A new, twisting thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Teacher and The Housemaid!
She's looking for the perfect man. He's looking for the perfect victim.
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She's seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot.
Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet.
Then the brutal murder of a young woman―the latest in a string of deaths across the coast―confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.
Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn't get to the truth, she'll be the killer's next victim...
A dark story about obsession and the things we'll do for love, #1 New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden proves that crimes of passion are often the bloodiest…

I’ve read several of her books and this easily slides to the number 1 spot! I usually figure things out before she reveals it but this one had the shock factor I had been looking for in her other books!
Freida McFadden has done it again with The Boyfriend. This book grabbed me by the throat on page one and did not let go. Twisted, fast-paced, and utterly addictive — I finished it in one breathless sitting.Just when I thought I had the mystery solved, McFadden whispered “nope” and yanked the plot in a whole new direction. The twists? Mind-blowing. The pacing? Chef’s kiss. The red tie on the cover? Now gives me trust issues. 😳👔🩸If you love: • unreliable narrators • deliciously dark secrets • endings that punch you in the gut…Then this thriller is your new obsession.Is he the man of your dreams? Or your worst nightmare?Read it and find out — just don’t trust anyone. 😵💫
Well per usual when I thought I knew what was happening I was completely wrong. Nothing beats a McFadden book to get you out of a reading slump!!
A friend of mine recommended I check out Ms. McFaddens books and this was the first one I picked up. Just when I thought that I knew what was happening or could predict the ending. I realized I have no idea. This book was unpredictable, captivating and attention grabbing. I definitely will be reading more of her books are in the very near future and I already have one in my to be read pile.
Psychological thrillers are not my typical read but I enjoyed this book. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and will definitely read more of McFadden us books.
