Criminal profiler in training (and newlywed) Jessie Hunt, 29, discovers that dark secrets lurk in her new suburban town; when a body turns up dead, she finds herself caught in the crosshairs of her newfound friends, her husband’s secrets, her serial killer caseload—and the secrets of her own dark past.
In THE PERFECT WIFE (A Jessie Hunt Psychological Suspense Thriller—Book One), Criminal profiler-in-training Jessie Hunt is sure she’s finally put the darkness of her childhood behind her. She and her husband, Kyle, just moved from a cramped downtown Los Angeles apartment into a Westport Beach mansion. Kyle’s promotion has them swimming in money. And Jessie is on the verge of getting her Master’s degree in forensic psychology, the last step in her dream of becoming a criminal profiler.
But soon after their arrival, Jessie begins to notice a series of strange developments. The neighbors—and their au pairs—all seem to be hiding secrets. The mysterious yacht club Kyle is desperate to join is rife with cheating spouses, and with troubling rules of its own. And the notorious serial killer being held at the psychiatric hospital where Jessie is completing her degree seems to know more about her life than is normal—or safe.
As her world starts to unravel, Jessie begins to question everything around her—including her own sanity. Has she truly uncovered a disturbing conspiracy buried within a sunny, wealthy Southern California beach town? Does the mass murderer she’s studying really somehow know the origin of her private nightmares?
Or has her tortured past finally come back to claim her?

Laura Heckle –
a plot twist worth the read.
The begging is somewhat boring, but if you manage to stay engaged the story gets better and the plot twists are worth the time.

The Perfect Wife was a great read for those who enjoy mystery/thrillers. It was very easy to read and kept my interest the entire length of the book. It definitely had some unexpected twists and turns that kept me engaged. I would love to continue reading more from this series of books.

3 stars. Good, not great.
Liked it overall. Quick read. Some nice elements. A bit predictable and unrealistic. Caught some content related errors (not gramatical.)
Characters not really likable. Meh.

I love this book!
I love this book! I love this plot twist in regards to how Jessie’s ex husband made it seem like she was the one to kill the waitress, and tried to kill his best friend and his best friend’s wife. I could not put this book down. I have been reading the Jessie Hunt Series for a little bit now, and I love it. Sometimes I wish Jessie would hear me when I say that she needs to sit down, but I know that’s not happening. I’m on book 6, and I’m going to keep reading.

I couldn’t get Myself to like this, it was like a torture reading this. The plot starts at 60% way in the book and is not even Exciting or anything. This was such a boring book and I am so glad I didn’t actually buy it and instead got it free.
