My Sister's Boyfriend by Nicola Marsh

My Sister's Boyfriend by Nicola Marsh - psychological thriller 

Noel has not long got out of prison. According to him, he accidentally ran over his twin brother. He is introduced to Brooke who has secrets of her own. Her sister, who recently died, had a child who Brooke is now looking after. The child is hers, one she thought had died at birth. She is introduced to Noel via a mutual friend and there are sparks between them of the good kind. Lizzie, Brooke’s other sister, smells a rat with Noel and looks into his past. They all have secrets that impact lives. Who is telling the truth and who can get away with murder?

OMG! A book that very quickly put me on the edge of my seat with that unsettled feeling of “what's going to happen”? There are two characters who have very good reasons not to trust people until they are sure and this gives a real edgy feeling to the story. It's a captivating, at times complex (but easy to follow as each chapter has a character heading) story and characters I wasn't sure whether to trust or not. “ The truth will always out” or will it? A book I wanted to race through which I really enjoyed.

“I’m going to make you like me, Lizzie,” my sister’s new boyfriend sneers. I arrange my features into a pleasant mask, willing myself not to look anxiously for the door. He thinks he’s always one step ahead, but he has no idea how far I’ll go to protect my family…

Noel never should have been released from prison. My job helping ex-prisoners turn over a new leaf usually warms my heart, but as soon as I lock eyes with Noel the skin along the nape of my neck prickles. He wasn’t locked up for a petty crime; it was manslaughter. And now he’s dating my sister.

Brooke says she’s never met a man who makes her feel so cherished and protected. That a single brush of his hand makes her heart flutter. A knight in shining armor who will finally lay to rest the twisted secrets in her past.

But he whispers words to me that Brooke can’t hear. Words that sound like threats. And I do the one thing I know I shouldn’t: I search through his prison files to find out all his secrets. And with trembling hands I discover that he didn’t kill his brother by accident…

Noel has no idea what I’m capable of. He could never imagine the darkness that lurks in our family. The things we’ll do to protect our own.

I nearly lost Brooke once, and I’ll never let that happen again…

An addictive, page-turning psychological thriller from USA Today bestseller Nicola Marsh. Fans of The Housemaid, Lisa Jewell and Mark Edwards will feel their hearts race as they find twist after twist!

All in Monte Carlo By Anna Shilling

  All In Monte Carlo by Anna Shilling-contemporary fiction  A fun read about the jet set of Monte Carlo. How the other half live! Monte Carlo is full of people wanting to impress in every way possible. £30,000 for a bottle of brandy isn't unheard of in this tongue in cheek tale. Think “ the real housewives of Monte Carlo” but not! There is betrayal and subterfuge, and beneath the banner of a book club there is plotting going on as a small group of women have had enough. However planning doesn’t stay on course and the women have to think on their feet- something they aren't quite used to. A book to be taken lightly and one with a smile but apparently based on true events! . Of the ups and downs of the millionaire lifestyle. This would make a good holiday read, one to bring a laugh. A book that is slightly bonkers, possibly how not to be aspirational and that money doesn't make anyone happy but may provide the ways and means. A different, crazy read. For more reviews please

The Bag of Secrets by Joy Ellis

  The Bag of Secrets By Joy Ellis- Crime When the body of a homeless woman is found, the police can't make it a priority as they have their hands full with the living and assign it to a rather arrogant DC who has much to learn, both in life and the job. Matt and Liz are handed a bag belonging to Molly, the deceased and it appears she may have been hiding something and they get the green light to investigate further. She wasn't who she first appeared to be and another homeless man knows there is another clue if only he can find it. There is also a teenager missing, one who has gone AWOL before but this time there’s something rather more about it. There’s a clue of “ The Bunker” and it's hard to find out exactly what this is as it's a well kept secret and those in the know are under pressure for it to remain so. What on earth is going on in the fens and why? I love this series (they do stand alone). There’s a wonderful camaraderie between Matt and Liz, and of course Rory
