Twisting Suspense..
The wedding of the year? Quite possibly. A destination wedding proves eventful for three friends reuniting and one of them the bride. Twisting suspense with a pacy plot littered with twists and populated with a credible cast of characters, a well imagined setting and a fast moving narrative. Entertaining and intriguing.

Thank you to NetGalley and Avon Books UK for providing me with an advance copy of The Vow by Stefanie London in exchange for an honest review.

This was a truly gripping read from start to finish. The suspense was so well-paced that I found myself completely absorbed, always wanting to read “just one more chapter.” The twists and turns were clever and kept me guessing right up to the end, and I was genuinely surprised by how the story unfolded. The characters felt believable, the tension kept building, and the ending was both satisfying and unexpected.

A fantastic, twisty suspense novel that I would highly recommend to fans of psychological thrillers.

The Vow- three high school friends are coming together as one of them is getting married. Elle the movie star, Sofia the wedding planner and Rose the married mother. All of them share a secret that happened many years before while in high school and no matter how hard they try that secret is following them to a remote island for a wedding nobody will forget.

The plot of this book hooked me in, I love stories that are set in remote places with one way in and one way out. It gives it a more terrifying feel. The characters were easy to love or hate, some you hated more than others. I had a list of people I thought could be tormenting the three women and the person it ended up being was a shocker for me. In the end it was entertaining and a quick read!

Ellie, Rose and Sofia are bound by an invisible thread. A tragic set of events that occurred when they were still at high school.

Sofia is a high society wedding planner, Ellie a Hollywood star in the making, Rose, happy as a Mother and Wife should have been an Olympic athlete. But her sister Lucy is the one that gets to carry the torch.

Due to Ellie's Celebrity status her wedding is being held at an exclusive venue where the trio travel too a couple of days before they wedding to spend some time together.

It soon transpires that they are not alone, and someone knows what they did years ago, and is looking for revenge. Which is achieved by exposing each of their secrets in a very public way.

Ellie is accused of cheating on her Fiancé.

Sofia is accused of cheating on her husband on her wedding night, with Ellie's fiancé..

And Rose accused of doping prior to dropping from the Olympic circuit without a trace..

To an outsider, these things might be plausible. But these girls know each other inside out, they have already been through hell together. But who on earth would want to get revenge on them by wrecking a wedding?

But all is not as it seems, and each of them are in danger of unimaginable proportions.

A fast paced, easy read that has all the vibes of secrecy in friendships and trying to outrun the past.
I enjoyed the dual timelines and multiple narrators but didn’t really find anyone very likeable, which impacted on how I felt at the end, as I wasn’t that invested in the story.

I have been on a reading slump for a while and The vow really got me out of it. The vow is told in multiple POV'S and delves between the friendship of the 3 women, full of drama, suspense and secrets that are you trying to find out. An edge of your seat book that will is fast paced and really keeps you on your toes guessing. I would definitely recommend to anybody who enjoys psychological suspense thrillers, a fun read.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher Avon Books UK | Avon for the copy of this arc in exchange of my full honest review.

The Vow by Stefanie London was my first book by this author. It did not disappoint. I liked how the viewpoint was from each of the main characters-Ellie, Sofia, and Rose. I did have a hard time in the beginning keeping who was who, however I overcame this issue as I continued to read. Ellie is getting married which brings these three childhood friends together. Each is content with where their lives are. An incident from their childhood comes back to haunt them at the destination wedding. Many truths come out shocking the lives of all three women. I definitely didn’t anticipate the twist and turns of this story. This would be a great beach read for anyone looking for a good page turning thriller. Thanks to NetGalley and Harper Collins for allowing me to read this book.

A fast paced read that was addicting. I couldn't put it down and read in one sitting! The characters were flawed - I found them engaging and interesting. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good thriller!

This was entertaining, fast paced and i thought the twists were good. I thought this was a good thriller.

Three women. One secret. A wedding weekend no one will forget.

Twelve years ago, Sofia, Ellie, and Rose made a promise:

1. Never talk about that night.
2. Never tell a soul.
3. Take the secret to the grave.

Now they’re reuniting for Ellie’s glamorous destination wedding — and someone is making them pay.

Unsettling messages.
Ominous threats.
Whispers of what they did.
But how could anyone know?
They kept the vow… didn’t they?

Why You’ll Be Obsessed:

Glamorous girlhood secrets gone violently wrong
A chilling “I Know What You Did” vibe with a luxury twist
Tension between old friends so thick it could cut cake
Twists that explode right when you start feeling safe

This isn’t your average beach read — it’s elegant, dangerous, and impossible to put down.

Everyone has a past. But some secrets?
They don’t stay buried.

WOW!!!!! Hooked from the first page and read this book in one sitting… Full of tension and suspense. A real page turner, a domestic noir but OMG so much more!!

Simple premise which is well written and enjoyable.

Really good mystery elements, with relatable relationships. I love the unreliable characters and I read it quickly because I had to know more.

Three friends gather for the wedding of one of them in a remote location where things start to go awry. I’m not going to rehash the plot. The story is told from the three different points of view and two timelines, one current and the other when they were at school. I found in both timelines the characters were immature, nevertheless the relationship dynamics were very well written and the story was engaging. However I found that during the tight writing of the dramatic scenes where my pulse was increased, there was a tendency to over describe or insert unnecessary information which slowed down the drama somewhat.

I really enjoyed this book about three friends reunited for one of their weddings. Over the years their lives have taken them into very different paths Ellie is now a Hollywood superstar and the bride, Sofia is a successful wedding planner and praying that this wedding goes well and Rose is a mum after loosing her dream of being an Olympic medal winner. As kids something bad happened that they promised to never mention again but as the wedding preparations get under way it seems something strange is going on and none of their lives will ever be the same. This is a dark edge of your seat thriller that will keep you guessing till the last page and is not to be missed!!!

This story had a bit of everything in it that kept me reading, what on earth could happen next, I thought to myself. Who do you trust and believe? This is a gripping thriller from a very talented author whom I must admit I had not heard about before. I can understand why she is a best-selling American author.

This is a very good thriller that comes with plenty of twists that kept me guessing throughout. I was quickly taken in by the 3 main characters, and enjoyed the fast paced writing style.

An enjoyable read with some nice moments throughout.
Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for the opportunity to read this ARC.

Fast paced, twisty and chock full of tension. Loved it! Thank you to NetGalley, publishers and Stafanie London for the arc.

WOW I really enjoyed reading The Vow (Kindle Edition) a psychological suspense thriller by Stephanie London that was so exciting and fast paced. This is my first time reading a novel by the author.

This is a story about sisterhood, rivalry between siblings, betrayal, revenge and a revelation that will knock readers right off their seats.

The story goes back and forth from the present to 2013 twelve years ago when three school friends, Ellie, Sophia and Rose made a vow that only they know what they did until twelve years later Sophia receives an anonymous text saying "I vow to make you pay for what you did."

The Vow by Stefanie London is a gripping romantic thriller.
London expertly builds suspense throughout the story, layering in twists and turns that leave readers questioning the characters’ true intentions. The pacing is fast, with a well-structured plot that maintains tension, making it hard to put the book down once you start.
