This was great book. There were a lot of twists and turns. It seemed just as thought I had it figured out it would twist again. I loved that I had no clue!!
Really enjoyed it you won't be disappointed.
Thank you Netgalley & Storm Publishing for allowing me to receive this ARC!

Very twisted read! From the start, there was many ways that the story could go but the twists made this book so good! Thank you for the ARC! I really enjoyed this book!

Madeline is a therapist with a murky past. Her husband Tyler meanwhile, has his own secrets. Neither of them are particularly likeable. Not in the least, actually.
This thriller was a bit of a mixed bag for me. While a few of the twists were interesting, on the whole the story required considerable suspension of disbelief - and that was made harder by the fact that it was difficult to really warm up to the main characters.
It will appeal most to those who like books that are heavily plot driven and are willing not to ask too many questions along the way.

Who Did I Marry by Sara Pucci is a twisty, fast-paced thriller that kept me hooked from the very beginning. The story is told from several perspectives, including Tyler, Madeline, Rose, Charlie, Liam, and even the detective investigating the case. Each character brings a different piece of the puzzle, and the constant shifts in point of view make it hard to put the book down.
The main mystery revolves around who killed Tyler’s half-brother, Daniel. Just when I thought I had it figured out, something new would be revealed that made me question everything. Everyone seems like they could be guilty at one point or another, which made the story even more fun to follow.
As someone who reads a lot of thrillers, I’ve learned to pay attention to the people who seem the least suspicious. That helped me guess who the killer was before the end, but I still had no idea why they did it. When the motive was finally revealed, it was definitely surprising and made total sense in a twisted way.
This is a great read if you like stories full of secrets, drama, and jaw-dropping twists.

Sorry net galley I really struggled with thus book
Madeline’s husband Tyler was what you call controlling, freak.
Their daughter Charlie was struggling with the arguments in the family.
On the day of Charlie’s birtday party a body was found outside their house and from then everything fell apart.
Did Tyler kill hum, and then there maid Sadie was murdered
sorry I just found it a very difficult read.

Madeline and Tyler are throwing a party. A dead body is found on their lawn. The first chapter was good but I then found it a bit flat and too fast paced to really understand.
The characters were, well characterless and unlikeable. Not one for me I’m afraid.

I read this through a digital ARC. It was a bit slow to get going, but once it picked up, it turned into a decent “who did it” kind of story. I wouldn’t say I was blown away, but it kept me interested enough to finish. None of the characters were particularly likable or easy to root for—but that actually worked in the story’s favor, since it kept everyone feeling like a possible suspect. It was a quick, easy read overall. I did figure out the ending pretty early on—once the daughter’s diary came up, it felt pretty clear where things were headed—but it was still an enjoyable ride.

Perfectly paced and full of twists I couldn't put it down and it kept me guessing all the way through. It was gripping and I finished it in a couple of hours

I loved it! So many twists and turns! You can’t trust anyone, and that’s what makes it so entertaining! THE DRAMA!! SO GOOD! I can’t wait to read more of this author, honestly. The epilogue was soooo good as well!!!

A thriller that asks you to suspend disbelief but forgets to give you a reason to care. Unfortunately, this one didn’t land for me. While the premise promised a gripping psychological drama, family secrets, a suspicious death, and a polished façade cracking under pressure, the execution lacked both credibility and emotional depth.
The characters were uniformly flat or bizarrely drawn. I don’t mind an unlikeable cast, but here, the issue wasn’t that they were flawed it was that they never felt fully real. Dialogue was heavy with exposition and often unnatural, with scenes that seemed designed more to push the plot along than to reflect how real people behave, especially in crisis.
Madeline, a therapist unable to show even the faintest hint of introspection, and Tyler, whose decision-making bordered on absurd, made it difficult to invest in the stakes. And while the rotating perspectives had potential, they only added to the disjointed feel of the narrative. Key emotional beats moments that should have shocked or moved were undermined by implausibility.
There was one solid twist near the end, but by that point, I was too detached to care. I finished it quickly, not because I was gripped, but because I was eager to move on.
I appreciate the ARC and the opportunity to read early, but this one missed the mark for me.

This is my first thriller ever and I’m sad to say that I’m disappointed . I didn’t enjoy it one bit, it felt forced and unrealistic . The characters weren’t lovable, and I get that they’re not supposed to be, but to be honest I didn’t care what happened to any of them .
Madeline was a therapist that couldn’t even help herself . Tyler found out that the person his wife was accused of murdering was alive and faked her dead, and instead of going to the authorities he got in bed with her . At the end it kind of feels like there is going to be a sequel, I’m afraid to admit that I wont be reading it .

A quick whodunnit with despicable characters, rotating POVs and a pretty good twist ending.
We start at Madeline and Tyler’s lavish upper east side townhouse for their daughter, Charlie’s 14th birthday. Tyler’s still at work, Madeline is annoyed, she’s not familiar with her daughter’s friends’ parents, her housekeeper is rude, her in-laws are stuffy, and her only ally is her best friend, Rose. Then a dead body appears in their backyard.
I wish I could say I finished this one within 24hrs because it was so good, but it was simply a fast read and I have so many other books on deck I’m excited to get to. The dialogue was unnatural and included too much exposition early on. It’s a book, give us exposition, don’t make the mother-in-law appear and give a long monologue only to have everyone else respond in monologue exposition. So unnecessary. I also could have done without the daughter’s journal entries that sounded like haikus, and anyone who has watched a cop show knows that a detective doesn’t answer a 911 destress call to only appear and head straight for the couch to chat without checking the place for intruders. So yes, I had a few issues.
Overall, it was fine, and I hope a lot of this is cleaned up for the final version before release.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Fast-paced thriller, but one-dimensional characters. It was difficult to really dive in and invest in any of the characters.
Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for access to this eARC.

This was a really good read! It was hard to put down and every time I thought I had the plot figured out, I was wrong. I love a good book that keeps me guessing and I love when the end wasn’t what I thought it would be! I definitely look forward to reading more from this author!
Great for mystery and thriller lovers!

Firstly, I’m very thankful for the opportunity to read this book and review it honestly.
Things I liked:
> the multiple perspectives, its interesting and adds a compelling aspect to the story.
> The first chapter
Things I didn’t like:
> the characters, I don’t mind unlikeable characters but these characters didn’t click with me at all, I felt like they were more one dimensional than not, and the dialogue didn’t always fit,
> The pacing, I’m normally a huge fan of fast paced thrillers but this book sometimes felt like whip lash and I felt lost and also like the gravity of some of the more shocking moments weren’t given room to breathe.
I am very thankful to have been allowed to read this book but it wasn’t for me personally.

Thank you Storm Publishing for the opportunity to read this ARC. Lots of twists and turns and lots of guessing games. Hard to put this one down.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a solid psychological thriller with some good twists and turns. This book kept my attention the entire time and kept me guessing. I really liked the storyline and the fact I couldn’t really trust anyone. Another thing I really liked was that it had the perspective of multiple characters. Definitely worth the read!

Madeline and Tyler are throwing their daughter Charlie a 14th birthday party at their home. The party was going along beautifully. Everybody seem to be having fun except Tyler was at home. He was still at work, but Madeline refused to ruin Charlie special day. Then justice the party was really getting going, there was a disturbance out in the backyard. Madeline and Rose who is her best friend find a dead body. Who is this person? What is he doing at Charlie’s birthday party? It wasn’t until they identified the man’s body that Madeline or should I call her Evelyn Was starting to get worried. Was her past catching up to her? Will she be able to keep ahead of this especially when she sees Tyler finally getting home and he doesn’t seem like he’s in any great shape.
Police try to figure out what went on there. We find many twists along the way. These people who they say they are what is everybody hiding? Why is Charlie so upset? How does Sadie fit into all of this? Well, these questions can be answered when you read this thriller and hope that your questions were all be answered. I love the twist and turns in this book. I thought I figured out the answer to the questions and I found out I was wrong. You find out that people are who they really are and there are people you really shouldn’t trust and how some people just pop up at the wrong time.
I enjoyed the characters of Maddie/Emlyn because she was really complex and you really never knew what she was going to do next. You know she loved her daughter and would do anything for her. With Tyler being so unstable will Madeline be able to hold it all together and get out of this whole situation without being thrown in jail? The writing was superb. It kept me guessing the whole time. I just truly enjoyed it, and I would recommend this to anybody who likes a real thriller.
Thank you NetGalley and Storm publishing for the advanced copy. I also would like to thank Miss Pucci for a very suspenseful and thrilling book. 4.5 stars.

This was such a good book. I loved the story and the writing so much. The characters were great and the story flowed smoothly. Will definitely read more books by this author in the future.

First, thank you Netgalley and Storm Publishing for this ARC!
A dead body at a party always does sort of ruin the fun, doesn't it? But that is exactly what is happening in tis book during the birthday party Tyler and Madeline are holding for her daughter.
The different POV's were a bit of a challenge again, but it was a good story with just the right pacing and twists and turns until the end, filled with a lot of chilling family secrets. Very recommended!
