Jake Hayes is missing. This much is certain. At first, his wife, Nina, thinks he is blowing off steam at a friend's house after their heated fight the night before. But then a day goes by. Two days. Five. And Jake is still nowhere to be found.

Lily Scott, Nina's friend and coworker, thinks she may have been the last to see Jake before he went missing. After Lily confesses everything to her husband, Christian, the two decide that nobody can find out what happened leading up to Jake's disappearance, especially not Nina. But Nina is out there looking for her husband, and she won't stop until the truth is discovered.

Customer Reviews

Could not put this down

What a great read! This one had me guessing till the end. Well written. Clever plot. Highly recommend!

Fast Paced Read but Did Not Like it

After reading "Local Woman Missing" and Loving it, I was very disappointed in "Just the Nicest Couple". It was a very fast read for me, I was very driven to finish it, even though I didn't enjoy it. I knew there was more to Lily than met the "eye" ( or words lol ). I was not really expecting the twist at the end but at the same time not surprised.

Twisty and suspenceful

This book was hard to put down. I loved the twist!
