After the death of her first husband, Tom, Alice has found happiness again with Nathan. When all the signs start pointing to him cheating on her, however, she naturally confides in her best friend, Beth... but was that a good decision?

"Trust is a funny thing; it takes such a long time to build, yet it's broken in a second. She shouldn't trust me--it will be her undoing."

Even though I guessed the ending about 50 pages in, the ride there was so curvy and twisty that it definitely made me doubt my initial hunch! Normally, I'd be annoyed that the ending was so easily guessed, but in this case, there was something about the writing, the story, and/or my current mood that kept me intrigued all the way through... oh and also, I just had to see if I was correct after all. This fast-paced, suspenseful, domestic thriller would be perfect for a lazy day at the beach.

Lastly, I enjoyed this one much more than the author's debut, The Other Woman (3 stars)!
