Make Her Pay – Miranda Rijks

Summary

Leonie is living her best life. Still in her twenties, she’s beautiful and successful and has just met Markus, the man of her dreams. But Leonie has a secret.

Ten years ago, she was involved in an accident in which another driver died. Leonie shouldn’t have been behind the wheel that night—no license, no insurance—so she fled the scene. And ever since, she’s been struggling to deal with the terrible guilt.

Now, as her wedding to Markus draws near, it seems someone is out to get her. It’s little things at first—botched work appointments, a canceled bridal dress—but it soon escalates into a terrifying campaign that threatens her business, her family, and even her life.

Caught up in a relentless nightmare, Leonie has no idea why anyone would set out to destroy her—until she realizes there’s a link to the accident that happened all those years ago.

Someone knows what she did. Someone is determined to make her pay.

Review

Leonie’s journey was interesting to read. I felt for her anytime her relationship with her father was brought up, and when the too good to be true Markus came into her life, my heart sank. Because we have the POV’s of both Leonie and Carrie, I tied everything into place way before the second half started (well, 95%) but it was still an interesting read about accountability, guilt and revenge.

I remember when I read my first ARC from Rijks, The Influencer, and this was a great improvement from the writing in there. I actually look forward to Miranda’s future works.
