Hey Dearies!
Have you ever read a book and asked the question, “What the actual fuck am I reading?” I definitely asked this question after finishing this book. I had no idea what I would be reading until I actually read the book.
One of my friends recommended this one as well; she talked a little bit about it, and since it was on Kindle Unlimited, I figured, why not try something different? Especially since I was pretty bummed with the last romance novel I read, I figured taking a break from the romance novels to something different might help me.
Oh, but little did I know what I was reading until I actually read this. Let me get one thing straight: this chick is CRAZY. Not to mention, this is the first book; two others come right after. I also finished the first book so quickly and started right away on the other ones in just this week.
Anyway, let’s talk about what this story is really about. The POV is in Luna’s and Sadie’s. So, Luna is the crazy one who wants what Sadie has: her husband, her kids, and her life. She delivers packages to her daily and fantasizes about removing Sadie from her home and pretty much becoming her.
The thing that really shocked me is how she plans on doing it. I thought for sure she would get away with it, but I swear, she had all this planned out. Which when reading this, it makes me question where the author actually came up with this because this type of thinking is NUTS.
Usually, this isn’t the type of book that I would just randomly pick up and give it a go, but once you start reading, you just want to know how far she is willing to go to get this family. I wanted to know how she planned on doing it and if she’d get away with it all.
One of the key things that happened that makes this all go down is that Sadie and Reid, her husband, are having problems in their marriage. Sadie catches Reid sexting his co-worker, Gemma, which is causing tension between them.
Of course, once that trust is broken, it’s hard to get it back, and in this case, they decided to try and work on their marriage to see if there was anything left to save. Which is when the whole shit-show starts, when they leave to go to a spa retreat.
Luna overhears the conversation and uses it to her advantage. It also didn’t help that they decided to have this conversation when she was delivering a package to them the same day. I think this is when she started her plan.
I really don’t want to spoil it for you all because it’s just crazy what she does to not only get Sadie and Reid to divorce, but also to have Sadie lose custody of the two kids. Plus, she manages to get Reid wrapped around her finger once the divorce is all official.
I have to give her credit, she’s motivated to get what she wants, but why you would want to steal another person’s family is beyond me. She could’ve had one herself, you would’ve thought, but she mentions that she had tried, but nothing had worked out. Not to mention, she tried to do it with another family BEFORE!
I was shocked she was trying to do it with this family, but she did it to another family and got caught? Well, she had to get a whole new ID and life, which is why you find out that her real name is Sarah, not Luna.
Overall, this book keeps you on your toes for sure, and this was my first, I guess you can call it a thriller. Normally, I like cheesy romance or fantasy stuff, but I couldn’t put this book down. Especially when you find out what happens in the end, you want to read the second book just to find out what she does next.
Have you read this series, or is this something that has piqued your interest? Let me know if your curious to know how crazy Luna gets and I mean she gets even more unhindged than you think!
