🧠 Quick Take

This was a fast-paced mystery thriller that kept me guessing until the final chapters. I had my suspicions as to what was happening, but the ending was not all what I expected. It’s not my favorite book ever, but it was definitely a great read and hard to put down.

📖 What It’s About (No Spoilers)

Eva is starting over in a new town with her soon-to-be husband and her ten-year-old son, along with a fresh career as a wedding planner. But during her very first week on the job, she’s shaken when she meets a new client’s fiancé — a man who looks exactly like her late husband, Hugo. As Eva tries to make sense of the impossible resemblance, unsettling questions surface about the past, the truth she’s been living with, and whether some secrets were never truly buried.

👍 What Worked for Me

• A strong, unsettling premise that hooked me almost immediately
• Fast pacing with short chapters that kept the tension high
• A constant sense of unease, especially around identity and trust
• Plenty of twists that made me question what was really going on

👎 What Didn’t Quite Work

• Some character decisions felt frustrating or hard to buy into fully
• A few plot elements required a bit of suspension of disbelief
• The ending felt a bit rushed after so much buildup.

👀 Who This Book Is For

This book is a good fit for those who enjoy psychological thrillers that explore identity, secrets, and uneasy coincidences. If you like stories that move quickly, keep you guessing, and make you question what’s real versus what’s being hidden, this one will likely work for you. If you prefer deeply developed characters or strictly realistic plots, some elements here may stretch your suspension of disbelief.
