The Perfect Family (by Samantha King)

Wow! This was an edge-of-your-seat read. The reader is immediately drawn into the lives of Maddie and Dom Castle. Their whirlwind relationship takes off and you are prepared to read about a happy family with twins...a boy and a girl. But, things aren't always as they seem.

Suddenly you're discovering some difficulties in Maddie and Dom's relationship. And Maddie has made a decision that completely changes everything in their lives. But this isn't the end of the trauma! You continue to be sucked into the story of Maddie and her awakening to her horrible things have become.

And just when you think that things are looking up, you are once again suck into the vortex that is Maddie's reality.

This book is a wonderful psychological thriller. The author has done a wonderful job of investing the reader into the Maddie. You will waffle back and forth between being shocked at the words she actually said aloud...or she thinks she said aloud...and sympathy at all Maddie has and will endure.

I am looking forward to additional books by this author. She rocked it with her debut novel!
