Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday that was hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.
Uh, oh…what could go wrong. Can’t Wait!
Description
The tenth thriller from the New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next DoorJill and Ted adore their New York brownstone the way others adore their children. They have carefully, expensively, made every inch of it their own. It reflects who they are, their status and tastes. With the grand mahogany staircase and state-of-the-art kitchen, it is the stuff of glossy magazines and real-estate dreams. It is their sanctuary.
So when Ted’s inheritance runs out and he makes a bad investment, they panic. How can they protect their beloved home and enviable lifestyle?
The answer is obvious. Or at least, it is obvious to Jill and Ted. The death of one wealthy family member—from whom they stand to inherit millions—could solve all their problems. Together, they will get away with murder.
As long as they trust each other.
As long as neither makes a mistake.
As long as there are no surprises…

Great choice, Jo. I’ve already added it to my tbr!
Thanks, Nicki💜 I thought you might.
I haven’t read a book by her in ages for some reason, but I like the sound of this one.
I’ve a few I own but haven’t had a chance to get to yet.
Great choice! I have this on my TBR as well.
Thanks, Jodie💜 I hope we both enjoy!
Oh I hadn’t seen this one but I like both the author and narrator.

Same for me! Loved seeing LaVoy attached.
I think I’ve read or listened to all her books, so am definitely waiting for this one. I will have to wait until it is published and get it from the library. I hope we both enjoy it when we get to it, Jo.
Thanks, Carla💜 This will be a library rental for me, too.
I’m looking forward to this one as well!
I still have a couple from her backlist to read.
I’m honestly SO behind when it comes to her backlist! Somehow I always end up overlooking her books on my TBR, even though I have enjoyed the ones I did read.
