(25)Woman on the Edge by Samantha M. Bailey

Thursday, March 26, 2020


It is a perfectly ordinary day for Morgan Kincaid when a complete stranger handed her a baby in the subway before jumping to her death. For the second time, Morgan is being questioned about a suicide.  Her husband recently committed suicide after defrauding people of millions of dollars. What is more baffling to Morgan is the fact that Nicole knew her name. She told her to take care of her baby.  And she stuck a post-it note in Morgan's pocket.  But why? Morgan finds herself in a hunt for the truth that introduces her to Nicole's handsome brother, Ben. But how can she trust Ben when Nicole clearly didn't trust him?

Woman on the Edge held a lot of promise and I was excited to read it.  Sadly, I figured out the "whodunit" pretty early.  That big reveal was very similar to another book that I read recently.  What I couldn't figure out was the connection between Nicole and Morgan.  How did Nicole know Morgan so well, but Morgan did not know her. The explanation was plausible, but not one that even crossed my mind. - The story is told from a "before"  and "after" kind of timeline.  Both of the main characters were the kind of characters that you could like.  And even kind of trust, even if that trust is a little misplaced.  CLICK HERE FOR SPOILERS - In the end, everything worked out, but not before some pretty intense situations.

Bottom Line - Woman On The Edge was a fast-paced, if not a tiny bit predictable.

The tag line is intriguing so it’s a shame it’s a bit predictable. Thanks for sharing your thoughts
