She’s looking for the perfect man. He’s looking for the perfect victim.
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can’t shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot.
Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He’s charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.

Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can’t shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn’t get to the truth, she’ll be the killer’s next victim…
A dark story about obsession and the things we’ll do for love, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden proves that crimes of passion are often the bloodiest…
I do enjoy a good Freida book. There’s always something I don’t see coming. At this point, I don’t even try to figure out how it ends or who did it, I just let it take me on that ride. That’s what happened with The Boyfriend. I was suspicious of everyone! Can you blame me?Some parts were a little slow but it picks up and then you’re at the end going what the f… just happened. While I enjoyed the book, I wasn’t sure how I felt about the way it ended at first. Then after sitting with it for a week, I’ve decided it ended okay.
Reading a Freida McFadden book feels like a guilty pleasure for me. I devour each book of hers I can get my hands on. I give this 4 stars.
