Could NOT put this down!! I received a copy of this book free from SheSpeaks in exchange for an honest review. "Behind Closed Doors" was amazing in every way! Extremely chilling and one of the best books I have ever read, and I am an avid reader. I could NOT put this book down. There are twists and turns and tons of intrigue! Left me breathless eagerly awaiting what was going to happen next. I highly recommend this book. It was absolutely fascinating!!

What?s Really Behind Closed Doors? OH. MY. WORD! To say that I was captivated and consumed by Behind Closed Doors is an understatement. This isn't even the normal type of book that I read - psychological suspense thriller - but I literally couldn't put this book down. On the outside, Jack and Grace Angel are the perfect couple - good looking, wealthy, respectable. Jack is a well-known champion lawyer for women who are victims of domestic violence and he's never lost a case. Charming Grace is a former buyer for Harrods, who now stays at home...and is never seen without Jack by her side. NEVER. What begins as the things that romance novels and chick flicks are made of turns out to be Fatal Attraction meets Silence of the Lambs. This is an advertisement for SheSpeaks/St. Martins Press

This book has quickly become my favorite book of the summer. I was so intrigued throughout the whole book. I loved how B A Paris used time to convey the story. The jumping from the past to the present really holds a readers interest and makes this book hard to put down. This book truly inspires the reader to feel something they probably never have before, pure dread. The reader can really relate to Grace as a person even though her situation may not be entirely relatable. B A Paris ends the book with a slight twist that we never see coming. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who enjoys psychological thrillers. I received a copy of the book free from SheSpeaks in exchange for my honest review.

Emotionally Gripping and Hard to Put Down I received a free ARC of this book from SheSpeaks for their Behind Closed Doors book club. Once I started reading this book, it was really hard to put down. I had to read it all the same day. It is all from the viewpoint of Grace and the story goes back and forth from the past to the present to show how things began and where they are now, but it unfolds the story with the perfect amount of teasing the reader by only giving a few details at a time. Grace thinks she's met the perfect man who not only loves her, but also loves her sister Millie who has Down's Syndrome and will be coming to live with Grace full-time soon. However, soon Jack Angel's dark secrets are revealed to Grace and there looks to be no escape for her or Millie from Jack's warped plans for them. Will Grace be able to protect herself and Millie or will this man control them completely? You'll just have to read it for yourself to find out.

Great summer read Finally a book I don't want to put down! This is a perfect summer read for those busy moms who want to get lost in something other than play dates, messes, bedtime and counting down the days till routine comes back!

You Won't Want to Put This Book Down! I read this book in about 4 hours! This psychological thriller is a page turner and relatively short book. The story describes Jack and Grace who seem like a perfectly charming couple at first glance until the author starts revealing more details about their past lives and present activities. The story is told from Grace's perspective. The timeline alternates from past to present, which made it easy to read and helped to keep the momentum going. I don't want to give away too much, but let's just say that you never really know what's going on behind closed doors. After reading this book, I wondered if something like this could actually happen in real life. I shudder at the thought of this happening in real life.

A great Summer read! At the beginning of this Summer I started reading again because it is one of my favorite hobbies. I couldn't wait to start reading this new book because it sounded like something I would love to read. At the beginning I wasn't sure if I was going to enjoy it but after a few pages I could not put it down, and only did because I had to at the time. I found my heart beating faster and reminding myself that I had to breath as I read each chapter. The chapters bounce back and forth between present and past and I never knew what was going to happen next. I finished this book in just 2 days because I did not want to put it down.

Eerily Amazing Behind Closed Doors started a little bit slow and seemed like I book I wouldn't usually pick up. However, after a few chapters this books gets into it and I could not put it down. Jack and Grace are the perfect characters or so you think. Everyone is smarter and ahead of each other and you that you cannot predict the outcome of the story. Millie is amazing and I love how she ties the story together from beginning to end. B.A. Paris writes this book alternating between past and present to give a full and fluid story keeping you enthralled the whole time. The story line is amazing and makes your heartbeat especially when other characters such as Esther enter the scene. The way Grace is written is flawless and you can really connect with her a feel the emotions through the pages. She goes through so much and it truly takes your emotions on the ride with her. Jack is handcrafted and one of a kind. His character is so eerie and unknown even when you feel like you know, you don't. Millie is a breath of fresh air and a sort of relief throughout the story. She knows so much more than you initially think and she is such an amazing character. I love that the author gives Down-syndrome a different perspective than its ever been given and it is much appreciated. Behind Closed Doors in in a world of the high class but I never felt disconnected from it once it picked up. I do appreciate that initially it is deceptive though because it made me love it that much more. I wouldn't change a thing about this book except to wish that it were longer or never ending. This has been one of the best reads I've had in awhile. I would love to read more from B.A. Paris in the future her writing style is amazing. I already have people who cannot wait to get their hands on this book.

Loved it I loved this book. It had me hooked from page one. I liked it so much I read it twice.

So suspenseful!! I read a lot. Tons of books. Usually it takes me a while to get through one though because I'm a stay at home mom but I did not want to put this book down!! It took over my life for the two days it took me to read it! Haha. Its so suspenseful. You never know what is going to happen next! I loved ever minute of it! I received my copy free from SheSpeaks. Opinion is 100% my own.

Tragically intoxicating I just got this book free from Shespeaks.com a few days ago and I can't put it down. It is a heartwrenching but thrilling book about the perfect couple that is not as perfect as they seem. I don't want to give too much away but it is one of those books that you are either going to love or completely hate by about the third chapter. It goes back and forth between present and the past of how the couple met and what is currently going on, and it does deal with a lot of mental abuse of the wife, that is all I will say but it is a heartwrenching and yet 'can't stop reading type of book'.

Great book! I received a copy of the book Behind Closed Doors for free from SheSpeaks in exchange for my honest review. I loved this book; it was the type of book that you don't want to put down! I hardly ever get the time to read anymore but I managed to get this done in1 week because I would rather read this book than watch tv. I really liked the way it was set up to, jumping back and forth from the past to the present always kept me wanting to keep reading.

A must read for summer Behind Closed Doors is a great book. The kind of book you do not want to put down until you have finished it. Very captivating until the very last word. I received this book for free from SheSpeaks

Phenomenal Book!!! This book was PHENOMENAL!!!! I could not put the book down. It took me less than 2 full days to complete the book. This book had many twists in it and I'm so glad to had the opportunity to participate in reading this book and sharing my thoughts as well. Thank to Shespeaks for allowing me to participate and share with this program!!! #shespeaks #looksaredeceiving #behindcloseddoors #ad

This book started off slowly. It sounded like a beautiful Love Story. It turned Dark & Evil quickly & kept me turning the pages at a fast pace. I couldn't put it down. I suggest everyone read this book it is quite suspenseful. Good to the last page!
