A birthday trip to a casino should mean champagne, laughter, and reckless luck—not a locked-door nightmare where colors decide who lives and who dies.
This story grabs you by the throat from the first spin of the wheel and never lets go. What begins as a glamorous night of celebration twists into a brutal underground game where roulette becomes a weapon and survival comes at an unbearable personal cost. Watching Taylor be forced to choose colors—each one sealing the fate of someone she loves—is absolutely harrowing. Every choice feels heavier than the last, and the psychological torment is just as sharp as the slasher elements.
The tension is relentless. Friendships crack under pressure, secrets rot to the surface, and the realization that this game was never random hits like a gut punch. The villain’s long-planned cruelty adds an extra layer of dread, making every reveal feel intentional, personal, and deeply unsettling.
Dark, clever, and emotionally brutal, this is slasher horror done right—where luck is a lie, guilt is inescapable, and survival is never clean. If you love high-stakes horror with twisted games, moral impossible choices, and a finale that lingers long after the last page, this one is an absolute must-read.

Wrong Choice
~ Jessica Lynn Sorensen
“Money does strange things to people. It's a parasite that burrows under your skin.”
Taylor is about to turn twenty-five, and what better place to celebrate than a casino, where the lights never dim and luck pretends it loves you. She invites her friends for a night meant for drinks, bad decisions, and the hopeful clink of coins turning into something more. The plan is simple. The outcome is not. Once the clock hits eleven, the games stop being about money, and survival becomes the real jackpot.
Sorensen stacks the table with a cast built on shared history, messy friendships, and lived-in experiences. Every character earns their seat. Even the ones you grit your teeth at. Especially the ones you grit your teeth at. There is one character in particular I would gladly push onto the roulette wheel and let fate have a long, thoughtful conversation with them. These people do not just exist on the page. They reach out, grab your nerves and emotions, and tug. Hard.
The emotional pull here runs deep. Trauma, grief, love, loyalty. All of it churns together like a deck of cards being aggressively shuffled. And yet, beneath the damage and fear, the story keeps circling back to one truth: strong bonds can keep you standing even when the floor feels rigged against you.
Atmosphere-wise, Wrong Choice slips its arm around horror and pulls it close. The descriptions are vivid and claustrophobic, like stepping into a room you know you should not be in but cannot stop yourself from entering. Sorensen has always been good at mind games, at sending readers down twisting paths, but this one is darker. Heavier. The kind of dark that lingers and waits until the lights are off.
The pacing is quick and clean, the transitions smooth enough that you barely notice time passing until you realize you have read the whole thing in one sitting. I did. This is a chilling, mind-bending story that will absolutely make me side-eye doors that disappear a little too neatly into casino walls from now on.
If you are looking for a psychological thriller that takes a dive into horror, Pre-Order Wrong Choice now on Amazon and be ready for its release on January 29, 2026. This is one you won't want to miss.
I would like to thank Jessica Lynn Sorensen for the opportunity to Alpha/Beta/ARC for Wrong Choice. As always, all opinions and reviews are of my own volition. I have not been promised any compensation, current or future, by the author or publisher for a fair and honest review.

Wrong Choice is a brutal, fast-paced slasher that wastes no time tightening the vise. Jessica Lynn Sorensen turns chance into a weapon, forcing impossible decisions that hit hard and linger long after the final spin. Tense, ruthless, and emotionally charged, this is horror that proves survival can be the cruelest outcome.

Woah. What a trip. “Wrong Choice” by Jessica Lynn Sorensen is an intense thriller horror that pulls you in fast and never lets go. Dark, brutal, and nerve-wracking, this story explores revenge, guilt, and the fight to survive. I will never look at a roulette game the same way again. The tension is relentless, the choices are horrifying, and I could not put it down.
