Ratings and reviews

Quite possibly the worst book to come off NYT recommendations. Every one star review is absolutely correct. It is rushed, lazy and all around terrible. Plot holes aside there are 3 sentences that made me dry heave to no end. *POTENTIAL SPOILER* quotes straight from the book. 1- "Her breasts were full and uncaged under her white tee. Her nipples were prominent..." 2- "it took fifteen minutes to beat the memory of her out of my d!ck" and lastly 3- "I feel a cloying stickiness build up in my pant!es" ...this is the only time I've wanted to dismiss a woman's accomplishments in hopes of her being the face of a male ghost writer because who in the right mind (editors included) let that utter garbage slide. None of it was essential to the plot in case you haven't guessed. Save yourself the 4-5 hours of life it would take to read this nonsense. Yikes.

Sarah Morgan is a well established lawyer in the D.C. area and happily married for the last 10 years. Until one afternoon, when she gets a phone call from her mother in law from hell informing her that her husband has been arrested for murder. Sarah learns that her husband, Adam, has been cheating on her for over a year and is being accused of murdering his girlfriend, Kelly, and their unborn child. Sarah does the unthinkable and stays committed by choosing to defend Adam during his case since she is the best . Sarah must learn all the intimate details of Adam's affair in order to correctly defend Adam who swears he's innocent. This psychological thriller will definitely keep you guessing until the very end and then throw a huge plot twist right at the end for you.

I think the book did a great job with the suspense of the ending. that was wonderful. however, I think it was getting a little drawn out like for the dramatics, but the ending is well worth it. I was very shocked basically screaming at the book cause I would have never thought that that was going to be the ending
