Summary:
Gripping Thriller !!! Yes indeed !!
“For The Best” was a phenomenal mysterious novel that kept me on the edge of my seat wondering who-dun-it….. all the way up to the last chapter.
Vanessa Lillie has many unexpected and complex twisted situations throughout this novel that kept me wanting to turn the pages.
The ending was truly brilliant and I did not see it coming.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley in exchange for fair and honest review.
5 Stars.
