Blurb
In order to collect on their husbands’ life insurance policies, three middle-aged friends turn to murder—unaware that their husbands have a devious plan of their own, in this darkly funny debut perfect for fans of The Thursday Murder Club and Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone

Meet three wives who want a new life, and three husbands who are in their way . . .

After thirty years of friendship, Pam dreams of her perfect retirement with Nancy, Shalisa, Marlene, and their husbands—until the husbands pool their funds in an investment that goes terribly wrong. With their dreams of beachfront condos and a sunny, carefree retirement shattered, the women’s golden years are looking as dreary as their marriages.

Then one of the husbands dies in a freak accident and the other three women are shocked to see their friend rebound with a huge life insurance payout and a new life in Florida. In the aftermath, the three discover that their husbands have identical, seven-figure life insurance policies. A new dream begins to take form, and this time it involves a hitman.

Our review

“Happy wife, happy life”

Age of Main Characters in this book: above 60 all of them,

This book can be easily summarized with the quote “Happy wife, happy life” and I love it. It will make you feel everything: love, betrayal, anguish, anger, sadness, hope, joy, intrigue, and more; it certainly comes with a rollercoaster of feelings.

I enjoyed this book so much, it keeps me reading and I gladly appreciate a book that can keep me hooked, I read a book a day and believe me, keeping me entertained is not easy, (you can ask my husband).
Every time I thought something was happening in some way, things changed and they happened in a very different way and I love that.
I love all the things you can learn from this book, even the bad ones, like how much a hitman charges; but, my favourite part is the emotional part, how important communication is in a marriage, even the hard conversations are necessary. I was frustrated seeing how they love each other and the miscommunication made them think very different things, OMG I’m getting mad again!
Anyway, if you are looking for a well-written book, with friendship, live lessons, and murder mystery-mafia comedy, this book is for you. I guess if you are too young you may not appreciate this masterpiece, but I assure you, if you are married and over 30 you would love it.

As for me, I will read anything this author decides to write. Thank you Sue for such an amazing journey. As someone who reads as much as I do, you don't have an Idea how much I appreciate a good story.

TBR Flower is even more beautiful in person. I absolutely love it. And such a cool way to do your TBR. Easy to setup. And lots of room in the base to store more TBR. I am so glad I ordered this. Can't wait to display on my shelf. Very well made. Extremely pleased with my purchase. The BookClub Boutique is my new favorite store. ❤️

I love this reading journal! It is so pretty and so many great prompts and questions for reading

I love this reading journal! It is so pretty and so many great prompts and questions for reading. I actually feel more motivated to read more so I can write in this journal. I love tracking what I read and writing down notes about each book. One teeny tiny thing I would have liked to see is a TBR list and/or wishlist for new books. I know there is only so much space . I used the blank note pages at the back of the journal to create a TBR and a wish list. Everything else is great! Absolutely love using my reading journal. I constantly look back on my progress and notes I have written down. Once I finished my current reading journal, I will grab another one from you! Beautiful work!
