I really liked the way this was written in multiple point of views and timelines as well as the setting of the book. All the twists throughout were great and I especially loved the one at the end.

Dual timeline story about a woman who begins to think that her husband who was presumed dead is really alive.

This story is told in a dual timeline. I enjoyed June’s timeline but I could never like Bev or her story. Towards the end the story got very confusing for me. I did finish the book but just don’t think it was for me.

Thank you Netgalley and Simon Schuster for the chance to read and review this book. There were parts that I really liked and I really wanted to love this book but for me the story just got too confusing.

Let me start by saying that I'm normally a HUGE fan of Laurie Elizabeth Flynn and really enjoyed The Girls Are All So Nice Here.

I don't want so spoil anything here, so I'll just tell you that I really enjoyed the alternating timelines and points of view, always wondering where the connections were about be made. Unfortunately, I could not stand either of the leads. Bev and June were both incredibly self-centered and, while I enjoyed the story, I don't think any of the characters were enjoyable to read.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

I didn't like this as much as I hoped. I'm all for that romance novel trope about the presumed dead husband or fiancé rising from the ashes, and was excited to see the trope used in a thriller setting. But I struggled to connect with the story. I wish the story had stayed in the present instead of having the 90s flashbacks. Flashbacks seem very trendy now but I don't think they improve every book.

I did really love The Girls Are All So Nice Here so I will definitely try Laurie Elizabeth Flynn's next book!

An awesome book that will make you think twice about walking down the aisle. I highly recommend this book and you won’t want to put it down!

Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher and the author, for an ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
I read & enjoyed Laurie Elizabeth Flynn's previous book, "The Girls Are All So Nice Here" so I was excited to read her newest book,"Till Death Do Us Part".
This book had an interesting plot with alot of twists that keep me guessing until the very end.
I enjoyed the dual timelines that Ms. Flynn used to tell the story.
My only complaint was that a major hanging thread was never resolved.
I'm excited to read what the author decides to write next.

this is a spooky tale about what happens when the past comes back to haunt you. I liked this one alright - it didn't have quite the suspense I was hoping for.

WOAH, the premise of this book is like worst nightmare vibes. I'm a sucker for mysteries and hidden pasts. I loved this and how the author wove it all together..

June’s new husband has drowned on their honeymoon. His body has never been found. Ten years later, she’s moved on and is engaged to a new guy. One day, she sees her dead husband watching her. Is he really dead or is she losing it? After some research, she discovers he lives in Napa Valley so she takes off, ready to confront him. What happens next leads us on many twists and turns as alternate storylines come into play. Though the characters are not very likeable, and this is more of a mysterious death, but not really a thriller = the book did keep me guessing until the very end.

Till Death Do Us Part by Laurie Elizabeth Flynn drew me in with the blurb. A woman who lost her husband during their honeymoon and she is now ready to move on with a new love years later. That is until she believes she sees her dead husband. We get two points of views, the present and the past in two different point of views that captivated me from start to finish. June loved her husband deeply; however, he has been gone a long time. She is ready to move forward and found a new love. But to her shock, she thought she saw her dead husband, but she couldn’t have, right? We are taken on a journey of unexpected twist and turns with a surprising ending. This was my first book by this author and I truly enjoyed it and am excited to read more from her in the future.

Happy reading!

It took me a while to digest and review this book. Within days of getting married June's husband goes for a swim and never comes back. His body is never recovered and she is left mourning a life with Josh she didn’t get to live. Years later, she is running a wine bar in Brooklyn and living life and planning on marrying Kyle. When out of nowhere she sees a picture of Josh. She is so sure it is him that she hops on a plane to cross the country to check it out. She is 100% sure it is him. The story is convoluted, messy, filled with full on deceit and other times with half truths, and an entire cast of manipulative people who wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them on the butt. The story is told in alternating chapters by June and Bev, her former mother in law. It’s a craftily woven story, but the ending left me shaking my head and what the heck did I just read. Truly out of left field to me, made zero sense and was kind of a let down. Liked the book until the disappointing (in my opinion) ending.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley.com in exchange for a fair and honest review.

To all my fellow wine lovers you need to add 𝐓𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐃𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡 𝐃𝐨 𝐔𝐬 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 by author Laurie Elizabeth Flynn to your TBR! This book had the perfect summer setting- mostly set at Napa Valley wine country and other beautiful vineyards!

Not only did the author create a perfect summery setting, she executed a non-stop drama filled plot that included a mystery as well! This story is far from a slow burn, the pace is fast, and ALOT is going on from page one!

I 100% recommend reading this one and it will be out next Tuesday- AUGUST 13th! I also really recommend her previous books as well especially 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐢𝐫𝐥𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐒𝐨 𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐞.

𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐎𝐏𝐒𝐈𝐒: “Ten years ago, June’s beloved husband drowned on their honeymoon, his body never found. Now, a decade later, June is finally ready to move on. She owns a natural wine bar in Brooklyn and is engaged to a patient, supportive man named Kyle. She’s excited to finally begin a new chapter in her life and start a family.

But out of the blue, she sees him—Josh, her first husband. Is this just a hallucination from the guilt June carries about finally moving on, or is it possible that her husband never died in the first place?

June tries to forget about this vision, chalking it up to grief and nerves, but soon enough, she stumbles across a website for a winery in Napa, and the owner in the photo is identical to her dead husband. With her upcoming wedding looming and a fiancé who’s already worried she hasn’t quite left her past behind, June secretly flies to Napa for answers. But she’s not prepared for all the secrets she’s about to unlock because everything she thought she knew about her first love is a lie.“

“On the vineyard, as in life, timing is everything.”

What happens when the husband you thought died years ago turns up alive? This was the question June found herself faced with. It’s been a decade since Josh drowned, and his body never turned up. She now owns her own business and is engaged to another man. But then she sees him, multiple times…her first husband. Is she hallucinating? Maybe he never actually died…June decides to find out answers, but is it safe? And is she ready for the truth?

I really enjoyed this one! It’s fast paced, spans a timeline of multiple years and is a dual POV book. It embodies love, loss, grief, jealousy, and the lengths people will go to in order to protect their family. There are tons of twists in this one! I kind of thought I knew where a little bit of it was going, but I was truly stunned with how it all ended! My only drawback from it being five stars for me, was just how compounded all the twists were at the end, if things had been spaced out a tad more with the ending feeling less rushed, I think it easily would have been five stars. I highly recommend this one if you are in the mood for a good thriller!

A special thank you to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for this eARC! Till Death Do Us Part is out now!

Edit, review:

This is a story about people who like wine and have bad personalities.

I loved the author’s prior book, so I was excited to read this one.. and much like wine and the dusty grape hills in Napa (seriously, it’s the most overrated place) it just wasn’t for me. There isn’t an enjoyable character to be found and I found myself hoping they would all drink a batch of mysteriously toxic all natural wine.

That being said if you like a little light mystery and enjoy wine, you might love this & it’s a testament to the author’s skill that I couldn’t stop reading. The audio was excellent- highly recommend the narration!

TIL death do us part is just as much a family drama as it is a mystery. June is finally starting to put together the pieces of her life after the drowning of her first husband, Josh. She is engaged to Kyle and has stopped hallucinating seeing Josh everywhere-even though the circumstances of his drowning always seemed suspicious to her, she is starting to leave her past behind. That is-until she sees Josh watching her from a distance one day.. is her husband alive or is her mind playing tricks on her? These questions lead her to return to Josh’s hometown in Napa to try to find the answers. In a dual timeline, we follow Josh’s parents, bev and David, at a critical
Point in their marriage. What do these two timelines have to do one another? June is caught in a murder mystery-while bevs timeline is more of a domestic drama, but both really impact the other and deepen the relationship with one another.
This was a page-turner and I was all in on this as the plot twisted. I would have rated this one higher had the ending not been slightly underwhelming. One of the final twists is very far-fetched, especially for a plot that felt more grounded. There also was a major hanging thread that was never resolved that is a huge plot point. However, those two gripes aside, this is a fast-paced and involving read.

Thanks to the publisher for providing the arc via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Wow, how do you deal with your dead husband being alive 10 yrs later.
You've moved on...
June is owner of a wine bar and engaged to be married. What do you do when you see a ad for a winery in California. The owner is a perfect match for her late husband. How can this be??? She has to find out and goes to California to find out...
Read it and find out what transpires.

This book is a wild ride and the whole time I thought I had it all figured out BUT boy was I wrong. I loved the twist and turns throughout this book. I enjoyed the dual POV and found it enriched the story along the way. I also appreciated the incorporation of wine and learning about the wine industry. Overall, this was a solid story!

I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This book was okay. I didn't realize that it was going to be two different points of view and timelines. I was fully expecting a mystery thriller and this was one timeline with a woman trying to figure what happened to her first husband and another timeline about a failing marriage and falling in love again. So in the end not really a mystery thriller more like a mystery romance.

The beginning was very slow for me so it took a little while to get into. I also hate how it ended, yes you find out what happened to her husband but I'm still not fully clear on what happened to Michelle. I also kind of hate how June doesn't have full closure from her first husband.

2.5 stars rounded up

June has finally moved on from the tragic death of her young husband, Josh, years ago. But while taking engagement photos with her fiancé, June is certain she sees Josh in the distance. Searching for answers, June takes off to Napa, hoping to find out more about Josh's mysterious death. As more details emerge, June begins to wonder what kind of man she had married.

Told in back-and-forth perspectives between present-day June and the past experiences of her mother-in-law Beverly, this suspenseful novel will keep you hooked until the very end.

TILL DEATH DO US PART by Laurie Elizabeth Flynn was a slow build full of twists and turns that left me completely off kilter.

Ten years ago, after a whirlwind romance and while on their honeymoon, June Emery lost her husband to drowning. Grieving her loss she thought she would never love again. But six years ago she met Kyle and as their wedding approaches she wonders if she is seeing her dead husband wherever she goes. Kyle feels like he can never live up to the wonders of Josh. After June sees of photo of a Napa Valley winery and zeros in on one of the people in the picture, Kyle reluctantly support her desire to go to Napa to investigate. Could the man in the photo be her beloved Josh? After all, his body was never found. The owner of a natural wine bar, June has the perfect excuse to visit the winery in an attempt to find out who the man in the photo really is.

When she gets to Napa Valley, June begins to learn a different side of her beloved Josh. Told in separate timelines, we learn the story of Josh’s family who were not present at their spur of the moment wedding. As one revelation leads to the next, June learns bits and pieces about the Josh she didn’t know. Could his past have led up to his eventual drowning? And what really happened on his parent’s winery all those years ago?

I really enjoyed this one. The writing was clear and concise which led to an enjoyable read. I could feel the sun on my face and hear the whisper of the breeze through the grapevine. I especially liked the dual timelines and learning of Josh’s childhood interspersed to show June’s discoveries. As in her previous novel, Ms Flynn delivers a puzzle, one piece at a time. I can’t wait to see where she takes me next.
