<\/strong><\/p><\/center> <\/p>\n Betrayal was just the beginning\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n Melanie Hale is a devoted mother to her two children, a diligent caregiver to her ailing mother-in-law and a trusted neighbor in their wealthy Louisiana community. Above all, she\u2019s a loving partner to her wonderful husband, Collin.<\/p>\n Then there are the parts of herself that Mel keeps hidden. She\u2019s exhausted, worried and unfulfilled. So much so that one night, after a writers\u2019 group meeting, Mel begins an affair with a successful local author named Luke. Suddenly she\u2019s transformed into a role she doesn\u2019t recognize\u2014a woman who deceives with unseemly ease. A woman who might be capable of just about anything.<\/p>\n When Mel finds Luke\u2019s dead body in his lavish rented house, she realizes just how high the stakes have become. Not only does she have to keep her affair a secret in order to preserve her marriage, but she desperately needs to avoid being implicated in Luke\u2019s death. But who would want to kill him? Who else in her life is keeping secrets? And most terrifying of all, how far will they\u2014and she\u2014go to keep those secrets hidden? <\/p>\n <\/p> <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p><\/center> <\/p>\n This is the first book I have read by this author.<\/p>\n The synopsis intrigued me especially since I have been reading nothing but psychological thrillers. The Prologue had me hooked, but then it felt like it was a slow burn for quite a few chapters. However, the author’s writing style captivated me. I felt that I could actually feel the fear and panic of the main character, Melanie. This technique had me turning the pages as fast as I could read them.<\/p>\n Even though I figured out the plot and who the killer was, and it being a bit slow, I would read more books by this author because it was an enjoyable and entertaining read.<\/p>\n Purchase Links:<\/b> Amazon<\/a> 🔗 | Barnes & Noble 🔗<\/a> | Goodreads 🔗<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p> <\/p>\n <\/p><\/center> <\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Such A Good Wife by Seraphina Nova Glass Genre: Suspense, Psychological Thriller Published by Graydon House Publication Date: August 10, 021 ISBN-10: \u200e 1525896016 ISBN-13: \u200e 978-1525896019 Pages: 336 Review Copy From: Publisher Edition: ARC\/eARC My Rating: 4 Synopsis (via GR) Betrayal was just the beginning\u2026 Melanie Hale is a…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[65,175,168],"tags":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p370vC-6qV","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24733"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24733"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24733\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24734,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24733\/revisions\/24734"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cmashlovestoread.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}My Thoughts<\/h4>\n<\/strong>
