Secrets and lies are the name of the game in this gripping and suspenseful psychological thriller with a jaw dropping reveal! It was supposed to be her dream wedding, but it turned into a nightmare….

Emily is happy to be marrying Jeremy and become a stepmother to his daughter. The day is perfect until she gets a blast from her past. Someone who knows the secrets she does not want her new husband to know. Emily’s former boyfriend was an uninvited guest at her wedding. When he began to make an announcement, my heart rate increased. Is he going to ruin her day? Is he going to spill the beans? He makes it clear to her that he wants to destroy her picture-perfect life by telling everyone her secrets!

The book slows down a little after the gripping beginning as readers are introduced to just enough information to whet our appetites. As the book progresses, the pace ramps up. There are a few twists and turns along the way which kept me on my toes. I thought I knew where this book was going. I thought how clever I was for having figured it out – WRONG! I wasn’t even close. I love it when this happens! As her former boyfriend threatens to divulge all her secrets, the tension mounts as Emily must do as he asks to keep her secrets safe.

The last part of the book becomes suspenseful, and I was shocked by the reveal. I did not see that coming at all! Total shocker! Another solid book by Croft.

Gripping, tense, and shocking!
