I should wonder why I feel so comfortable with Taylor. Why I’m so enamored with a stranger I met at a bar.

I should, but I don’t.

Alice Brewster is at a low point. After being let go from her job at the ritzy Grant Hotel, she’s taken to hiding out at a dingy Manhattan pub just so that she won’t have to tell anyone the shameful truth.

So when blonde, beautiful Taylor waltzes in one sunny afternoon, Alice is ready for the distraction of an unpredictable new friend.

As Alice and Taylor get closer, Alice confesses the real reason she lost her job — a hotel guest, the wealthy real estate mogul Weston Chambers, assaulted her.

But while Alice wants sympathy, Taylor’s rage is white hot.

We could kill him, she says.

Alice thinks she’s joking. Of course she’s joking.

But then Weston Chambers turns up dead.

And Taylor is nowhere to be found.

Now Alice is the prime suspect in the murder. But can she track down Taylor — and unravel the truth about her new friend’s real motives — before it’s too late?

This book really had a lot of intrigue for me, didn’t expect a lot of what happened , not many books hold my interest like this one did.

So Glad I Stuck With It

I was 👌🏻this👌🏻 close to throwing in the towel when I first started this. Found Alice too mopey and shallow, and weirdly obsessed with Taylor. But I hate not finishing things, so I bunkered down and HOLY TOLEDO. When this book picked up pace it didn’t stop. Leading to the end, the author was inviting you to guess and come to the conclusions before spelling them out, something I find very satisfying. And the ending was crazy! Unexpected and I actually giggled despite the grisly nature of it. I love these creepy, twisted stories.

A thriller that kept me guessing until almost the end. Interesting twists and turns. A fun (if in some ways horrifying) read.

Fast paced, but not a slam dunk.

First of all, I'd give it 3 1/2 stars if that was possible. Overall, I enjoyed the book. It was interesting and kept me wanting to continue to read it. The plot was engaging and the author writes well. What I found annoying was that the main character, being an intelligent person, makes such poor judgments and decisions. I really don't care for the current genre of books in which women continue to make very poor decisions over and over again just to forward the action in the book. I did continue, but as a rule, these protagonists are annoying to me. I found the end a bit confusing and contrived. It was like the author had to develop a twist, but it wasn't believable to me.

Finished this last night! So good! Book kept me hooked the entire time! Loved the characters and didn't see the twists coming! Best book that I have read in quite a while. I even saved the last part of the book so I could savor it and concentrate on the ending. Look forward to reading more from this author. Does not disappoint.

A psychological thriller packed with chilling unexpected action. I never would have guessed the ending. This is the first book by Marissa Finch that I have read and I am off to read another of her books. I enjoyed this book so much that I now have a favorite new author. Thank you, M. Finch, for a wonderful wild ride in your imagination.

This was good, and had some clever twists but there were also some places where it didn’t flow as smoothly as it could have. Where the plot felt thin. But overall a good read and worth 4 stars!

Gosh, my second Marrissa Finch book.
To think at 30% thru i was going to stop reading, it flowed well and everything but i thought its going to go on about youth and nightclubs and bore me, im so glad i carried on reading, from 60% i had to go to the end i couldnt put it down, very good, thank you.
Ps. I would have preferred if Alice kept some of that money for her and her Mum, they did deserve some financial help just as other women of sexual abuse do. Their upset was important too.
