Samantha Bailey hits it out of the park again with her second psychological suspense novel, Watch Out For Her. Told in the present from the point of view of Sarah, the protective mother of six-year-old Jacob and in the past by Holly, the college-age nanny she hires, this suspenseful novel hits all the right notes as we bounce around, trying to figure out who to believe, who to trust, and who might be betraying who. Add in Sarah's husband, who is clearly hiding something, Holly's step-sister Alexis who clearly has boundary issues, an over-sharing neighbor who may or may not be trustworthy, and Holly's father, who is using her in unscrupulous ways, and you've got one heck of a story that will keep you turning pages, forcing you to think about what demons drive people and how we'll all seeking love, attention, and safety in our own family and in our own neighborhoods and the lengths some people will go to in getting what they want.
Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with an Advanced Reader Copy in exchange for an honest review.
