Sometimes the truth is darker than fiction.
Liza Cole has thirty days to write the thriller that could put her back on the bestseller list. In the meantime, she’s struggling to start a family with her husband, who is distracted by the disappearance of his best friend, Nick. With stresses weighing her down in both her professional and her personal lives, Liza escapes into writing her latest heroine, Beth.
Beth is a new mother who suspects her husband is cheating on her while she’s home alone caring for their newborn. Angry and betrayed, she sets out to catch him in the act and make him pay for shattering the illusion of their perfect life. But before she realizes it, she’s tossing the body of her husband’s mistress into the East River.
Then the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. Nick’s body is dragged from the same river and Liza’s husband is arrested for his murder. Before her deadline is up, Liza will have to face up to the truths about the people around her, including herself. If she doesn’t, the end of her heroine’s story could be the end of her own.

Review:
This book was pretty dang awesome! The characters, especially Liza come across as so very realistic and interesting. The story progresses quite nicely, keeping the reader on their toes and wanting more. I seriously thought about this book every time I had to step away to do other things. (Damn you, real life!)
I loved the interesting way the story unfolds, switching the point of views and unraveling the story. This helped keep the tension going and the reader flipping through...I see what you did author! :)
All in all this book was a treat! Suspenseful, thought provoking, and delicious from start to finish!
