I really hope Daniel hurst takes off like Freida McFadden has as they both write excellent popcorn thrillers that are easy to read and have you turning pages into the night. The twists and turns are wild (and sometimes far fetched) and I find myself wondering how he comes up with the ending. Please put your books and audiobooks on libby so the world can find you!!!

This book is full of so many twists and turns that I can barely say anything outside of the synopsis without spoiling the story! Darcy and Pippin are two nurses who were assigned to some very wealthy people, Adrian and his wife, Scarlett. Scarlett had an accident that left her with brain damage, and her husband has realized he can’t take care of her on his own any more.

Their first day at the house, Darcy feels something is off about this couple. She can’t put her finger on it, but these people make her uncomfortable, and so does the house. When Adrian asks her to stay over nights for extra pay, her alarm bells really start to go off, and that’s when we get to the heart of the story with all the twists.

Reality definitely needs to be suspended with this book; I didn’t see any of the twists coming, because they were so out there that they weren’t even in the realm of possibility for me. Also, this is set in Chicago with American characters, but I could tell the author is British by some of the words and phrases used. Maybe the UK and US versions are the same, but it was odd with characters from Chicago saying certain things. Overall though, this was a fast-paced read that was entertaining and pretty original. It looks like there will be more to Darcy’s story coming in the future, and I will be there for the second book! 3.5 stars.

(Thank you to Bookouture, Daniel Hurst and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my review. This book is slated to be released on July 1, 2024.)

I am always very pleased when it(s time to read another book by this author. Each and every time he entertains me with a story that I can immerse myself completely in and forget everything that is going on around me. He makes me go crazy, in the best possible way, trying to figure out the outcome to hit me with a twist that totally turns the world upside down. I could never have imagined this and that is what I love about his books.

Some memories fade away until they are gone altogether and that's a pity. Sometimes not remembering is a blessing, because some things are better kept hidden in the dark. 

The perfect nurse does not exist, because we all make mistakes, but Darcy was the perfect one for Adrian and Scarlet. They would not have wanted anyone else.

I loved it. 5 stars

Daniel’s books are always so good! This book kept me on my toes the entire time! Darcy is a great nurse, she loves helping people and it’s something she always wanted to do. But did she go too far? Did she help the wrong person do a bad thing? I really had an idea in my head of how the story was going to go but it went a completely different direction. The twists were just so good. This book was really good! Best thriller I’ve read in a while. I didn’t want to put it down. If you haven’t read Daniel’s books yet, you should. I would definitely recommend this book! Thank you NetGalley, Bookouture and Daniel for the ARC!

I love Daniel’s novels and this one was another fantastic read from the start! He writes such interesting and flawed characters, sometimes I feel sorry for them! Nurses are supposed to care when we are at our most vulnerable, not sure I’d want to be cared for by this one! A great, twisty read!

Wow! I loved this book. The first 30% was good but then it became impossible to put down and had me reading through the night. So many times I thought I knew where the story was heading but there were so many twists that left me shocked. After having read so many psychological thrillers I’m finding it harder to find new and unique twists but Daniel Hurst managed to accomplish that in this amazing book. The only negative I have was that I wanted an epilogue at the end as I felt it ended too soon but after learning this is the first book in The Perfect Nurse series I think it was fitting to leave the story at that point. I’m looking forward to not only reading the next book in the series but also reading more books by Daniel Hurst.

Darcy has always wanted to be a nurse, and loves her profession and helping people. But then she had to do something terrible. She broke all the rules a nurse should follow. She wanted someone gone so badly. And now they’re dead because of her. She’s afraid someone knows her secret. Daniel Hurst is a master at thrillers and he always ends up shocking me at least a couple of times each book!!! Five stars!!!B thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest review.

Daniel Hurst gets better and better. I thought it was the end and brilliant but no...i was only just over half way through and there was so much more to come...genius

Sorry this just didn't do it for me. The main character was all over the place and i found the story confusing.
Not one of Daniel Hurst's best as far as i am concerned.
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.

This was a really enjoyable thriller. This author has done it again with another fantastic fast paced thriller. He really knows how to catch your attention and keep you on the edge of your seat throughout. There was so many twists and turns which kept me glued to my kindle. Overall it was an excellent thriller with a very addictive storyline I can’t wait to recommend it to everyone. Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my advanced copy of this great book.

Thank you to Netgallery and the publisher for this ARC. The publication date is the 1st July. Wow, another suspenseful, plot twisting book by Daniel Hurst! I love all his books and his style of writing!

Whilst reading the book I thought I figured out what was going to happen I was so wrong and wow what an ending! I really hope this is part of series it would be great!

I’d highly recommend this book if you’re a fan of psychological thrillers with many twists and turns that keeps you glued to your kindle and/ or physical book.

He does it again here’s me thinking maybe this one won’t be as good and he gives me another cracker of a story that has kept me up for hours to finish it before I go to sleep. The twist in this one I was not anywhere near guessing and I loved it. This is great story writing at its best and I can’t really say much about it without spoiling the story but just pick up a copy and read this. Trust me on this one!

Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC. I am a little torn on it. It was easy to read and I found the end satisfying. The Perfect Nurse was written in First Person POV PRESENT TENSE. Sometimes I dont't mind that but I do enjoy past tense better, but in this case I was super aware of it. I kept thinking about it. Maybe just me though. All in all though it was an entertaining read and is the first book I've read from this author. I love all stories with nurses in them. ( I secretly wanted to be one but never made it happen.) The idea of an unreliable nurse is frightening . Entertaining twisty read that fits genre well.

So many twists and turns that I never saw coming. Each section was so well done, and kept me glued to find out what the HECK was happening. Hurst does this so well. Lies, secrets, murder, family and friends are all hiding something which makes this a very FUN read!

Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for this Advanced Reader’s Copy of The Perfect Nurse by Daniel Hurst due to be published July 1, 2024.
I have read 35 of Daniel Hurst's books, so I was thrilled to be able to review this one – he is one of my favorite authors!
Darcy and Pippa are nurses who go to work for Adrian and Scarlett – Scarlett is incapacitated and needs help – more help than Adrian can provide. But when Darcy and Pippa start working there, Darcy notices little things that do not seem right. Are they there to help, or should they be in fear for their life?
The Perfect Nurse is a typical Daniel Hurst book – starts out and you wonder where it is going and why everyone seems so “normal”. Oh. My. Gosh. About halfway through the reveals start and they don’t stop. You will never see them coming! I couldn’t get through this one fast enough to see what happened to Darcy, Pippa, Adrian, and Scarlett.
Daniel Hurst came through again – it’s why he is one of my favorite authors!

Another brilliant thriller from Daniel Hurst, full.of twists, shocks and surprises. I couldn't put it down, loved it!

Another quick afternoon read from the master of popcorn psychological thrillers. Bizarre confusing plot that is hard to keep up with what is happening; complete with a naive main character who constantly puts herself in danger. The perfect ingredients for an entertaining story that keeps you guessing!

I really enjoyed this one as it's fast-paced and clever with several twists I didn't see coming! Darcy and Pippa are nurses who take care of Pippa--wife of Adrian--as she slipped and fell in her kitchen and has brain damage so can't remember most things. But Darcy senses things are "off" and vows to discover what's really going on. But soon a strange man begins following her and she believes her house has been broken into at night, but the cops find nothing out of the ordinary and Darcy becomes even more paranoid as she can't make sense of any of this. I haven't read Hurst before but really enjoyed this one as it's so unusual...but I may not be excited to go to a hospital any time soon!
Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC!

I always get super excited when I see a new book by Hurst pop up on NG. I know I can count on him to deliver a fast and twisty read and this one did not disappoint. What a crazy ride!! I did NOT expect things to go the way that they did. I love the element of surprise and Hurst brilliantly laid me out with one big sucker punch to the face. Well played my friend! I loved every minute of this book and look forward to reading what he comes out with next. I HIGHLY recommend it!

Thank you to the author, Bookouture, and NetGalley for granting me digital access in exchange for my honest review!

Daniel Hurst has done it once again. His books are like being on a roller coaster ride. Read this one I promise you will not regret it.
