A good enjoyable book, I flew through it as the storyline wasn’t too complex, saying that I didn’t guess the ending!
Well written and fast paced I’ll definitely keep a eye out for the author again

Ms. Rijks has done it again and written a marvelously suspenseful novel that will keep you reading into the night. I read this in one day!
Lydia Palmer seemed to have an amazing life with a great crafting business, two wonderful children, a husband that helped with the business and a beautiful home and cars. What no one knows is that Lydia and Adam aren't in love anymore and Adam is having an affair with Lydia's best friend Marianne. After the affair is discovered and the two decide to divorce Lydia finds Adam dead at the bottom of their pool-later find out he was electrocuted but police don't know how it was done.
4 months later Lydia is cyber dating and meets the incredible Patrick Grant who seems to good to be true. Things move quickly and strange events seem to keep happening including the police looking into Marianne's husband and Lydia's business partner Ajay for the murder of Adam. Lydia and Patrick rush into a quick marriage after 4 months of dating and the suspense really picks up as it seems someone is "out to get Lydia" and she doesn't know who to trust. Lots of suspense, wondering of who is causing the problems and lots of family drama keep you entertained until the end.

Roses Are Red by Miranda Rijks is an absolutely gripping, heart-pounding read that I devoured in a matter of hours. This is the perfect book to lose yourself in if you are looking for a fun escape from a harsh reality, and don't we all find ourselves in that particular boat?
Lydia is a thriving businesswoman who is on the brink of divorcing her husband, Adam. When he dies unexpectedly, Lydia quickly finds herself opening up to the possibility of finding love again, and she meets the charming Patrick through an online dating site. But just as her relationship with her new love seems almost too good to be true, Lydia has the nagging sense that someone is out to destroy her happiness. Can she fully trust her instincts, and just how close to home is a potential saboteur?
This was a thrilling ride from the very start, and I was pulled into the narrative almost immediately. In my experience, this always bodes well for my overall enjoyment of a book. Miranda Rijks is at the top of her game, and I will continue to read anything that she delivers. 4.5 stars
Many thanks to NetGalley and Inkubator Books for this ARC.
