Plot twist queen is at it again! This book is everything I wanted from a sequel, I have truly nothing bad to say. I loved every second of it, and couldn’t put it down!

I really started to enjoy this book about 50% in, which I did not feel with the first book in this series . I found the plot of this book harder to get into as I did not feel hooked into the drama as easily, maybe because I already knew the characters and had a sense of who was and was not trustworthy and likable. I of course enjoyed Rose’s writing as much as I did in TPM, but the plot didn’t feel as twisty as TPM. I was able to predict the ending fairly easily given the ending of the first book, but I did enjoy the ending in the fact that I wanted to know how everything played out and who we could trust and who we couldn’t. I honestly did not care for the Sheriff’s POV chapters, it felt like more telling than showing related to the investigation. What could be worked better was letting the investigation unfold from the perspectives of Sarah, Bob, and our mystery character, as I found those chapters much more engaging, especially the mystery character. Having the mystery character throw in more hints or red herrings for the reader may have been more engaging than hearing so frequently about the details of the actual investigation. Overall I did enjoy parts of this book, it just could have had used some slight changes to make the reader think a little more about what might happen.

After absolutely loving The Perfect Marriage, I was thrilled when I found out that Jeneva Rose was writing a sequel and even more thrilled when I received an advanced copy of it!

The Perfect Divorce is a perfect continuation of Sarah Morgan’s story. I think knowing what happened in The Perfect Marriage makes this book a little bit more predictable, because you know the type of people that the main characters are but I still loved reading this book. It was a quick, easy read and I could not put it down. I can’t wait to see what is next for Sarah Morgan!

Thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for providing me with an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

I loved “The Perfect Marriage” so I was super excited to read this one. In *The Perfect Divorce*, Jeneva Rose delivers a sharp, gripping, and emotionally charged narrative that will captivate readers from the first page to the last. This contemporary thriller takes the often-stigmatized topic of divorce and spins it into a compelling, high-stakes drama that explores love, betrayal, and the boundaries of trust.

The story follows the tumultuous relationship between a married couple, whose divorce, rather than being a simple legal process, becomes a high-stakes game of cat and mouse. Rose’s prose is sleek, easy to follow, and filled with enough twists to keep readers on the edge of their seats. The characters are expertly drawn—flawed, complex, and fully human.

The plot twists in this novel are nothing short of thrilling. Just when you think you’ve figured out where the story is heading, Rose pulls the rug out from under you with a brilliant twist that leaves you rethinking everything you thought you knew. The unpredictability of the storyline makes this book nearly impossible to put down, and the clever way the author weaves in subtle foreshadowing ensures that when the surprises arrive, they feel earned and satisfying.

While the story itself is a rollercoaster of suspense, it’s Rose’s ability to capture the psychological depth of her characters that truly sets *The Perfect Divorce* apart. Whether you’re familiar with the pain of a breakup or not, you’ll find yourself fully invested in the fates of the characters and their emotional journeys. It’s a novel that speaks to anyone who has ever questioned what happens when a relationship breaks down, or what lengths people might go to in the pursuit of freedom—or revenge.

In short, *The Perfect Divorce* is a thrilling, emotional ride that’s well worth the read. Jeneva Rose has crafted a novel that’s as intelligent as it is entertaining, and it will undoubtedly keep you hooked until the very last page. If you’re a fan of psychological thrillers with a deep emotional core, this book is an absolute must-read.

Sarah Morgan is back.

This time she is married to Bob Miller with a young daughter. She has recently caught him cheating and has filed for a divorce. He has not been agreeing to the divorce in their few meetings.

Soon, the woman he cheated with goes missing with incriminating texts for Bob. Then the woman who cuts his hair goes missing -- right after his late-night appointment with her. A little too coincidental, huh?

I have to admit that it was fun to see Bob start to lose it and him to think he had the upper hand with Sarah.

There is a lot going on in this book. Too much. I really didn't get the connection of the ex-sheriff's case and what it had to do with this story. Plus, this whole thing is so far-fetched. You really need to suspend disbelief at the end.

Thank you to Blackstone Publishing and NetGalley for an advanced readers copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Jeneva does it again! Jenevas books always keep me captivated and on the edge of my seat. There's always a gripping twist I didn't see coming-no matter how hard I tried to guess.
I can't wait to be able to share her latest work with my patrons at the library. They are going to love this, just as much as I do.

Jeneva does it again!!! I truly could not put this one down - except when I was forced to adult & go to work & parent my dear sweet child who wouldn’t let me just read this book.

The twists, the turns… This book will keep you guessing & wanting more until the very end.

Eleven years ago, we witnessed the investigation of Adam Morgan and the murder of his mistress. Sarah, big-time attorney and his wife at the time, has since moved on from Adam, starting a family of her own with Bob. It would seem history does tend to repeat itself, when Sarah discovers Bob cheated on her. With no time for that BS again, she files for divorce. As if that wasn’t stressful enough, new information comes to light regarding DNA that was omitted from Adam’s case. And what’s worse? The woman Bob slept with has suddenly gone missing. Prince William County PD and Sarah Morgan find themselves locked into yet another case together, whether they like it or not.

This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year! I love Jeneva Rose, and The Perfect Marriage was one of the books that got me back into reading. I was ecstatic to see the continuation of this story. There were twists and turns around every corner. Despite the multiple plots within the story, Jeneva was able to tie them all back together with her brilliant mind. There were dashes of comedy, her signature humor of course. I had a feeling how it could round out, but there were still a few things that left my jaw on the floor. This was a fun, quick read and I’m glad to hear this story may not be over just yet 👀

A sequel that is as good as the first book. Sarah is back again and as manipulative as ever. Thus book picks up right where the first one ends and is fully of twists and turns that will keep you on the edge. I liked the introduction of new characters and twists to the plot that keep me guessing till the end. I may like this more than the original.

Jeneva did it again!! I've been dying to read this one. Thank you, NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing, for the ARC copy. Jeneva is one of my all-time favorite authors, and The Perfect Divorce proves exactly why. Just when I thought I had it all figured out—bam! That twist hit me like a truck. No one delivers jaw-dropping turns quite like Jeneva. The pacing was spot on, the tension kept building, and every chapter had me saying “just one more.” If you're into thrillers that mess with your head in the best way, this one’s a must-read.

"The Perfect Divorce” by Jeneva Rose was a fun ride! Needless to say, you should definitely read “The Perfect Marriage” before reading this one. There will be major spoilers otherwise.

In "The Perfect Divorce", Sarah Morgan is back and as manipulative as ever. Without giving too much away, the story takes place eleven years after Sarah Morgan defended her husband, Adam, for murdering his mistress. She has since moved on, remarried, had a daughter, and continues to have a successful career, but a new betrayal and old secrets come to light, and in true Jeneva Rose fashion, chaos ensues. It’s told from multiple POVs, which kept me reading and fully immersed in the story. I really enjoyed that the chapters were short, engaging, and highly entertaining. Being back in this world, catching up with old characters was so fun! Jeneva Rose always manages to pack in ridiculously exciting twists and turns. 

A big thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for this ARC.

I had the great honor of receiving an ARC of The Perfect Divorce by Jeneva Rose thanks to NetGalley. I really enjoyed this book which utilized multiple POV to really bring the reader into the story. It was really neat to get inside the head and each character as a way to understand their motives and actions. The first few chapters were a little hard to follow the timeline of events, but after that it was all truly enjoyable. With the continuation of the storyline from the Perfect Marriage, Geneva Rose yet again shows the reader the lengths that her twisted and at times evil characters will go to get what they want.
I highly recommend The Perfect Divorce if you enjoy:

Multiple POVs
Psychological Thrillers/mysteries
Plot twists
Crime Scene investigation
Cold Cases being opened
Fast paced

If you enjoyed the Perfect Marriage at all, then you have to continue the story with The Perfect Divorce.

I will share reviews of this ARC Audiobook on my Bookstagram, Barnes and Noble, Amazon.com and Goodreads.

Sad to report this was just not as good as the first book. It was hard top remain engaged and I was just over Sarah. However, I did still enjoy the book and will probably read the next.

The perfect continuation from last novels The Perfect Marriage, we follow Sarah and Bob as their marriage dissolves after Bob has a one time affair. The twists and turns with all the familiar players along with some new blood makes this read one to remember. Bob seems to feel that he's Sarah's equal after what happened to Adam and Kelly, but just how many steps ahead can he be from his beloved wife when people start disappearing including the mistress at hand? I love Jeneva's ability to spin a tale that makes your head explode, I literally couldn't put this read down until I got the answers I wanted and still left it with so much more that I needed to know!
