I've had an abusive boyfriend in my time but nothing on this level thank goodness! I got out after the first black eye! I definitely recommend reading this book! Its a chilling story! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
What a gripping book! This one took me by surprise and held me tight till the end!
I was hooked once I opened my Kindle and I didn't stop till I finished!
This suspenseful book was so well written....I've never read anything by Ruby Speechley this was my first book! But it won't be my last! I loved her way of writing. Amazing!
Thank you NetGalley and Hera Books for this awesome advanced ebook!
Wow this book was amazing!! So many different stories all rolled into one. It does have elements of abuse and control so know that going into it. Definitely one to check out if you like the family, twisted, people get what they deserve in the end kind of book.

A fun read.
Gemma Adams, a happy wife, Online, people only see her picture-perfect home, her handsome husband, Nick, and her beautiful baby, Thomas. They don’t see the real Gemma Adams. They don’t see my past, the dark secrets I’m hiding in my marriage. They don’t see the fear I live in every single day.
But she knows someone is watching her And now, they’ve taken Thomas. She just don’t know why. But she's going to stop at nothing to get her baby back.
Is she hiding something? Who took her baby and why?
I was wondering what would happen next. This is so addictive writing.
Definitely recommend it.
Thanks to NetGalley and Hera Books for giving me an advanced copy.
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book but it absolutely was amazing. Tense and scary at parts. I couldn’t wait to find out the solution to this mystery.
I received The Face at the Window as part of a NetGalley giveaway.
Gemma Adams is determined to present to the world an Instagram-perfect life despite the deep instability at the heart of her marriage. When her newborn son Thomas disappears during a supermarket trip at the hands of one of her employees, she descends into a despair that must force her to confront dark truths about her life and relationship.
This was certainly a twisty novel one that I gobbled up in the course of a day. That said, for as gripping as it was, there are significant parts of the story I struggle with. First, I feel like Scarlett's participation in the kidnapping portion was handwaved away. She was certainly a victim, but she also seemed seriously unstable--at the very least, I certainly would have mandated serious therapy. Even her reasoning post-kidnapping was nonsensical ("Gemma knows I have him!" Yes, she thought you were watching him for a couple minutes while she paid for her groceries, not that you were going to disappear without a trace. Two VERY different things.). Additionally, the weird twist at the end concerning Scarlett's father seemed crammed in, arbitrary, and was impossible to resolve in any meaningful way. It was an interesting read, but not without flaws.
