The Golden Couple: A Novel

Great page turner with a brilliant main character and twists until the last page. The tough ex-therapist that breaks all the rules but keeps you pulling for her. Love the strong women in this book!

Such a quick easy read. Good characterization and the pace keeps you interested. I enjoyed it and would recommend to anyone looking for a good story with a twist.

Good book enjoyed

Interesting story line though I figured out who the good guys and the bad guys were fairy early in the story. Good character development. I would recommend to a friend.

I feel like it should have been obvious but it wasn't until it was ready for the big reveal. This was a good story the characters were well developed and the hints were just right. Just enough to keep them in the peripheral of your thoughts. I give it 3 out of 5 for being a good solid story. If you like a good lifetime movie mystery, I think you would really enjoy this book and I would also recommend if you like a good twist that when you get it you're like how did I not see it sooner, well played.

This was my third book from this duo that I've read. Was an easy read, definitely a thriller type book. I'd say if you like lifetime movies, you'll like this book. It's basically an elevated lifetime movie in book form. I recommend it!

This book had been on my list for a moment and in the middle of my vacation, I decided to give it a go and thank god I did. This was such a page turner and I didn’t expect the ending. I really enjoyed it and will be recommending to others.

I gave this twisty psychological thriller <b>4.5 Stars</b>.<b>SUMMARY</b>Marissa and Matthew appear to be the Golden Couple. They are both beautiful, they have the perfect house in the perfect neighborhood and a perfect eight year old son, Bennett. Matthew is very successful and Marissa not only owns a popular boutique, but she is a model mother and tireless volunteer at Bennett's perfect school. Marissa and Matthew met and dated as teenagers, reunited later and married, such a sweet story. 😍 Yes, Marissa and Matthew were perfect, until they weren't.The book opens with Matthew and Marissa in a therapist's office. With the help of (unconventional but amazingly effective), therapist Avery, Marissa confesses to Matthew that she slept with a man she met at the gym. Just once, its completely over, but she did it. Although Matthew is devastated (!), he agrees to work on their marriage and try to recover.But, weird things begin to happen. Little, subtle threats some to them and to their marriage; an old girlfriend of Matthew's is too pushy, flowers arriving with no card, Marissa's employee is acting strangely. Then Matthew is attacked in a parking lot.As stated previously, Avery is not a typical therapist. She digs in and tries to help solve the problems that threaten the marriage. Avery investigates these threats, tries to figure out who is behind them AND the answer is not what she was expecting!<b>WHAT I LOVED</b>This book had many layers, there was always more to the story than I was anticipating. I loved the characters, my favorite was a rescue dog, but all the characters were interesting. I particularly liked Avery. I wouldn't hate it if there was a new series about Avery and her clients... I loved the DC setting, its a unique town. I loved the story itself, it was a fresh take on the "perfect marriage that was not really perfect" thriller genre.<b>WHAT I DIDN'T LOVE</b>I really cannot think of anything I didn't like about the book, I'm just not sure I can give it 5 stars. I reserve my 5 star rating for books that are more timeless and will stick with me long term.<b>OVERALL</b>If you're a fan of thrillers and are wondering what to read next, this book will not disappoint! You'll find yourself reading past your bedtime, unable to put it down.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I did not expect the plot twist at all. Very entertaining read.

An engaging psychological thriller that is very well-plotted.

I loved the characters the twist and turns of the story.Once you start reading you don't want to put it down.

Been a fan of Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkenan ever since I read The Wife Between Us and this one doesn't disappoint. If psychological thrillers are your thing, this is a great pick!

Although I guessed the culprit really early on I still enjoyed this book. Twisty and well written.
