About The Book:
He framed her. Now she'll destroy him. Five years ago, Olivia Sutherland was wrongfully convicted of plotting to murder. Now she's finally free, Olivia has three goals: repair her relationship with her daughter, clear her name, and bring down her husband – the man who framed her. Just how far is she willing to go to get what she wants? And how far will her husband go to stop her? Because his lies run deeper than Olivia could ever have imagined – and this time it’s not her freedom that’s in jeopardy, but her life.

My Review:
This book had a lot going on and I mean A LOT, too much in fact. There were so many characters and many different side plots going on it is enough to make ones head spin...and not in a good way. We have three points of view and plenty of shenanigans going on. It seemed to me everyone was sleeping with everyone but the person they're married to and we also have a cop, with two jobs, who never seems to have to be at work. The premise of husband framing his wife for his attempted murder sure was a good one, too bad the execution was a flop. There was too much going on with too many people and the majority of the plot and actions of the characters were completely unbelievable. I felt the same about Her Last Holiday (although I liked this one a bit better because the tension is certainly there and made it at least suspenseful) and it is obvious that C.L. Taylor just isn't the author for me.

Must Love Books by Shauna Robinson

My rating: 3.5 Stars A book about books and a girl who loves books? Yes please! Who could not love a premise like this? I loved the realistic characters and I felt for Nora, she captured my heart. I was really cheering a romance on for her but alas, it was not meant to be I guess. I appreciated that the author handled the mental health issues with sensitivity and care, who of us has not need to dig deep and make a hard decision based on what is best for us. It was very brave of the author to put working for a publishing house in a bad light and we all know this is fiction! Even though the book started off a bit slow for me it was a great way to spend a cozy Sunday afternoon and I found it very entertaining. With many thanks to NetGalley, Shauna Robinson and Sourcebooks Landmark for the giving of the ARC. View all my reviews
