Synopsis

‘I’m your husband, Chloe. We’re a partnership now and we do what’s best for us as a couple.’   Chloe finally feels like she’s got her life together. After a difficult childhood and losing both parents,  she worked hard for the life she loves in lively Brighton, helping people as a physiotherapist. And then she meets the perfect man.   It’s a whirlwind romance, but Dan is handsome, funny, and simply the kindest man she’s ever met. When she sees him standing by the altar, tears glistening in his eyes, she knows this will be for always.   As they sunbathe on their honeymoon island, laughing over drinks, planning  their future with their feet in the sand, Dan jokes that he’d like them to stay there forever.   At first, Chloe couldn’t agree more. It’s tempting to imagine truly leaving her troubled past behind. But as the honeymoon goes on, he becomes increasingly adamant. They shouldn’t leave. In fact, he won’t let her…   An utterly gripping psychological thriller for fans of Gillian Flynn, Clare Mackintosh, and The Wife Between Us.   Readers are loving The Honeymoon: ‘I devoured this book in one night—it definitely kept me on the edge of my seat! There were many unexpected twists, right up to the very end! Highly engaging book, I definitely recommend!’ Goodreads reviewer   ‘I absolutely 100% loved this book! A 5 star read… The Honeymoon had it all...twists, turns, a beautiful setting, characters we want to hate and ones we want to love, paranoia, and a sense of something bad about to happen… CRAZY AND TWISTED!’ Goodreads reviewer, 5 stars

Goodreads review by Mackenzie - PhDiva Books on June 08, 2019

A whirlwind romance, a dream honeymoon…but what if that dream turns out to be a nightmare? I have to say, UK psychological thrillers are always wild rides, and this one was no exception! The characters in this are really something, and at one point I truly had NO idea what I thought was going on. A......more

Goodreads review by Carrie on June 12, 2019

The Honeymoon by Rona Halsall is a thriller that totally should be marketed as a handbook on why you don’t rush into marriage. Sure, there’s the rare occasion a whirlwind romance may work out but how often is that really? Rush to the alter and what you get is what we have in this thriller, two peopl......more

Actually, maybe not because Chloe’s dream honeymoon may not actually be as picturesque as that cover depicts. People often joke that they wish they could stay on their vacation indefinitely but what if......more

When we first meet Chloe. Life couldn’t be better. She has met the man of her dreams and is setting off on her honeymoon to a fabulous destination.
