Hello my lovely readers!
Another day, another book.
This was another audiobook exclusive thanks to a free credit on audiobooks.com. Let's get into it.
SUMMARY
Newlywed Jade Westmore is in newlywed heaven with her husband Wells. He's a charming, successful and recently divorced architect. But there's a catch. His first wife Sylvie still lives with him.
Three years ago, the original Mrs. Westmore suffered an accident and has been in a comatose-like state ever since. She sits in a caretaker's cottage behind the house saying nothing and doing nothing.
But one day, while Wells is away, Jade visits Sylvie bearing a peace offering: a bouquet of white lilies. And Sylvie has something for Jade as well: a piece of paper that reads one word. Run.
MY THOUGHTS
Sigh. Another thriller, another disappointment. I kept waiting on the "big" twist that never came.
It kept my attention well enough, but the author made it seem like a "who dun it" but I already knew who did what and why. I kept waiting on SOME kind of shock value, but nothing. The final pages of a thriller usually has some kind of altercation, a chase, a stabbing, a non-stop action sequence. None of that in this book. Just a mild car ride to the hospital, an arrest and....that's it.
Maybe it's time I seek out some other genres besides thrillers when it comes to fiction, because I've been severely disappointed in them.
