Oh what a wicked web we weave... perhaps this should have prefaced the novel! A gripping read with totally unrelaible narrators and I was constalty wondering what was coming next! Really enjoyed it and raced through it. Great cover art too.

Thank you Boldwood Books and NetGalley for an early copy of The Beach House. What a Fantastic cover and Great title, who wouldn’t want to get into reading this. Always excited to see a Nina Manning book, this one didn’t disappoint. A few far fetched plots but I stuck with it and was glad how it ended. Seriously the cover was the Best!!!!

Thank you Boldwood Books and NetGalley for an early copy of The Beach House. Such a great read and fast too. The characters were ok but the stories being played out were good. A little far fetched one of the characters was but it was entertaining to read. Always love Nina Mannings books.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC! The publication date is the 16th August . This is the first book I’ve read from this author and it won’t be the last!

The characters were very well written my favourite character was Nicole and Margo. I raced through this book, it was gripping from the start and everything that a psychological thriller should be but don’t take my word for it...read it ! You wont be disappointed. The plot had me constantly guessing, about what would happen next it was definitely a page turner! I enjoyed the twists and turns this book presented.

Fabulously well written characters and a story line full of suspense, intrigue and just enough creepiness.
What more can you want from a clever thriller?
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.
Another nail biter from Nina Manning.

Awesome.
Work colleagues Nicole, Margo, Paisley and Audrey all appear to be looking forward to a weekend away at Nicole’s luxurious beach house on the Dorset coast. It should be a chance for the women to kick back, relax and regroup after a stressful moment at work. But this is no normal girls’ getaway. And the beach house is no normal home. This place holds dark secrets for Nicole, which threaten to be revealed when its doors are opened. And unbeknownst to host Nicole, each of the three other guests all have secrets of their own…and some of them could be deadly.
Thanks to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for giving me an advance copy.

I love Nina Mannings books and this one was up there for me.
Set at Nicole;s beach house 4 colleagues are there for the weekend to thrash out issue relating to how to keep there podcast and office recording space going after a less than flattering word is used by nicole live on air. They are getting push back from listeners and so need this weekend to brainstorm.
The story is told from each of the colleagues POV which makes the book more interesting as the reader knows what each women is hiding and that all of their secrets are going to come to head by the time the weekend is over.
A gripping read, so well paced. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

What Could Go Wrong..?
A weekend at a gloriously positioned beach house on the pretty Dorset coastline should be idyllic. Every luxury at fingertips. Nicole and her work partners need this break - not simply to thrash out how to save their business but on a personal level too. Things are not going to go exactly according to plan -;as when secrets are kept they have a habit of outing themselves. With the beach house holding its own secrets, and the women keeping theirs close to their chests, what could possibly go wrong? Pacy and compelling suspense with a deftly drawn and credible cast, an ideal location and a plot peppered with tension.

This would be my favorite book by Nina so far! A group of four women who work together go to a beach house to hash out business ideas. All four of them have a secret that will hurt someone, and can't seem to wait to bring others down. The connections here end up being more in depth than one would think. The suspense was good. I enjoyed it.

The Studio is a podcast and recording business and business owner Nicole has called a work weekend to save it from iniment failure. , Margo, Paisley and Audrey will all stay in her family's beach house to brainstorm solutions. Nicole has hired a private chef and ordered plenty of alcohol. But all of these women have secrets and whether they like it or not they will come our over the weekend. Can Nicole's professional and personal life survive?

Super fun vacation-gone-wrong. I enjoyed getting away with Nicole's colleagues and trying to guess the secrets. There were plenty of twists and mysteries and the story moved right along. If you like a locked room style story, a twisty mystery or just want to get away for the weekend, The Beach House is for you! #TheBeachHouse #Boldwood #Ninamanning
