Happily Married-Jenkins-Psych Thriller-Available Now

I’m a big fan of Victoria Jenkins, so of course I was happy to see her new psych thriller Happily Married available to read.

I don’t mind saying, though, that throughout the first part, I kept thinking that it didn’t feel like her usual stuff. It felt more…I don’t know….”mean” than her usual stuff. Like true evil instead of messing with someone’s head.

But even in those early chapters, I couldn’t help but look for the twist. I knew it had to be there, because I didn’t think she would go too far from her winning style. At one point, I thought I had it figured out but thought it couldn’t possibly be the case.

I was half right.

At any rate, by the time you finish with part one, you’ll be questioning everything you thought you knew to that point. So when you start part two, it’s almost like reading a new book.

Which is kinda cool.

The rest of the story – after that first big revelation – unwinds in a fashion more typical of the author. But with an added level of that particular secret.

(Obviously trying NOT to give anything away).

In retrospect, the whole book is very typical Victoria Jenkins, with other secrets and ulterior motives of the characters. And, as usual, the end drops revelations that show the reader an…alternate perspective (shall we say) of earlier events.

I love this author’s books. I know if I’m in the mood for a psych thriller, I’ll find a good one by Victoria Jenkins. Happily Married is a perfect example.
