The Uninvited Guest by Ruby Speechley

-
The Uninvited Guest is the newest psychological thriller by Ruby Speechley and it is a good one! I'm so happy to share this book with you along with Rachel's Random Resources.

About the Book:

One hen, one stag, one uninvited guest… who won’t make it to the wedding?

Megan Lewis is ready for her big day, but when an unexpected guest crashes her hen weekend, her perfectly curated world unravels.

Beth, claiming to be Jamie’s cousin, quickly charms the group. But when she gets close to bridesmaid Lauren, things take a dark turn, and a game of truth or dare exposes secrets from Megan’s past, shaking her world.

As the wedding nears, Megan realises Beth isn’t who she says she is — but she may be her only ally. When you can’t trust anyone, not even your fiancé, who can you turn to?

 

Review:

A week away from their wedding Jamie and Megan are having their independent stag and hen do’s. When an uninvited guest shows up at Megan’s things go wrong. Megan has received threats so she is on edge to start with. The author did a great job unraveling the secrets at the right time. I was horrified at the way Megan’s “friends” treated her. My favorite part of the book was the dialogue between the characters.
