Books on Sale: Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane & More

RECOMMENDED: Pretty Little Wife by Darby Kane is $2.99! This is part of today’s Kindle Daily Deals, which feature a lot of Harlequin category romances. Elyse reviewed this one and gave it an A:

The story is really a cat-and-mouse game between Lila and Aaron (or whoever moved him), Lila and the police, and Lila and Aaron’s friends and family. It’s layers upon layers of deception, plots, counter-plots, and moments where I thought I figured out what was happening and was wrong.

That’s all I can really say without spoiling this wonderful, twisty thriller. Just trust me. You’ll love it.

But let’s start by telling everyone what it’s about. When Cade’s aunt Ruth dies, she … Continue reading Satisfaction Guaranteed by Karelia Stetz-Waters
