going to do. 
However, with everything going on nothing is as it seems. Gabriel has a secret of his own and it is eating him alive Laure has a secret and Iris has a secret of her own. While the secrets start to unravel everything begins to get more intense and lives are lost and there is more than what meets the eye. 
I listened to the Audiobook and the narrarator was on point! She fit the character and she was very pleasant to listen to! Definitely an Audiobook I am going to purchase for myself! 
This is probably my favorite read of the past two months! It was amazing! I loved it and finished it in one afternoon because it was so good I was hooked. Thank you Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for the treat of listening and reviewing this one!

So later when Cory goes to see Jordan he is surprised but not as surprised as he is when Cory tells him he has a son. So now they are pretending to be in a relationship and they are going to Jordan's fathers funeral. Now, this game gets too serious when Cory starts to actually get feelings for Jordan and Jordan is too stubborn to tell Cory he has the same feelings. This is a cute quick read and I loved it and binged it in one night!

My Review of The Golden Couple by Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen

Title: The Golden Couple  Author: Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen  Expected Publication: March 8, 2022 Publisher: St. Martin's Press  Genre: Mystery/ Thriller  Pages: 336 pages  Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review:  OMG This is one that I was really enthusiastic to read because I have loved EVERYTHING that these two authors have written and just a little secret (they didn't let me down! I was glued to my kindle the last 40% of the book!) Marissa Bishop sought out Avery Chambers to help her with her marriage. Marissa had a fling and she wanted to tell her husband in a controlled environment, where she and he could work out their differences and heal their marriage. Avery is just the unorthodox therapist to do this, see she only takes clients that she can help in 10 visits because she has a system that works. So while they work through her program they can be in a different place than when they first came to see her. So, while it seems that the Bishops are getting through their

I don't think that I have ever read a book quite like this one but, it was worth a read! Scarlet is your atypical teenager, she is being raised by her really helicopter/overprotective mom. While Scarlet seems to be your regular teenager with regular problems her mother has been keeping a very big secret away from her! Scarlet finds out the reason for her mother's overprotectiveness when the FBI shows up at her house, and Scarlet finds out her father is a notorious serial killer and he is losing his battle with cancer. To make things more challenging about turning the life of Scarlet, since her father is losing his battle with cancer he has agreed to tell the names of his victims only to his daughter. Her fath
