Review: The Crash

Tegan is eight months pregnant. She has money trouble, but she's supposed to be coming into a windfall of money. But that falls through. She decides to drive to her brother's house for a little R&R.

But she's not able to leave before the storm hits. Her car swerves on the road and hits a tree. With all the snow coming down, she's terrified that no one will find her. But a man in truck comes to her rescue. She's injured and would like to go to a hospital, but the roads are too bad. 

Luckily her rescuer has a nurse for a wife. Tegan's hoping that her ankle isn't terrible and that she can make it to the hospital tomorrow. Will the snow let up or will she be stuck there?

My Thoughts: This was a similar read to the author's other books - lots of twists and turns. I love her books because you never know what to expect. I read this in one sitting - because I needed to keep turning the pages. This one ended really well.

Review: Housemaid's Secret

 

* Book 2 in the Housemaid trilogy * 

Millie is back. Her life is still a struggle. She has a boyfriend who wants more from her. But she's not ready to tell him about her past and thus keeps him at an arm's length. 

She accepts a new job as a housemaid - but it's strange. She can't quite wrap her head around her new boss. And then it all goes sideways.

My Thoughts: Another great read from Freida McFadden. Another twist that I didn't see coming. Her books are ones that I need to have a clear afternoon with no plans. Because I don't want to put the book down! It's hard to talk about this one without spoilers, but I'm so curious to see where the next book will take us.

Cover Thoughts: I still like it

Review: The Housemaid

 

* First Book in a trilogy * 

Mille's out of prison and out of a job. When she lost her job, she lost her apartment. Millie's been living in her car. She needs to find a job pronto - or risk going back to prison. She stumbles across a job opportunity where she would work as a housekeep as a live-in maid. She thinks it's a dream come true.

But her boss, Nina, is nothing like she seemed in the interview. She's moody, jealous, makes giant messes, and lies. Millie thinks she's losing her mind with the whiplash. Can she last long enough to create a life for herself?

My Thoughts: I loved this book. I read it quickly, unable to put it down. There were twists and turns that I never saw coming. Just when I thought I had a handle on the story, everything changed.  I don't want to say too much without spoiling things. If you slept on this book like I did - go forth and pick this one up immediately!  I can't wait to read book 2. 

Cover Thoughts: Love it
