Her Name Was Rose - Claire Allan

Blurb
Her name was Rose. You watched her die. And her death has created a vacancy.

When Emily lets a stranger step out in front of her, she never imagines that split second will change her life. But after Emily watches a car plough into the young mother – killing her instantly – she finds herself unable to move on.

And then she makes a decision she can never take back.

Because Rose had everything Emily had ever dreamed of. A beautiful, loving family, a great job and a stunning home. And now Rose’s husband misses his wife, and their son needs a mother. Why couldn’t Emily fill that space?

But as Emily is about to discover, no one’s life is perfect … and not everything is as it seems.

Review
This novel follows Emily as she embarks on stepping into the shoes of the seemingly perfect Rose but "is the grass always greener?", can anyone really have it all? We gain flashbacks of Rose's life throughout the novel and these glimpses reveal something is amiss. Expertly creating an increasing sense of foreboding for Emily and the trouble she has found herself wrapped up in, Allan had me hooked from the first page and some of those twists I did not see coming! Brimming with secrets, jealousy, and lies - look no further for your binge-worthy summer psychological thriller.

Thanks to Netgalley and Avon Books UK for sending me this in exchange for an open and honest review.
