Not much I can say without giving spoilers away. It felt like a rehash of the first book, just with different characters added in, and no real depth to it. We didn’t get much character development either. The main characters kept making stupid and serious mistakes that could have been avoided, but it is what it is. Honestly, yes, it was fast-paced as usual, but the only things I liked were seeing Pippa's POV and what she gets up to, and I also really liked Joe! I did like it a bit more than the first book, but not by much. I’ll continue to book three to see how it plays out when it releases, but let’s hope it stops after that.

Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read this! All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Daniel Hurst has become one of my favorite authors just from this series alone.

Darcy is hired to care for an elderly man with dementia and is trying to make it day to day in a brand new city. Darcy hears this man accuse people of some pretty nasty stuff and soon she doesn't know what to do. Does she believe this man? Does she go to the authorities?

This book had me on the edge of my seat, biting my nails waiting to see what happens next. This was a very quick and easy read - a palate cleanser if you will. It had me hooked and invested throughout the whole book.

I liked this book and the first book in this series so much that I went and ordered a bunch of this authors books and I am really looking forward to another book in this series. I will forever recommend this author to anyone that will listen to me talk about it!

The skill of Daniel hurst means it might be book 2 but you can read this without knowing the first. Told from the pov of the sisters Daecy and pippa. This is dull of drama and twists and turns. This for me was more about Pippa and it got me more invested in her . As always it ended too quickly and I'm hoping I don't have to wait roo long for another instatelment. The characters are so well written it's a real page turner. Need to view it as a slightly different story to the first to fully appreciate this bring more depth to the original story and sets up one hell of a finanle.
Thank you netgallery and publisher and author for thus highly recommended 5 star read.

Wow!! In true Daniel Hurst form, the twists and turns were jaw dropping! I love the characters and would read 100 more books about them. Another 5 star by Hurst, which I'm quickly learning is to be expected!

Enjoyable book again. I can not waitnronsee what Darcy and Pippa have in store in the 3 rd installment. Daniel's books have been page turner thrillers. Enjoyable characters.

She's back. And she's still perfect. Er, uh...whatever that means. The story continues and unfolds with more juicy secrets. It was great to get more details and some closure. I was happy to get the ending we did. Loved the bits of deception mixed with happy family moments. You have a way with that.

First of all thank you for approving my request!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The authors writing style had me hooked throughout this book.

I didn't want it to end, a book I really couldn't put down.

Holy crap .. He did it again I don't know how he does.. I totally thought I had to put figured out but boy was I wrong to twist in this book you just got to read it for yourself and find out and ur gonna think you have it figured out but you will be wrong . I lost time reading this book because I got so into it.

📚✨ BINGE READ ALERT! ✨📚

*The Nurses Lie* by Daniel Hurst is like a rollercoaster with NO brakes! Thrilling doesn’t even BEGIN to cover it. I was absolutely glued to this one and devoured it in one sitting! 🤯

The twists and turns are relentless. Every chapter pulls you deeper into the mystery, keeping you guessing and on the edge of your seat. If you love a good, heart-pounding read that keeps you guessing until the very last page, this is a MUST READ! 📚❤️‍🔥

I have found a new incredible author with this story. I was able to read this super quickly because I found myself unable to put it down. The multiple perspectives gave a full wrap around story that I felt I was involved in. The lengths this family will go through to protect each other is absolutely gripping. The utter chaos that takes place in Darcy and Pippa's life keeps you wanting more. Such a great story, I cannot wait to read book 3. I highly recommend!! Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read an advance review copy of this book

This was a great sequel to The Perfect Nurse. It was fast paced and I didn’t want to stop reading. It was good to find out more about Pippa and Darcy and what happened after Laurence died.

Darcy was working for Parker- she was caring for his dad who had dementia and she had a crush on Parker. She had no memory of her accident or Laurence’s death and she still didn’t remember her parents or her sister Pippa. Pippa wrote their names down and her parents address in a notebook and gave it to Darcy before she left. Parker’s father Joe kept warning Darcy off Parker and told her he wasn’t a nice man. Darcy followed Parker home one night and the outcome was disastrous.

Pippa was trying to hold things together for the sake of her son and husband while trying to support her parents who were sad to have lost Darcy again. Things got even worse when Eden turned up looking for Darcy and wanting to know where Laurence was. Pippa was in despair and rapidly things spiralled completely out of control.

Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for an advance copy of this book in return for an honest review.

This book is number 2 in the Perfect Nurse series. I suggest you read the 1st book as you might get confused. I love Daniel's books, and I certainly wasnt disappointed with this one. Cant wait for number 3 to come out.

I was so excited to read the sequel to The Perfect Nurse- I absolutely LOVED it. However, this book fell flat for me.

I felt like it was slow, lacked character development, and was just meh.

I will continue to read books by this author, but this one is my least favorite of the ones I hav read so far.

Thank you Netgalley for the ARC

Fast read, fun and light thriller. I would recommend the read, with no other expectations. I'm guessing that if I had read the first book of the series it would have made much more sense and been more fun, but, I'm not that intrigued as to actually read it.

However, so many things happen at the same time, so many coincidences, how are they going to get away with it? intriguing and am not sure if believable.

I love Daniels books, and read the first of these 2 books but this one just didn't do it for me. For me, it just felt too unrealistic, no real depth to the story and an ending that was just too quick and brief. Having said that, it does leave plenty of scope for a follow on.

Will certainly not put me off reading further books by this author though.

Wow! He has done it again!!!! This world, these characters… HAVE ALL OF MY ATTENTION.
I was thrilled to see POV from both sisters! How engaging… then the character depth of what each girl was struggling with… I could feel it! That ending brought shock value for sure but I still loved book 1 more! Hahaha
I am really enjoying this author and I can’t wait for the third installment!

I was drawn into the The Perfect Nurse series with book 1 & was excited for its follow-up! I always love to read a series by Daniel Hurst. He’s a talented psychological thriller author that didn’t disappoint with his latest.

Thank you, Daniel Hurst, Bookouture, & netgalley for my early copy! All opinions are my own.

Daniel Hurst has proven to be one of my favorite authors. I love how consistent and true to his style he is. Like the first book in this series, this one was packed full of drama and unexpected twists and turns. This story is told from dual POVs narrated by Darcy and her sister Pippa. This is book 2 in a series. While it can be read as a standalone, I recommend reading the 1st book for context.

This book was brilliantly written. Hurst has a skill when it comes to putting a story together that is irresistible.In usual Hurst fashion, every chapter ended on a cliffhanger, so it was impossible to put this one down. I loved this book just as much as the 1st one in the series. I can’t wait for book 3!

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for the ARC!

Rating: 4.5 stars!

What a perfectly wild way to continue this storyline! Like with the first book in the series, it gives Freida McFadden vibes with the twist and turns. The final chapter had me screaming. I cannot wait for the third (and final?) book of the series!

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

While on vacation (just getting around to posting the review!!) I finished the The Nurse’s Lie by Daniel Hurst, and like, can I just say, I totally should’ve read the first book! I mean, don’t get me wrong, it was fine as a standalone—like, it totally catches you up on what went down before—but I have this nagging FOMO that I missed out on some serious character bonding. You know what I mean?

So, the plot? LOVED it. It was super different and kept me on my toes the whole time. I’m always down for a story that isn’t just a carbon copy of everything else out there, and this one totally delivered. The twists and turns had me like, “Wait, WHAT?!” All the stuff I love!

As for the characters... meh, they were okay. Maybe if I had read the first book, I’d be more obsessed with the main two, but as it stands, I wasn’t completely hooked on them. Like, they were fine, but they didn’t give me that, “I’m totally invested in your life” vibe. Also hated their parents….

Oh, and this was my first time reading anything by Daniel Hurst, and honestly, his writing style gave me major Frieda McFadden vibes. So you know I’m already eyeing his *Doctor’s Wife* series! Next time, though, I’ll be starting from the beginning, because lesson learned, LOL.

Four stars from me! If you’re into thrillers with a fresh plot, def give this one a shot—just maybe start with the first book, unlike me!
