I was so excited to hear of a sequel to The Perfect Marriage. Jeneva did not disappoint. Will Sarah's secrets be revealed? Is her estranged husband hiding a very dark secret? I loved every moment.

Holy crap, she's at it again! Sarah Morgan is back and better than ever. Picking up where The Perfect Marriage left off, there are so many twists and turns and shady characters that you don't know who you can trust and you really have no idea if you can root for anyone to survive! Wild ride!

I wasn't sure how a sequel to The Perfect Marriage would work but it was fantastic! I really loved everything about this book. It kept me on the edge of my seat. the pace was great. The characters were well-developed. The tie-in to the original was on point. Highly recommend.

Thank you for the opportunity to read this arc.

All I can say is DAMN!!!! This book was by far the best sequel I have ever read. All these twists I didn't know which way it was going to go. Great work Jeneva Rose can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve.

Jeneva Rose knows how to write a perfect revenge story. The twisty turns made you think you knew what was coming next but it’s never what it seems.
Sarah Morgan is the ultimate example of a strong woman who is willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wants. It seems as though she may have met her match when her divorce becomes bitter from her second husband, Bob Miller. Reading The Perfect Marriage is a must in order to really grasp the lengths Sarah is willing to go to and just how determined she can be. But will Bob be her second victim or will he finally be one step ahead of THE Sarah Morgan?
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read Jeneva’s highly anticipated sequel. Happy Reading, Silly Gaggle!

Sarah Morgan has remarried and started a new family. When she finds out her husband, Bob, had a one night stand, she files immediately for divorce. Then Bob’s mistress disappears.

I really wish I had reread The Perfect Marriage before this one! It’s been a while and I didn’t remember a lot. I would reread it if it’s been a while. Sarah’s character is great in this. It’s fast paced and very suspenseful. Theres a lot of investigative procedure in this one, as one of the chapters is the Sheriff. If you loved the first book, you’ll want to read this one.

“Most of us have never had to make a choice between life and death. But I can tell you, once you do, once you’re forced to make that choice, it changes you forever.”

The Perfect Divorce comes out 4/15.

This is a REALLY good sequel!!!
I was able to figure out one of the twists early on, but it still held my attention and I flew through this one. Really enjoy Jeneva's storytelling and pacing with her thrillers!

I was thrilled to see a second story in the series, and once I started reading I was equally happy with myself for rereading The Perfect Marriage in preparation!

I would 100% recommend reading TPM first so that you can go into this one understanding who these characters are, what they have done, and what their motivations may be. This one picks up not long after TPM ended, and once again Sarah Morgan is having marriage problems. Her second marriage is about to end in divorce, but outside events start happening to shake everything up.

Sarah is such a devious and calculated character, one who I both can't stand but find horrifically entertaining. Her inner monologue made me laugh multiple times with her droll commentary about the other characters. Her interaction with her former MIL in particular had me cackling as these two terrible characters faced off.

The mystery at the heart of the story has plenty of twists and turns, with multiple storylines needing to come together in the end. It is darkly entertaining, and if you loved TPM you'll love this one too.

Thank you to Blackstone for the ARC.

What a wild ride! Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an early copy for review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I was super excited when I was approved for an arc of The Perfect Divorce because I loved its predecessor so much. I read it during the height of my thriller era, so it was exactly what I needed at the time.

I have since moved out of that era, but I still really enjoy this. The only reason I took off a star is because it really dragged for about 20 percent near the middle. It took me an entire week to finish this because of that which is basically unheard of for me.

However, the ending was great. Once we got to the 70% mark, it became pretty predictable (at least for me), but I still found it super entertaining. There were things I predicted, but there were things that I didn't see coming as well. Honestly, I'm just so impressed with Sarah and how she manages to get away with everything.

I could smell a set up for another book after the last chapter, and I was happy to read the confirmation of another book after reading the acknowledgments. I'm super excited to see how Sarah Morgan probably will get away with a few murders in the next book lol.

Wow—I just finished The Perfect Divorce by Jeneva Rose, and I am blown away! There’s no woman quite like Sarah Morgan—she is the ultimate villain. This story gave me strong YOU vibes, but with a sharper, more compelling feminine energy that no male character could ever replicate. I was completely hooked, and I have to say, I enjoyed this one even more than the first book. I can’t wait for more in this series! A solid 5 stars!

Jeneva Rose never disappoints. This book was so so good!
Sarah Morgan is back and she is just as scandalous as ever, always one step ahead of her prey. This time, it's her soon to be ex-husband, Bob Morgan.
Nothing gets passed this woman and just when you think she will finally get caught, Sarah proves you wrong once again. Will this book finally be the end for her and her shenanigans?
It's also cray that throughout the book, Jeneva's voice was constantly in my head as Sarah Morgan. Hmmmm... ;)
Thank you so much Netgalley and Blackstone Publishing for an advanced reader copy of this book from one of my all time favorite mystery/thriller authors!!

This was a crazy ride of a sequel to The Perfect Marriage following Sarah and Bob’s story. I enjoyed all of the twists and turns that continued to keep me guessing page after page!

Jeneva Rose’s The Perfect Divorce delivers a taut, fast-paced thriller where betrayal strikes twice for Sarah, now divorced from Bob after his infidelity mirrors Adam’s. With sharp twists, complex dynamics, and Rose’s knack for psychological manipulation, the sequel captivates despite leaning heavily on memories of The Perfect Marriage. Though some reveals feel forced, the tension and dark humor make it a compelling, binge-worthy read.

I thought this book was a wild ride! The book kept me engaged. I did not expect the plot twists. I thought the ending was shocking and I was guessing until the very end.
It was a quick read and a great sequel to the perfect marriage.

I loved The Perfect Marriage a few years ago, so I was excited to read this sequel. While it was still enjoyable, I felt it wasn’t as necessary or as good as the first. I didn’t think The Perfect Marriage needed a sequel, but I’m not upset it exists.

The book is fast-paced, action-packed, and features a strong main character. The story is exaggerated and far-fetched, but still fun. Sarah, the main character, reminded me of Amy from Gone Girl—she’s not exactly "likable," but I found myself rooting for her. If you can overlook the over-the-top plot, it’s an entertaining read. However, if you’re looking for something more realistic, this isn’t the book for you.

Well, thank goodness you do not have to have read the first book in this series to enjoy this one! The author does a great job of filling in the history in this sequel. The writing, plot, and characters are also much better! The ending was a bit convoluted, but at least it made sense. Sarah fails at being the sinister protagonist we all want to cheer for and maybe in the next book she will get her comeuppance? But she, and the other characters, were entertaining and made for a great escape! And I will read the next in the series!

I would give this 3.5 stars if I could! Sarah Morgan is such an interesting character and this book does an excellent job of balancing whether we should be rooting for her or against her. The writing is solid, and as the pieces all fall into place, every question of doubt vanishes. Great read.

⭐️ 10/10 Stars! ⭐️
Thank you, Jeneva Rose, for this absolute masterpiece! This was the perfect addition to The Perfect Marriage, and I could not put it down. Just when I thought I had everything figured out, the story took another sharp turn, leaving me completely stunned—again. From start to finish, this book was a rollercoaster of twists, tension, and mind-blowing revelations. The suspense was relentless, keeping me on edge with every chapter.

This book dragged for me for the first 50%, it took me days to read the first part. I was honestly a bit confused with who was who, then once it all made sense and I hit 60% of the book. I didn’t put it down. Sarah is vengeance is a skirt and heels. She’s the head bitch in charge and is matriculate to the very end. Suspenseful and surprising consistent with who we know Sarah to be.

I liked this one better than The Perfect Marriage and I thought the writing was better. A twisty thriller the author's fans will enjoy.
