Publisher's summary

Stella McKinney has a great life. With a Malibu beach house, doting husband, and a flourishing business, everything is coming up roses - until it isn't. When her beloved husband Grant begins behaving out of character and devoting more time to his career, Stella has reason to question his fidelity for the first time in their marriage.

As Stella's quest for the truth morphs into a sick obsession, the last thing she expects is a perfect stranger to show up at her door, a beautiful woman who knows intimate details about Stella and Grant that no one else could possibly know.

With her marriage and idyllic lifestyle at stake, the only way to uncover the truth is to ask herself how well she really knows her husband - and ultimately, how well she knows herself. And as Stella discovers, sometimes the truth is downright terrifying.

Not sure why the negative reviews

I found this to be a delightful pool read! Easy to follow, kept my interest the whole time and quite the little twist!

Wow, never saw it coming

Really great book with a twisted plot you’ll never see coming. When you think it’s one thing, it twists to something completely different. I highly recommend it!

pretty bad...but I finished

This was a brutal story to listen to. Besides the narration that failed to differentiate between characters, the storyline itself was weak and shallow...going in circles sometimes to advance the plot. It was free and helped to pass the time but I'm glad I didn't spend a credit on this.

Mind-numbingly awful

Waste of time and money. This book was so so bad, I can't believe I suffered through til the bitter, ridiculous end.

Painful all around

My first irritation was the narrator. I guess I got comfortable with good ones so this one was especially grating.

The characters were also irritating. Babe. Gag. Too much cheating. Too much porn. I’m not a prude and I can overlook some content if the story is good.

Which leads me to the third irritation. What story? I’m sure I gave up too early but I just couldn’t take any more. Listening to a narrator butcher a man’s voice while ordering a woman to bend over and watch him in the mirror as he pounds her from behind and realizing that I couldn’t stand any of the characters so far and had nothing to interest me enough to continue the torture…

I did what I rarely do and stopped listening to it.

Maybe others enjoy that stuff, I just couldn’t do it any more.

Just ok

The grammar is pretty bad. There were a few twists, but story was just ok. Glad it was free.
