To His New Wife by Willow Rose – Blog Tour 2/12/26 @bookouture @MadamWillowRose
Gripping, dark, twisted, menacing, suspenseful, and shocking! To His New Wife proved to be a fast and thrilling read which kept me guessing and turning the pages! Just when I thought I had things figured out, Willow Rose threw another zinger into the mix, and I was left rethinking my list of suspects!
Emma thought she had her happily ever after when she married Benjamin. She is welcomed into his family and works for Benjamin’s father. Benjamin and his daughter lost his first wife tragically. But Emma is hoping to help them pick up the pieces. Then a note arrives! A note that appears to come from his first wife claiming that Benjamin killed her!!!! Emma is naturally shocked, full of questions, and left feeling uneasy after receiving such a note. What really happened to his first wife? Who is behind the letters? Who can be trusted?
I thought Willow Rose did a great job of inserting doubt and fear into To His New Wife. I felt for Emma and her trepidation and fear jumped from the pages. Emma doesn’t know who is sending the notes, but they are getting under her skin. I thought this was depicted wonderfully in this book. Is his first wife dead or is she alive? If she is dead, why is someone sending the letters? So many questions swirled in my head while reading this book.
I found this book to be an entertaining and suspenseful page turner which kept me guessing. I loved the tension and suspense. I also enjoyed the sense of unease and impending danger. Like Emma, I never knew who could be trusted in this book. This is the second book I have read by Willow Rose, and I look forward to reading more of her books.

The Wife Before by Sheryl Browne – Blog Tour 2/7/26 @bookouture @SherylBrowne
Secrets and lies are the name of the game in The Wife Before! This is the 8th book which I have read by Sheryl Browne and she never disappoints me. As with the other books I have read by her, The Wife Before was gripping, mysterious, wonderfully written, thrilling, and had me trying to figure out who could be trusted and who was telling the truth!!!!
Kara has suffered a horrible, heartbreaking loss that has left her devastated and full of grief. When she met Jack, she realized that he had suffered a great loss as well. This helped them bond and lean on each other. As their bond deepens and their relationships blooms, there is a knock at the door which shakes the solid foundation they have built together. Jack’s former Mother-in-law has arrived and informed Kara that Jack killed her daughter! Jack denies the outrageous claim, but she has planted a seed of doubt in Kara.
Who can be trusted? Who is telling the truth? Is Jack a killer? Is Kara safe? Is the woman lying????
I love the seed of doubt that was planted in me. I also loved the mounting tension, dread, drama, and danger in this book. This book began feeling like a romance book but quickly moves into a mystery thriller! I love the twists and turns along the way. I thought I figured things out, then changed my mind, then changed it once again.
I enjoyed the pacing, the not knowing who I could trust, the well thought out plot, the characters, the twists, and the reveal in The Wife Before! Another thrilling and shocking book by Sheryl Browne.

Save Her Family by Stacy Green – Blog Tour 1/19/26 @bookouture #StacyGreen
Gripping, mysterious, shocking, and thrilling! Stacy Green and Special Agent Nikki Hunt are back with Save Her Family!!!! I have been a HUGE fan of this series since the very first book, The Girls in the Snow! This series is a MUST READ for me. Save Her Familyis the 11th book in the Nikki Hunt series and I am already looking forward to the next book.
Special Agent Nikki Hunt’s ten-year-old daughter Lacey witnessed the horrific murder of a woman at the beginning of this book. That sets the stage for Nikki to go full throttle into the murder investigation. Her daughter being an eyewitness puts her in danger and Nikki is not about to let anything happen to her child. Readers of the series know that Nikki has seen and experienced her fair share of loss since her teenage years. She has grown into a strong, hardworking and determined Special agent who will not let anything get in her way of solving crimes. This time it is personal, and Nikki will not be deterred.
I enjoyed the mystery in this book. I love how Stacy Green balances Nikki’s personal life with her professional life. I have enjoyed the character development throughout this series. I also enjoyed the teamwork in solving cases and the investigative work involved. Nikki comes up against quite a few characters and suspects who have secrets and are not too forthcoming. As the book progressed, I could feel Nikki’s frustration and her resolve to get to the bottom of things. I also tried to do my best super sleuthing as I read to determine whodunit.
As with the other books in this series, Save Her Family was gripping, has a great mystery, interesting characters, tension, twists, and shocking moments. As I mentioned earlier, I am already ready to read what comes next!
