CROSS HER HEART
Sarah Pinborough

Reviewed by Patti Loveday
Posted September 27, 2018

Suspense | Thriller

CROSS HER HEART is a captivating read written by Sarah Pinborough. A brilliantly twisted, unsettling yet compelling novel that is a must-read for fans of psychological thrillers.

A slow-burning read that starts out slowly to set the framework for an emotional chilling story full of unexpected twists and turns. You just can predict what is about to happen. The first few chapters are the author's way of setting the scene, introducing you to the characters and their backstories. CROSS HER HEART has three main characters: Lisa, a mother who is haunted by a dark past, her sixteen-year-old daughter, Ava, and Lisa's best friend, Marilyn.

The middle of CROSS HER HEART picks up quickly and has shocking moments leaving you questioning "what" and "why?" Pinborough brilliantly executes the storyline in a nail-biting way that is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat. This story is as much about the characters as it is the plot.

CROSS HER HEART is both a shocking and harrowing read. A story that will leave you second guessing until the very end. A remarkable psychological thriller that is sure to stay with you after reading. I highly recommend CROSS HER HEART to anyone who loves a heart-pounding thriller.

SUMMARY

The New York Times bestselling author of Behind Her Eyes returns with a twisty, hair-raising psychological thriller about a single mom, her daughter, and her best friend, the secrets they hide, and the danger they can't escape.

"Sarah Pinborough is about to become your new obsession."β€”Harlan Coben

Lisa lives a very quiet life. A single mother nearing forty, she devotes herself to raising her sixteen-year-old daughter, Ava. Wary of men, Lisa doesn't speak of her past or Ava's absent father. Her best friend Marilyn wishes she would open up more and maybe finally go on a dateβ€”with the sexy new client who's obviously keenβ€”but Marilyn has problems of her own.

Ava is getting tired of her overprotective mother. She wants to live like a normal teenagerβ€”chill with friends, go to swim practice, study for exams, have a boyfriend. Her mom would freak if she knew that Ava's already got someone special, someone who makes her feel sophisticatedβ€”and wanted.

Lisa has spent a long time looking over her shoulder, but lately she's been especially uneasy. Small things from the past have begun to appear in the present, feeding her anxiety. As her life begins to unravel, Lisa knows that the only way she can protect herself and her daughter is to face her fears. Yet courage won't be enough. She'll need help from the only person she can trustβ€”Marilyn. Between them they have to save Ava, and to do that, they have to be honest with each other. Truly honest. Marilyn did promise she'd do anything to help.

But a long time ago, Lisa made a promise too. Then she broke her word. And that betrayal hasn't been forgottenβ€”or forgiven.

Now, someone is going to make her pay for her sin.
