The Safe Place By Anna Downes

 

Welcome to paradise...will you ever be able to leave?

Emily is a mess.

Emily Proudman just lost her acting agent, her job, and her apartment in one miserable day.

Emily is desperate.

Scott Denny, a successful and charismatic CEO, has a problem that neither his business acumen nor vast wealth can fix. Until he meets Emily.

Emily is perfect.

Scott offers Emily a summer job as a housekeeper on his remote, beautiful French estate. Enchanted by his lovely wife Nina, and his eccentric young daughter, Aurelia, Emily falls headlong into this oasis of wine-soaked days by the pool. But soon Emily realizes that Scott and Nina are hiding dangerous secrets, and if she doesn't play along, the consequences could be deadly.

My Thoughts...
I can't wait for Downes next book. This was a treat to read.  I was given a copy by another reviewer she said you have got to read this. She was so right. I really did enjoy it and I can tell you enough why you need to read it. So twisted and different but so good. 4 stars from this reviewer.
