Summary

Jade and Cam Lasky are by all accounts a happily married couple, with two adorable kids, a spacious home and a rapidly growing restaurant business。 But their world is tipped upside down when Jade is confronted by a masked home invader。 As Cam scrambles to gather the ransom money, Jade starts to wonder if they’re as financially secure as their lifestyle suggests, and what other secrets her husband is keeping from her。

Cam may be a good father, a celebrity chef and a darling husband, but there’s another side he’s kept hidden from Jade that has put their family in danger。 Unbeknownst to Cam and Jade, the home invader has been watching them and is about to turn their family secrets into a public scandal。

With riveting twists and a breakneck pace, My Darling Husband is an utterly compelling thriller that once again showcases Kimberly Belle's exceptional talent for domestic suspense。

Wow! What a book! This had me at the edge of my seat from page one to the very last word! Such a page turning, heart pounding read! And Beatrix is a fire cracker! Loved her sass! Jade was such a headstrong mama bear and i loved her character as well。 And while the book paints the husband, Cam in a light that isn’t flattering。。 as secret after secret gets revealed, i still rooted for him。 Such a riveting book with so many twists and turns!

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 This is a fast paced, white knuckle, quick read。 The narrators of the audiobook do a wonderful job, so if you need an audiobook this would be a good one。 This story makes you wonder how many are living beyond their means, though live their life as if they have not a care in the world。 Don’t assume that children don’t see and hear what’s going on around them, because they do!

My Darling Husband is a story about Jade, Cam, and their children Beatrix and Baxter (the Bees as their parents call them)。 The book opens with a total loss fire at Cam’s most successful steakhouse。 While he is dealing with that a stranger breaks into his house and holds Jade and the Bees captive。 His demand is a very specific amount of money which Cam has until 7pm that day to bring to the house or the stranger will kill Jade and the Bees。Talk about a great setup to a suspense novel!

The story is told from the present with Cam giving an interview to a reporter and from the past, the day of the fire and the home invasion。 I love dual timeline books as they normally provide background。 This dual timeline seemed to support the present more if that makes sense。My favorite character is Jade。 Jade is a fierce woman and mother and her primary goal throughout the story is to protect her children。 As a mother I can relate。 This story is so captivating, I had a hard time putting down it down。 Lies and secrets are revealed and makes you realize Jade does not know Cam as well as she thought she did。 。。。more

Who and why is this person after his family?This story wastes no time; the action gripped me right away when the masked intruder greets Jade and her children in their garage。 The the next few hours are told in the POV of Cam (who’s racing to scape together the $734,296 ransom), Jade (fierce, protective mama bear) and Sebastian, the masked intruder。 The Laskys are not as financially stable as it seems。 We also learn more through the Interview chapters, which occur after the invasion, as a news reporter interviews Cam about the events that took place on August 6th。 The plot is intense, terrifying and fast-paced。 There isn’t a major twist but the discoveries that are made as the hours tick by are suspenseful。 I would’ve loved more action at the end。 It’s pulse-pounding throughout and then…kinda halted at the conclusion。 All in all, I definitely recommend this edge-of-your-seat, compelling ride!Thank you @parkrowbooks and @kimberlybelle for my #gifted ARC in exchange for my honest review! 。。。more

Nicole Wuthering Vines

My oh my, this one was incredibly bingeable!! Domestic thrillers are one of my favourite sub genres and Belle did a remarkable job utilizing short but concise chapters to continually build the suspense! I also relished in the dual timelines alternating between the current day interview and the multiple POVs during the home invasion! Everything’s not always as glamorous as they seem and I secretly love watching the secrets spill! This is a fun and twisty page turner that you don’t want to miss!

Every parent's nightmare。 As a mother myself, the plot definitely grabbed my attention and had me invested in the story until the end! I just need to find out what would happen to Jade and the kids during these few hours they were hostage in their own home。 I think more importantly, I really want to know what would Jade do! There was a lot of tension in this story as the motive of the invasion unfolds gradually through the POVs of Jade, Cam and the intruder。 My favourite character was definitely the daughter, Beatrix。 In a nutshell, this is a must read!
