Book Review: The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose

 A Review of The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose

Plot:

Would you defend your husband if he was accused of killing his mistress?

Sarah Morgan is a successful and powerful defense attorney in Washington D.C. At 33 years old, she is a named partner at her firm and life is going exactly how she planned.

The same cannot be said for her husband, Adam. He is a struggling writer who has had little success in his career. He begins to tire of his and Sarah’s relationship as she is constantly working.

Out in the secluded woods, at Adam and Sarah’s second home, Adam engages in a passionate affair with Kelly Summers.

Then, one morning everything changes. Adam is arrested for Kelly’s murder. She had been found stabbed to death in Adam and Sarah’s second home.

Sarah soon finds herself playing the defender for her own husband, a man accused of murdering his mistress.

Review:

★★★★☆

A classic tale of murdered mistress with a little twist!

I personally really liked this book! I normally read romance novels, but I decided to switch things up a little bit. I can definitely say after reading this book, I will be reading more thrillers in the future!

Throughout each chapter, I was coming up with different theories as to who killed Kelly Summers. Yet, all of my theories were disproven at the end, and I was extremely shocked by what I read. Some people may say it’s predictable, but I disagree.

I thought the characters were written really well. Adam Morgan absolutely disgusted me. He was an unfaithful husband and a horrible person, so I think he got what was coming for him. Sarah Morgan, a criminal defense attorney, was extremely calculated and determined (Also still trying to decide whether she’s psychotic or not).

Ultimately I gave this book four stars. I don’t think it’s the best book I’ve ever written, as the ending seemed quite rushed, but if you’re looking for a thriller to read, I’d check this book out!

Signing off,
