Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for an early copy of this PHENOMENAL book The Wives!!!! The Cover is Super Gorgeous, makes me want to be there NOW! By far this is Valerie’s BEST BOOK EVER!! I’ve read most of her books and this one Never disappointed at Allll. Loved every bit of it, the characters, the plot, the friendships. The ending was a bit twisty and I was like WHOA. I am so very sad I’m done with the book, I could have stayed on this cruise forever.

This was a super fast read with lots of characters that were very easy to hate.

Lots of clues along the way, some of which took you in the wrong direction which made it interesting!

The ending threw in a twist that I did not expect!

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy of this book.

Natasha and Daniel are newlyweds with plans for the future. When they have that opportunity to go on a cruise with three of Natasha’s friends and their husbands. Underneath the surface they all have reasons for wanting Daniel dead.

Wow this was good. I couldn’t put it down and kept having to read just one more chapter. Daniel was a horrible character and the more I learned the more I disliked him. The wives seemed fickle and a bit shady too. I enjoyed the story and the background. No spoilers but one part in particular was very graphic! This kept me guessing until the end and tied up all the loose ends. A satisfying ending for me!

I love the style of writing from this author.
Another cracker here.
Daniel is a right piece of work and everyone has a reason to hate him. The question is who is willing to kill him?
Great read, full of twists and turns, the reader will be left guessing until the end.
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.
Keep them coming please Valerie Keogh.

Lies, secrets, deadly decisions…. When Natasha meets Daniel, she knows her life is made. Rich, handsome and charming, Daniel will make the perfect husband. Even if she won’t make the perfect wife!! Oooooh plenty of juicy secrets in this one!! Good book! This book had suspense, intrigue, murder, mystery, a sort of who done it and a few crazy twists and turns. The story was interesting! I definitely recommend reading this book! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

With this latest book Keogh has firmly cemented herself to the top tier of crime fiction: Agatha Christie hasn’t so much toppled as been pushed off this illustrious perch.
I don’t use this comparison lightly. I was brought up on Marple and Poirot, and The Wives has a strong Christie feel to it. Keogh, with this book, is a modern day Christie. Lord knows who she’ll be with the next one.
The Wives is ultimately about female friendship and what can happen when something or someone turns up to upset that fragile balance. Brilliant!
