Wow! This book was intense! I absolutely loved it! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The plot was complex with there being a lot of connections between the characters. The twists and turns had me SO captivated. I couldn't get through this bool fast enough. I was so curious to get to the ending, which did not disappoint. Family lies, betrayal and secrets are the theme in this nail biting, suspenseful book. Very intriguing storyline and even more enthralling writing.

Once I head this was a sequel, I went and read the first book, My Sister's Husband. It is not necessary, as this can be read as a standalone, but that book is just as good. I will definitely be reading more from this author.

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

A tale as old as time - good twin vs evil twin.

A complicated family - Lizzie and Brooke (sisters) have been through so much. Lizzie meeting someone she finds nice and attractive has been a long time coming. Dating is a new and exciting adventure!

Brooke has her doubts - which only adds more conflict between her and Lizzie. Brooke has seen the new boyfriend in a while other light. And it's not looking good.

This book is topsy turvy and keeps you on your toes! It's a fantastic story!

I had a really hard time getting into this one- the characters and the dynamics between them were confusing. I didn’t realize it was the 2nd in a series until I read other reviews so maybe that is why it felt confusing to me. The story centers on Brooke, who has met a new man named Noel that she really likes, but her sister Lizzie has also come into contact with Noel and has a different impression. Brooke and Lizzie are trying to rebuild their relationship after a previous incident that had pulled them apart.

I felt like Brooke was a bit of a whiny character and it didn’t feel like her personality fit the characterization about how effortlessly popular she had always been. There were some tense moments in the book but I figured out the big twist pretty early on. I do think that the 2nd half of the book was more engaging than the first half, but overall I just wasn’t all that invested in the story.

Overall, this one wasn’t for me but I have really enjoyed other books by this author. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Loved, loved, loved this wonderful story. an absolutely absorbing read. Completely transported me. Absolutely intriguing and hooky. Loved it.

The twist on this book!!!!! OMG!!! I cannot say enough. Twists and turns and very thrilling! Thank you netgalley.

I got a little lost with the back and forth in time and POV but overall a really good book. Will have to see what else this author has written.

Thoroughly enjoyed this book but wish I’d read the first in the series prior to this one to get the bigger picture!

With tension pretty much from the very first scene, I was surprised to discover that My Sister’s Boyfriend is a sequel to My Sister’s Husband. Going into this book blind, as I tend to do with authors that I really enjoy, I was pulled right into the story even though I did not read the first book.

The story begins when Lizzie’s sister Brooke has a new boyfriend. It is not simply the fact that Brooke has a boyfriend. His name is Noel. The issue that Lizzie has is that she knows Noel and the last thing she wants is her sister to be involved with him. Brooke has her own issues and having Noel in her life is making her happy. No doubt Brooke is concerned when Lizzie tries to warn her away from Noel.

As this is a psychological thriller, it should come to no surprise that there are secrets and hidden pasts in this story. Which character has the secrets and why was an intriguing story to watch unfold. I like how the drama played out in this story, especially as we see Brooke trying to keep it together so that she can protect Brooke.

In all honesty, my curiosity is piqued. I plan on reading both books in order, and this does include this book that is being reviewed now. I’d like to see the entire picture. Nonetheless, for the sake of this review, I have to take this time to applaud Nicola Marsh for writing such a thrilling story, one that kept me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end.

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

This is actually book number 2 in the Martino Bay series. Book number 1 is My sisters husband. I felt this one was just a bit too predictable for me. I do wish I had read number 1 first to get more of a background of the characters.

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.

I didn’t really piece together that this was the second book in a series, but honestly it read quite well as a stand alone. In the beginning I was thinking there was so much back story there could have been a prequel…but obviously there is! I’ll have to snag that one next because I was blown away by My Sister’s Boyfriend.

This book made for a quick read, and I had a hard time putting it down. The characters really came to life off the pages and I felt so immersed in their story. The twist was INSANE and I was absolutely floored.

Highly recommend!

This was a great story and really well written. Whilst where the plot was going was relatively obvious there was still enough shockers to leave you reeling by the end.

I had no idea that the book was a sequel, so have added My Sister's Husband to my ever growing tbr with immediate effect.

My Sister's Boyfriend was such a great read, full of suspense, shocker twists with an extra sting in the tail.

The plot is solid and had me hooked immediately. It's fast paced all the way and is told from the perspectives of the three main characters, Brooke, Noel and Lizzie.

On the whole I found the characters to be likeable, but there has to be a villain or two to keep you on your toes. Could I trust their narrations? Nope, not a chance! There were too many secrets and lies, with trust fast becoming thing of the past.

Enjoyable and entertaining.

This book was so good! I love family domestic thrillers and this one was so good! I highly recommend getting a glass of wine sitting by the fire and starting from start to finish!

This story shows the POVs of many characters. It follows along with sisters Brooke & Lizzie who are trying to find their footing with each other after finding out about betrayal and family lies. Brooke is trying to create a tighter bond with her daughter Hope, after learning the biggest secret in her life. Brooke starts dating and falling for an ex-con that was released by the name of Noel. Lizzie also works with Noel & she can’t stand him. Noel is a twin and you also get the good, the bad, & the ugly following them also. I love thrillers that includes twins so this was a cool read, I figured out the plot twist pretty early on but overall it was a good thriller. I enjoyed this authors style of writing also. Grateful for complimentary copy for my honest review.

A story about a family with secrets, each with their own. The last one revealed was the one I didn’t see coming. All in all a really fun, quick read. I didn’t realize that it’s a sequel to My Sister’s Husband. I’m reading that next!

3.5/5

I enjoyed this book but it was a little slow at times and predictable. I feel like the ending was a tad bit rushed with a few extra twists thrown in there for shock value.

The book did keep my attention and I did like reading this story.

Thank you Netgallery for the ARC.

This is such a fun and quick page turning read! I had such a blast reading this book, even though it was quite predictable in some areas. There were quite a few different POV's which took a couple chapters to really be able to identify and differentiate each character but once you get into you won't be able to put this down! I often found myself thinking how this story would make an addicting TV series.

_____
Brooke has an extremely complicated family, filled with betrayals and lies. After finding out she has a Daughter that was hidden from her, she returns home where she co-parents, and raises her daughter with her sister Lizzie. Until she meets Noel, who she immediately hits it off with, despite him coming clean about recently being released from prison.

He's a dream come true.
_____
Lizzie who works at the local prison comes across an inmate who is known as the model prisoner. Keeps his head down, polite, attends art therapy, shows remorse for his crime, and happens to be gorgeous. Yet there is something in her gut screaming at her that there is something off about him. As time passes and with him being released, she brushes off the eerie sense until one day she sees her sister with her new boyfriend.

It's him. Lizzie cannot believe that Brooke's boyfriend is Noel. The rush of panic floods her as she slowly starts to uncover his secrets, and Noel knows Lizzie is onto him.

_____
Noel did not have an easy childhood. He grew up with a twin brother, Ned. He always knew something was off with Ned when he started torturing animals at a young age, getting into trouble at school, and doing horrible things to his female classmates. But Noel always tried to protect his brother, tried to save him until a terrible accident that resulted in him being sent to prison for accidentally killing his brother.

I read this as a standalone and think that may have been to my own detriment so maybe read the 1st book 1st before starting this. That said, I loved it! The writing felt a but YA but it did imporeive theiugh the book and after a while I didn't really notice it too much. Loads of tiwts and turns but once I got my head round who's who then I was hooked! I loved that I kinda knew where it was going but was still shocked by the reveal at the end. Definitely worth a read.... just read book 1 1st

This was such a suspenseful read, I very enjoyed reading it.
There were some good twists in the story.
Overall, another great read from author Nicola March.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for an ARC
