About the Book:
When Charlotte married the wealthy widower Paul, it caused a
ripple of gossip in their small lakeside town. They have a charmed life
together, despite the cruel whispers about her humble past and his first
marriage. But everything starts to unravel when she discovers a young woman’s
body floating in the exact same spot where Paul’s first wife tragically drowned.
At first, it seems like a horrific coincidence, but the stranger in the lake is no stranger. Charlotte saw Paul talking to her the day before, even though Paul tells the police he’s never met the woman. His lie exposes cracks in their fragile new marriage, cracks Charlotte is determined to keep from breaking them in two.
As Charlotte uncovers dark mysteries about the man she married, she doesn’t know what to trust—her heart, which knows Paul to be a good man, or her growing suspicion that there’s something he’s hiding in the water.

MY REVIEW:
Stranger in the Lake by Kimberly BelleMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Charlotte comes from a trailer park and dysfunctional family. Then she meets Paul who is wealthy. There was a lot of gossip about them in town but they are happy. Then one morning she finds a dead woman floating under their dock. Paul isn't home and it's where his first wife drowned.
The stranger is actually a woman Charlotte saw him talking to the day before.
More things come to light and Charlotte doesn't know if she can trust Paul.
We know he has been keeping secrets and her former best friend is a cop and doesn't like Paul. Paul's best friend is there all the time to help.
I had a feeling what happened and who did it. There was more to what the eye saw and more to these characters than you know.
Thanks to Harlequin and NetGalley for the ARC.
