Lots of drama and twists that will keep you entertained with characters that are extremely strange, underhanded and devious. I really think it is best to just go into this one without knowing too much more but be prepared for a very rocky ride.

Thank you to Netgalley the author and publisher for an ARC, all opinions are my own.

WOW! What a ride! I was hooked on this book from the very first page as Eve, a young, naive and pregnant woman finds herself alone in the world, after the death of her boyfriend in a car accident. When Eve is offered a job as a Nanny to a wealthy couple on a private island, it seems like a dream come true, but Eve has no idea what she is walking into and it's more complex, thrilling and twisted than I could ever have imagined!

It's difficult to say too much without venturing into spoiler territory, but this book is no ordinary thriller and Christopher and Julia Hygate, Eve's employers, have SO many secrets!

Twist after fast-paced twist had me reeling and it didn't let up until the mind-blowing epilogue.

5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Rose Carlyle and Text Publishing for an ARC in return for an honest review.

Read this on holiday and it was the perfect beach read, held my interest and wasn't too taking. It's a pretty standard thriller with nothing new but it was good nonetheless. Beachy trash perfect to escape with

Eve Sylvester is young and broke and needs a job fast. After years of foster homes, backpacking and a sailing trip across the Pacific Ocean, she has lost contact with friends and family. She is alone, desperate—and pregnant. Then she meets Julia and Christopher Hygate, a charming and glamorous couple, who seem to have the perfect life: loads of money and a breathtakingly beautiful mansion on a remote Tasmanian island. They make her a lucrative offer. Eve can move into their empty summerhouse and take up a very easy job. Eve thinks she’s fallen on her feet—she has found a home, and her child will grow up in the aptly named Paradise Bay. But some things about the job don’t add up. Why must Eve stay out of sight? Why have the Hygates employed an ex-con to run their yacht-charter business? And what about the mysterious boats sailing in and out of the Hygates’ private marina? Has Eve made a deal with the devil? It’s too late to ask questions. Eve is already in far too deep.
It was mind blowing.
Thanks to NetGalley and Text Publishing for giving me an advance copy.

Obsessed with thrillers at the moment even though I read them with my heart in my mouth most of the time! Couldn’t put this one down and read it all in one go!
Every single time I thought it was ok again there was another twist or another turn that changed everything and even right at the end there was one last twist!
I did thoroughly enjoy the suspense once it was over but there were a few times during I thought I was going to put the book down and not pick it back up! Clearly the making of a good thriller!
There could be some triggers in here for people so deffo check them before you read!

Snared by the description, I jumped in.

Eve and Xander have been sailing the world, Eve joined Xander after his girlfriend left, and the end up very much in love. They return to terra firma and Xander is about to introduce Eve to his family when tragedy strikes. Eve is now alone and pregnant, from here it’s a wild ride of the worst decisions she could possibly make and a very slow burn plot where Eve continually puts herself in more danger than you may have thought humanly possible.

I couldn’t get on with the character of Eve, she seemed bereft of instinct, sense and survival. While the plot was slow, it could easily have been rescued by a protagonist with something about them.

Not for me, but good for anyone who enjoys a thriller with a completely hopeless victim.
