The Sister-In-Law
by Pamela Crane
Synopsis:
THE WIFE: It was a whirlwind romance and a shotgun wedding, but weeks into their marriage, Candace realizes that moving in with Lane also means moving in with his possessive, uptight sister. And there’s not room for three in this marriage…
THE SISTER-IN-LAW: Harper is the kind of woman who cooks homemade meals and dusts under the furniture – it’s the least she can do for her brother as he’s been sharing his home with her and the kids since her husband’s mysterious death. But then Candace showed up, and started asking questions…
THE HUSBAND: All Lane has ever wanted is a white-picket-fence life. The wife. The two-point-five kids. The happy little family. And everything seemed to be falling into place with Candace until Harper’s jealous streak got in the way, again. But choosing between his sister and wife will be costly – and knowing Harper, the price could be blood…

Review:
Thank you to Avon Books UK and Netgalley for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions expressed in this review are my own.
Wow! I really freaking enjoyed this book! There were so many plot twists, some of which I did see coming but some good ones I didn't expect at all. The writing was absolutely fantastic. I was drawn into this story from the start and stayed captivated on the edge of my seat until it was over. I ended up finishing this book in two sittings, I didn't want to put it down the first time but I just couldn't stay awake. It wrapped up so beautifully. There was no drag or over explanation of what happened after, it was literally just enough.
So let's talk characters. I didn't like any of them. I thought they were fleshed out enough so that I got to get to know each one a little bit but I still didn't know who I could trust and who I couldn't. We get the story from the perspective of Candace, the wife; Lane, the husband; and Harper the sister-in-law. I loved seeing into each one of their perspectives. Each character voice was distinguishable. Floating back and forth from perspective was effortless and smooth.
At this point I feel like I'm just gushing, which I totally am. however I'm going to leave this here with this final thought. I've never read Pamela Crane before but dammit I can't wait to devour another one of her books.
