From the bestselling author of LOVE, MOM!
Man of the Year? A genius? Or a monster?
Natalie’s best friend leaves the dance club with a handsome stranger and is found unconscious at a bus stop the next morning. What happened that night? Only Natalie’s friend knows—except she’s in the hospital, in a coma…
When Natalie sees a handsome man on the cover of a financial magazine, she recognizes the “Man of the Year”—the stranger her friend left the club with.
He is a millionaire. He is famous. He is untouchable. And—Natalie suspects—dangerous. Desperate for answers, she takes a job as a housekeeper at his mansion.
Her plan is simple. Get close to him, watch his every move, gather evidence, and make him pay.
Except something’s not right about the mansion. Strange rules, hostile treatment from the staff, and an eerie feeling that she’s being watched and followed home. And what exactly happened to the previous housekeeper who went missing?
Natalie thought she was setting a trap. But the day she discovers the shocking truth about the “Man of the Year,” she realizes she might have walked straight into his…
How far would you go to get justice for your best friend?
I dove into this with no expectations or to try and figure out the ending. I wanted to be surprised and surprised I was. As far as the characters went, I struggled to connect with Natalie. I wanted to like her a lot more than I did. Pacing was good. I did not see the twists that came at the end and I really liked that! Especially about a certain character who had piqued my interest from the beginning.
As a whole this is a good read. I liked the author’s writing style and will check out her other book. If you’re a fan of twisty thrillers, consider adding this to your TBR. I give this a 3.5.
