by Alice Feeney
If you enjoyed Netflix's His & Hers adapted from Alice Feeney's novel, her new one will be a real bonus. Artist Eden Fox returns from a run to find her new home unrecognizable: her key doesn’t work, a woman identical to her is inside, and her husband claims the stranger is his wife. Six months earlier, reclusive Londoner Birdy inherits the same house after a life-changing diagnosis and, drawn to the village of Hope Falls, uncovers a secretive clinic that predicts death dates - setting in motion a chain of buried secrets and unsettling truths.
by Sara Levine
Those who has a corgi at home, will understand why we added this book to our Top 5. Rose Cutler prides herself on her rigid principles and believes she knows the correct way to live - and to raise children. When she agrees to care for her six-year-old nephew, Nathan, while his parents are away, she’s expected to stick to strict rules and not interfere. After Rose’s dog kills a corgi at the park, Nathan begins behaving strangely, and Rose assumes he’s traumatized by the incident. But Nathan insists he isn’t grieving at all - the corgi’s soul has entered his body. With time running out before his parents return, Rose is forced to confront the impossible task of driving the dog’s spirit out of her nephew.
by James Patterson and Susan DiLallo
The fans of this best-selling author should be looking for his new thriller this month. Once a celebrated FBI agent now sidelined by past failures, Elinor is offered a chance to redeem herself when her former boss recruits her for a dangerous undercover mission. Posing as a harmless nanny, she infiltrates the lavish home of a New York art dealer suspected of laundering money for a powerful drug cartel. Unprepared for the challenges of caring for children, Elinor finds herself increasingly attached to them as the investigation deepens. As hidden crimes come to light and the stakes rise, she must decide whether to complete the mission or protect the family that has come to trust her.
by Belle Burden
Sometimes nonfiction is too close to your home, as it happened for Belle Burden. After her husband of twenty years suddenly leaves, Belle Burden is forced to confront how the marriage and life she believed in could disappear overnight. In Strangers, she reexamines her relationship and her upbringing, uncovering how expectations of female compliance shaped her response to betrayal. Through heartbreak, she transforms from a dutiful wife into a braver woman who reclaims her voice, self-trust, and belief in love.
