From the author of the multimillion-copy bestselling thriller The Marriage
Till death do us part. Yours. Not Mine.
It’s been eleven years since high-powered attorney Sarah Morgan defended her husband, Adam, against the charge of murdering his mistress. Sarah has long since moved on, starting a family with her new husband, Bob Miller, and changing careers. Her life is back to being exactly how she always wanted … or is it?
After discovering Bob engaged in a one-night stand, Sarah wastes no time filing for divorce. However, amid their ugly separation, new DNA evidence is uncovered in the case against Adam, forcing the police to reopen the investigation and putting Sarah right back in the spotlight. Everyone wants to know what really happened, most of all former deputy Marcus Hudson, who is hell-bent on finding the truth.
But when the woman Bob slept with is reported missing, he and Sarah start to fight dirty, and a high-stakes game of cat and mouse ensues. Filled with page-turning suspense and Jeneva Rose’s signature twists and turns, this book will have readers wondering, Can Bob and Sarah achieve the perfect divorce? Or will it be “till death do us part”?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
They say marriage is hard work, but in this twisty sequel to the head-spinning thriller The Perfect Marriage, it can be downright deadly. In a jaw-dropping reveal at the end of the first book (which you should definitely read first to avoid spoilers and enjoy the full, delicious effect), the devious Sarah Morgan saw her first husband, Adam, executed for the murder of his mistress. It’s now been over 10 years, and Sarah is happily married to her one-time accomplice, Bob…until she discovers he cheated, too. We had a feeling that an amicable split between these two was highly unlikely. But Sarah’s so wildly unpredictable, we truly never knew what she’d do next. (Seriously, just wait until you hear whom she had the audacity to name her daughter after.) By the time new evidence pops up in Adam’s old case and the woman Bob slept with goes missing, you know you’re in for one awesomely shocking ride.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Rose's suspenseful if overstuffed sequel to The Perfect Marriage, attorney turned nonprofit executive Sarah Morgan is thrust back into the spotlight after police reopen her late husband's murder case. It's been over a decade since Sarah's first husband, Adam, was executed by the state of Virginia for killing his mistress after Sarah failed to successfully defend him in court. When Prince William County officials uncover new DNA evidence linking a former sheriff to the murder, the current sheriff reaches out to Sarah—who now runs a foundation dedicated to helping felons acclimate to life after prison—to rehash the details of the crime. Meanwhile, Sarah navigates a messy divorce from her current husband, Bob, who's under suspicion for the disappearance of his own mistress. Both spouses are fighting bitterly to retain custody of their daughter, Summer, and threatening to expose the other's closely guarded secrets. Rose has a lot of fun with her characters' attempts to implicate each other in the book's overlapping criminal investigations, and maintains wicked tension from the opening pages. It all gets a bit convoluted by the end, but most thriller fans won't mind. This is a ride worth taking.
