Thanks for the review edition.

The dynamic duo did it again. I absolutely devoured this book. It was incredible, kept me guessing, and I just sped through the minutes.

Easy ready which is hard to put down! Lots of twists to keep the reader interested and wanting more. Love how the authors describe each and every detail leaving the readers imagination to grow

This book was absolutely redemption worthy for me! While maybe not a 5 star review, it was still a very entertaining novel and absolutely kept me interested and guessing! Marissa and Matthew are the typical upper middle class suburban couple with what appears to be everything going for them—-until it’s not. They enter into counseling where they meet Avery. First of all I would not be going to a non licensed and controversial therapist if I needed couples counseling however I thought the authors did a great job setting readers up for buying into Avery’s program. I think most readers would be like wait there are some red flags here but in this book you can sort of be like ‘ok ya makes sense’ so kudos to the authors for getting me to buy into this part of the story.

After that everything really fell into place for me until the last little bit go the book which is why it ended up being a 4 star review for me rather than a 5 star review. I don’t want to give away any details but the ending felt like it wrapped up a little too quickly for me. It could have been a little more refined and polished in my opinion but overall it was a fitting ending. If you enjoy domestic thrillers this book very much needs to be on your list for spring/summer reading! I really enjoyed it even if the ending wasn’t as impactful as I was hoping.

I absolutely loved this thriller very fast paced and everything I have been looking for in a book. I highly recommend it.

A super book that was so twisty with a superb storyline. I was utterly hooked from, the very start. Can’t wait to read more from this authors.

"Wealthy Washington suburbanites Marissa and Matthew Bishop seem to have it all—until Marissa is unfaithful. Beneath their veneer of perfection is a relationship riven by work and a lack of intimacy. She wants to repair things for the sake of their eight-year-old son and because she loves her husband. Enter Avery Chambers.

Avery is a therapist who lost her professional license. Still, it doesn’t stop her from counseling those in crisis, though they have to adhere to her unorthodox methods. And the Bishops are desperate.
When they glide through Avery’s door and Marissa reveals her infidelity, all three are set on a collision course. Because the biggest secrets in the room are still hidden, and it’s no longer simply a marriage that’s in danger."

Well, that was intense. Sarah Pekkanen and Greer Hendricks outdid themselves with this collaboration. They slowly, intricately built the plot, giving the reader clues, crumb by crumb.

Just the story of Avery and her unorthodox methods as a therapist (actually now a consultant as she lost her license due to said unorthodox methods) would have been intriguing enough. Add in Marissa and Matthew (the Golden Couple) and all of their secrets and problems and the fact that Avery is being threatened by big pharma to disclose the name of her source because her anonymous tip to the FDA about a trial coverup wasn’t in fact so anonymous and you have a very interesting and suspenseful novel that just seems to get more and more convoluted the more you listen. One of their best yet and I have loved all their previous books.

This was a page turner and a great suspense novel by the sister duo. If you liked their previous novels, you will like this one also. The narration kept me intrigued, wanting to hear more.
Thank you #NetGalley for audiobook.

Sadly I dnfed this book, couldn’t get into the narrator. Willing to read it in its authentic form to see if it was just the narrator.

A domestic thriller by two author’s who continue to collaborate well. All of their books are great. Lots of twists!

I just reviewed The Golden Couple by Greer Hendricks; Sarah Pekkanen. #NetGalley

“You can never truly know what is inside another persons heart or head.”

Marissa and Matthew Bishop seem to have it all—until Melissa cheats on Matthew. Wanting to repair their marriage that has lost its intimacy, Melissa enlists therapist Avery Chambers. But Avery has lost her professional license to practice, so her methods are a bit unorthodox. Can Avery get to the root of their marital troubles, or is she in over her head?

“Casting aside the filters that constrained me when I was a therapist is so deliciously freeing.” ~Avery

Umm why did I wait so long to listen to this?! I decided to start it, even though it’s been out for quite awhile, and WOW! I was sucked in from the very first chapter. I actually stopped listening to my current book to finish this one. Sometimes the hype is real, guys!

This book is full to twists and every single character is a bit devious, so you’re not quite sure who to believe or root for. The audiobook has two narrators, one each for Marissa and Avery, and both are fabulous. I always find dual narrators really help to differentiate characters when listening to a book. They brought these ladies to life and I just couldn’t stop listening! I had to know how this would end. The Golden Couple is up for Best Mystery & Thriller in the @goodreads awards too. 👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you to Netgalley, Macmillan Audio, St. Martin’s Press, and the author for the ALC in exchange for an honest review.

I listened to this ARC on audible and honestly, Greer Hendricks, Sarah Pekkanen's book being read by Marin Ireland (et. al) was the greatest gift! I've read a number of Hendriks and Pekkanen's books now and with each new story, I keep thinking I've figured out their plot twist mechanisms. But each time I get into a new book of theirs, I'm royally hurled off course, as was the case here with The Golden Couple. If you're a fan like I am of plots circling around dysfunctional relationships and rich people behaving badly, this book is for you. Oh and I thought I'd hate that it was based on this therapist's secret to success plan to help Matthew and Marissa get through their marital troubles, but right off the bat you discover this psychologist is NOT NORMAL. A great brain escape. Thanks for the preview copy and early audio access, St. Martin's Press!

The Golden Couple was an interesting read by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. It pushed the boundaries of a couple and what they will do to keep their family together.

No relationship is perfect—no matter how perfect some may seem. Every couple has both laughter and struggles. And in the audio edition of The Golden Couple by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, one couple’s struggles and secrets come to light after one indiscretion sends them to counseling...

I reviewed this one everywhere, but completely forgot to add it here.

Let’s be real, there are a lot of these kind of domestic thrillers. They can get a bit redundant. I found this one to be original and engrossing. I was pulled in from the start and read it so quickly. I’m very excited to read more from this author. Thank you so much for the advanced copy.

Author duo Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen do it again. These thriller writers always get me with the plot twist and The Golden Couple wasn’t any different. I spent the entire novel trying to figure out “who dunnit” and I was wrong with every single guess.

In The Golden Couple, everything isn’t as it seems for Marissa and Matthew Bishop who seem to be the perfect couple who has it all. This picture-perfect marriage seems to have it all until Marissa hires a therapist, Avery, to help her and Matthew with their relationship

This was a really good book. I couldn't put it down. It had all the elements of a mystery thriller that I love.

Another effortless page turner from this fantastic domestic suspense thriller duo, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen, The Golden Couple grabbed me from the start and kept me guessing right to the end.

Deceptively devious and so cleverly written, this mystery is packed with infidelity, secrets and lies, so much so that the relationship lines between the unreliable narrators and unlikable characters quickly blurr making it difficult to figure out what the who was what! Of course the narration by Karissa Vacker and Marin Ireland was absolutely amazing. I really have enjoyed this author duo and look forward to picking up anything else they may write together.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher, Macmillan Audio for providing me an advanced listening copy to read and review. As always I appreciate the opportunity.

3.5 rounded up to 4 ⭐️ From me for this one!

THIS BOOK!! It hooked me from the very beginning. I really enjoyed how fast-paced and interesting the story remained throughout. The narrators were great!

While I thought the book was a bit predictable, it still had enough little twists that I didn’t know what the end would be. One interaction towards the end gave me goosebumps. The narrator was easy to listen to. I read every Greer and Sarah book and this one didn’t disappoint. This is a four star!

Thank you to the publisher for allowing me to listen to an advanced copy.
