The Wife Upstairs by Rachel Hawkins

Jane was running from something in Arizona and running right into more trouble even though she didn't know it would be trouble.

Jane walks dogs for wealthy people, and one of the neighbors whose wife along with her friend drowned bought a dog so he could get close to Jane.

Jane jumped at the chance to walk Eddie Rochester's dog because she knew she could make him love her and be his next wife.  Was she getting herself into something worse than what she left in Arizona?

For Jane, the rich, catty women were the worst, but Jane was getting her plan to work and into place. She nabbed a rich man; now all she had to do was become his wife.

Did Eddie have plans of his own, though, are they already in the works, or have they been carried out?

Then a wrench gets thrown in - the police find out his wife's friend was murdered, and they think Eddie's wife was too.

What will happen next?  A lot happens.

Everyone in this book seems to have a secret, and they are ones that may be difficult to keep. They also are pretty good liars.

I would be sure to put this book in your TBR....it is that good. 5/5

This book was given to me by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

  1. I have my eye on this title but it wasn't until recently that I heard it was loosely based on Jane Eyre.

  2. I guess it doesn't always pay to marry rich! This one sounds like a great suspense novel.
