I found this book to be an enjoyable read. The story kept me engaged from start to finish and had some moments that really stood out. Overall, it offered an entertaining reading experience.

This book was messed up in all the right ways! Everyone was playing everyone. I enjoyed the narration and listened in one sitting! The twists and turns were interesting and I was invested from start to finish!

They say revenge is a dish best served cold, or is it sweet? Necessity and revenge can be a deadly combination. In this story, everyone is hiding something, some more than others. Secrets and deception combined with a desire for retribution prove to be dangerous. Numerous unexpected twists and shady characters make this an intriguing tale where the line between victim and villain is blurry. The narrator brilliantly brings the characters to life adding suspense and intensity. Thank you, NetGalley and HighBridge Audio for my audiobook.

This is not as twisty as I would have liked - saw a lot of ir coming but enjoyed the pacing and the tying up at the end. Glad I waited for it! Very good narration.

Thank you to Highbridge Audio for an ALC of this novel. Here are my thoughts!
Kim is a waitress working at a fancy country club when she finds herself thrown in to a crazy situation. Her dog is sick and a stranger offers her money to poison and kill someone. Desperate, she has to take this into consideration to save her pup. She heads to work with the intention to poison and she realizes it’s her ex-boyfriend and she hesitates. But then his fiancée PJ drops dead. Clearly there is more going on than Kim realizes, and she’s in for a ride!
I loved listening to this thriller. Emma Love knocks the narration out of the park, especially for PJ’s parts. It was the perfect sassy narration that fit her character perfectly. It often had me laughing out loud. I enjoyed the way the story unravelled with multiple POVs and just the level of complexity in these crimes.
There were so many twists with a fairly small cast. The drama just kept being thrown on the fire until everything just blew up. The final resolution was satisfying and unexpected. I found it hard to put this one down as it was just so fun to listen to. Perfect for summer truly!
The charcters didn’t feel like the stereotypical rich country club people but they were all more complicated than that. They all had some good and bad to them, but most of them I disliked but I enjoyed disliking them.
This is a great summer time thriller that is quick but so so fun! Can’t recommend it enough.

Jaime Lynn Hendricks is one of my favorites, and she proves why yet again with Their Double Lives, a fun, entertaining, and twisty read that I got through in one sitting. It started with a bang and was fast-paced the entire way through, keeping me on my toes guessing what in the world was going on with these people. Morally grey characters get me every time. I mean, I would do anything for my dogs also, so Kim I could relate to, but these other folks? They were just crazy. HA! The audio for this was excellent as well. I really enjoyed reading it this way. I thoroughly enjoyed this one and absolutely recommend it.
Thank you to Scarlet Suspense and Highbridge Audio for the copies to review.

Really liked the narration and different point of views. Lots of character that are easy to dislike and the suspense is top notch !

I loved how this audiobook grabbed my attention from the beginning. Great suspense and mystery was created early on that made for a compelling and interesting listening experience.
The narration made it easy to follow the story as the narrator did such a good job creating distinctly different voices for each character.
Loved how this was a fresh feeling thriller with a unique setting and storyline. I’ve read a lot of thrillers lately that all seem very similar in plot, setting and characters. Their Double Lives is definitely a must read for the thriller genre, great premise, intriguing characters and a plot that is well executed with some fun twists and a satisfying ending.

I really enjoyed Their Double Lives. The story is engaging with well developed characters, and Hendricks does a great job balancing suspense and emotional depth. The narration adds an extra layer of intensity, keeping me hooked from start to finish. My only minor quibble is that some plot twists felt a bit predictable, but overall, it’s a solid listen that I’d recommend to fans of thrillers with a psychological edge. Definitely worth a try if you're into character driven mysteries!

This book was very enthralling, I couldn't wait to see what happened next and who was behind all the evil plots., Nice work!

This was a quick easy to read, thriller with a lot of twists and turns. it had me engaged all the way through and I read it very quickly,. There were dual timelines, but I found it to be a little confusing. Sometimes I had a hard time keeping the timeline straight. There were so many twists that it felt overwhelming at times and not everything was clearly explained which with disappointing. I felt that the narrator did a really good job, especially considering she had multiple POV’s to narrate. Overall, I would say is the middle of the road thriller that I enjoyed while reading, but it left me with some questions.

I have read a couple of Jaime Lynn Hendricks' books and enjoyed them very much. This one is my favorite. It begins with a waitress at a country club who has trouble making ends meet. She also has a sick pup whom she adores. She needs money for the pup's surgery. She is approached by a mysterious man on the phone who offers her money if she slips something into one of the guests' drinks. To complicate things, the guest is an ex of hers. I listened to this nail-biter in one day. The writing was sharp, and the narration was well done.

A country club murder plot, biting class commentary, and enough twists to keep you flipping pages—Their Double Lives is a darkly fun ride. Jaime Lynn Hendricks dishes up drama with a sharp edge, skewering the wealthy elite while pulling you into a world of secrets, scandals, and plans to poison cocktails.
Kim, a down-on-her-luck waitress, gets offered a pile of cash to poison a club member—who just happens to be her ex. From there, things spiral deliciously out of control. The twists are juicy (even if I saw the stranger reveal coming), and the satire hits just right!
If you like thrillers that know how to smirk while being sinister, this one’s for you.

3.5 stars
This was a fun, quick and entertaining read. I will say that I didn’t connect well with the characters, and the plot motivation seemed to strain credibility. This was a bit of a distraction at times, but over all I did enjoy the book.
I paired the audio and print versions, and really enjoyed this type of immersive reading. The audio production was very well done.
My thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Jaime Lynn Hendricks is a new auto buy author for me. I was so excited to get an advance copy of the audiobook of this one. It is a terrific mystery/thriller - the perfect summer read!
Kim is a graphic designer who works as a waitress at a country club to make extra money. Her dog needs a life-saving procedure, and Kim is in a bind. She receives a mystery call for a job - put a pill into a customer’s drink, and her financial troubles will be resolved. But when she recognizes the target and things go in another direction, Kim has herself a situation.
This thriller is fun! The reader is given multiple POVs. The author keeps us off balance throughout the story. There are flashbacks, but you will never be lost. The writing is tight, with no fluff. It truly is the perfect summer thriller.
Thank you to NetGalley and HighBridge Audio for the opportunity to listen to this one! Emma Love does a phenomenal job narrating this one. It is out now, and I highly recommend it!

The character development in this story was fantastic. All the different POV's and different time frames had me trying to put all the pieces together and by the end I was shocked. This was an easy, fact-paced story that kept me hooked throughout its entirety. Revenge was taken to a whole new level and I loved every second of it.

This was a great thriller! I was definitely on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen. I think this would make the perfect #summerread or #beachread I really loved the use of dual timelines and multiple POVs.
There are so many layers to this story - I can’t tell you anything specific about the plot, but I can say I highly recommend going in blind! There are some really interesting and horribly behaved characters. There are also some great twists and turns and this book kept me guessing until the end.
I was immediately rooting for Kim - I get it, I love my animals and would do almost anything for them. But when she is asked by a stranger to poison a member of the country club she works at, she finds herself in the middle of something she doesn’t understand. She is shocked to find out the member is her old high school boyfriend and she just can’t go through with it…but someone still dies that day…
