The first thing that attracted me about this book was the summary. Right away it was clear that there would be a lot of secrets. There are three different things going on for one of the main characters—a public life, a personal life, and a secret life. I thought it sounded very intriguing and it instantly put me on edge.
I also liked the idea of a home invasion. When I was living in Arizona, home invasion robberies happened fairly frequently since there was a lot of cartel activity in that area while I was living there. It was absolutely terrifying to think of someone breaking into my home while I was there. Home is the once place you are supposed to feel safe and to violate that feeling is crippling. So the summary coupled with this home invasion already made me feel uneasy and anxious to find out what was going on!
I have this one on my TBR and I hope that you do too! It sounds like it’s going to be dark and twisty and I am so here for it! It’s out today and I am really looking forward to checking it out! It’s been getting great early reviews so be sure to snag yourself a copy because it sounds like a thriller you do not want to miss!

Her public life
Jade Thompson has it all. She’s an up-and-coming social media influencer, and she has a beautiful new home and a successful architect for a fiancé. But there’s trouble behind the scenes. To Greg’s children, his divorce from their mother and his new life can only mean a big mid-life crisis. To Jade, his suburban Connecticut upbringing isn’t an easy match with her Caribbean roots.
Her private life A savage home invasion leaves Greg house-bound with a traumatic brain injury and glued to the live feeds from his ubiquitous security cameras. As the police investigate the crime and Greg’s frustration and rage grows, Jade begins to wonder what he may know about their attackers. And whether they are coming back.
Her secret life As Greg watches Jade’s comings and goings, he becomes convinced that her behavior is suspicious and that she’s hiding a big secret. The more he sees, the more he wonders whether the break-in was really a random burglary. And whether he’s worth more to Jade if he were dead than alive. (summary from Goodreads)
