Too Good to Be True by Carola Lovering
3.0

Skye Starling has suffered from OCD since her mother passed away. It keeps her from having serious relationships until she meets Burke Michaels, and he can see past her issues. They start dating and have a whirlwind relationship and get engaged only a few months later. But Burke isn’t all he seems to be. In fact, he’s married to his high school sweetheart, Heather.

Too Good To Be True is told from three perspectives - Skye’s story, journal entries written by Burke, and Heather’s story from 30 years earlier.

There were definitely a lot of twists in this book, but unfortunately I figured out what was going on early into the story. I did think the writing was good though so that didn’t make me want to stop reading. I just wanted to see how it was going to end.

Speaking of the ending, that definitely let me down. I can’t say anything without posting spoilers, but I really wish this book ended differently.

A lot of people loved this book, and I can definitely see why. I would have given it a higher rating if I hadn’t figured out the biggest twists.

Thank you NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.
