  🤵❌️👰 NOT MY HUSBAND; My Review‼️👰❌️🤵 (Written by Cathryn Grant) Blurb; Today is the first day of my honeymoon, and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. But as I roll over to face my new husband, Jay, my scream breaks the silence… The man in bed with me is not the man I married. I beg him to get out, but he laughs and says I’ve always had an overactive imagination. He tells me that I’ve been under a lot of stress lately, so my mind must be playing tricks on me. I don’t believe him, but as he begins to describe me walking down the aisle, and other details from the wedding that only Jay could know, it has my head spinning. I’m certain this isn’t my husband, so how does he know so much? I rush out of the beautiful suite, ignoring the warm ocean breeze and scent of tropical flowers in the air. When I reach hotel reception, I beg for help, but instead of calling the police, the busy staff exchange worried looks. They think I’ve lost it. Then the strange man who is not my hus...

  🤫 The Silent Twin; My Review‼️🤫 (Written by Jen L. Crow) Blurb; EVERY FAMILY HAS SECRETS. SOME ARE DEADLY. Eve returns to the windswept Scottish island of her childhood, drawn back to her mother’s secluded artistic retreat by unsettling news – a local boy connected to the family has gone missing. But the island feels different. Her sister won’t speak, her brother is on edge, and the retreat’s once-thriving group of artists and misfits are quietly packing up and leaving. As a fierce storm rages across the island, Eve must confront whatever it is her family are hiding – and the darkness that may be lurking far closer than she ever imagined. My Review; I was looking forward to reading this book, based on it's Blurb, which sounded both intriguing, & promising. It took me a little while to get into this book; getting acquainted with the family member characters, plus the 'guest' artists, too, but once I'd gotten into it, I kept reading, wanting to read & know mor...

  🏡 The House Sitter; My Review‼️🏡 (Written by Keri Beevis) Blurb; She knows what she saw. But can she prove it? 👀 After my relationship breaks down, I agree to house-sit my brother Dexter's posh apartment whilst he’s out of the country. It will give me some much needed headspace. Sitting on the balcony one sweltering summer's evening in the midst of a power cut, I'm given a secret window into the lives of the residents in the opposite building, and I see more than I should. I'm drawn to a man in the penthouse and watch him closely and when a striking woman joins him on the balcony, I can’t tear my eyes away. The following weekend a woman matching her exact description is reported missing. She’s not been seen since that fateful night. When I go to the police, the man in the penthouse has a cast-iron alibi and denies she was ever there... I know what I saw and I can’t let it go. The deeper I dig, the more dangerous things become. Someone is watching me too. Just how m...

  🔪🥂 The Wedding Lies; My Review! 🥂🔪 (Written by Jade Lee Wright) Blurb; You think your family’s weird?  He promised me forever. But I might not make it to “I do.” I’m marrying Stephen at Shadowmoor Lodge.  His family’s luxurious estate deep in the frozen Surrey Hills. No phone signal, no neighbours, just Stephen’s controlling mother and a family that loves hunting, and watches me like I’m the entertainment.  I open my suitcase, but it’s not my stuff.  Inside is the exact outfit a woman called Charlotte Walker was wearing when she vanished a week ago.  Six days until my wedding.  And already I want to run. My Review; Well, this book had me drawn in from the very beginning, & kept me reading all the way through. I don't want to say too much about the plot; don't want to reveal any spoilers, but let's just say that the James family are found to be not what they seem! - I found this quite an eerie, & suspenseful read, 👌. Based on a rating of ...
