False Step

De: Victoria Helen Stone

Narrado por: Melissa Moran

An Amazon Charts bestseller.

Stay calm, keep smiling, and watch your step. In this marriage of secrets and lies, nothing is what it seems.

For days, all of Denver, Colorado, has worried over the fate of a missing child, little Tanner Holcomb. Then, a miracle: handsome, athletic Johnny Bradley finds him, frightened but unharmed, on a hiking trail miles from his wealthy family’s mountain home.

In a heartbeat, his rescuer goes from financially strapped fitness trainer to celebrated hero. The heat of the spotlight may prove too much for Johnny’s picture-perfect family, however. His wife, Veronica, despises the pressure of the sudden fame, afraid that secrets and bitter resentments of her marriage may come to light. And she’s willing to do anything to keep them hidden.

But when a shocking revelation exposes an even darker side to Tanner’s disappearance, Veronica realizes that nothing in her life can be trusted. And everything should be feared.

Finished in 1 day. Excellent!

I read this book in one day and enjoyed it the whole way through. The narrator was excellent, the story was intriguing, and overall it was a great mystery that unfolded. There are some adult scenes so reader beware. With that said, I would recommend this to anyone who loves a good mystery novel.

Assumptions coupled with complacency...

Not my favorite from Stone... but also not as predictable as I expected. in my best facetious voice, "what can go wrong when you settle for the hot guy that got you pregnant too young?" The narrator didn't do it for me on this one...

Slightly predictable...

Still not sure how the title of the book comes into play with the story line but still a decent read. The main character frustrated me with her ups/downs and double standards. Overall though she is telling a story that many women can relate too.

Surprisingly complex keeps you constantly thinking

I was completely surprised by the ending. This book was well-written. I especially liked the way the author pulled you into the story; also the perspective that the author took to narrate the story from Veronica and how realistic a portrayal it was. Not everyone is perfect and everyone certainly has their own faults to deal with and stuff they do not want people to see.I didn't read much of the description of this book before reading the book itself so I didn't know what to expect. This story kept me captivated and had a few turns along the way that also kept me wondering. I enjoyed this listen and recommend it.

loved it!!!

was always waiting for the twists and turns around every corner!! kept me drawn in!

Good Story

I enjoyed this a lot. It had a bit of everything. Kept me engaged and entertained.

betrayal

I liked the story but it was a bit predictable for me. I suspected early on. Certain plot lines I knew for sure and others I suspected. I was not disappointed however.
I knew I would like this book because I listened to Jane Doe and loved it. I am partial to that book for sure. I have also listened to Evelyn:After. I really like Victoria Helen Stone.
Her characters are very real. They are flawed, driven people. She writes people well so the reader can understand and predict their behavior. This story is about betrayal on all fronts. It is a suspenseful relationship drama with crime mystery thrown in.
The narrator was perfect for the material.

A rip off of several popular books

I listened all the way through, hoping for a plot twist to break my feelings of “been there, done that”, but none ever came. I’m disappointed, but thankful that this was a kindle unlimited book.

Twisted

Lots of twists & turns. Surprising, mysterious, and twisted. Great characterizations of complicated, flawed individuals.

Keeps you guessing

Things are never what they seem to be throughout this developing story. Lies, betrayal and greed are very dangerous. What you fear the truth might change are nothing compared to what reality can unveil. One can't ever predict what your tomorrow may bring.
