Silent Vows

A Psychological Thriller

Morally Grey CharacterRevenge

How far would you go for revenge?

Vanessa St. Clair is on top of her game and on top of the world. She has it all, a dazzling career, a fairytale romance, and a wedding day fast approaching. She's pinching herself because she can't believe how happy she is.

The daughter of billionaire Simon St. Clair, Vanessa has led a charmed life with the exception of one dark regret. Years ago, a tragic accident left a man dead, a friend imprisoned, and a terrible secret buried. Vanessa vowed never to speak of it again.

But secrets have a way of resurfacing.

Just days before her wedding, Vanessa receives an ominous note. Someone knows her secret-and they demand money-or promise death. After all, the dead man never had a choice.

As the blackmailer's demands grow more menacing, Vanessa is thrust into a chilling game of cat and mouse. The clock is ticking, and her once-perfect world begins to unravel. When the blackmailer finally forces her hand, tragedy will strike once again.

Will Vanessa get her happily ever after or will a stranger with a vendetta get their revenge?

Predictable ending to a degree but the story kept me interested throughout. I like that the author includes notes and texts in the novel. It was a fun way to break up the text. The beginning has "I Know What You Did Last Summer" vibes with a modern twist. The ending was fun. Overall, I felt the quality of the writing was good but I hated the female main character though I think that is okay.

Decent read.

This was my first read by this author, and I look forward to reading more. I loved the writing style and found this story so enjoyable. It had everything I could ask for from a psychological thriller, with layered tension throughout. I love it when I get to the end of a book with a little wry, satisfied smile, and this one gave me that. Fab!
