When I read the premise of The Golden Couple, I honestly wasn't that intrigued. But I should've known a novel written by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen would capture my attention from chapter 1 and take me on a wild and twisty ride! I read this in a weekend and it was the perfect palate cleanser between more serious/literary novels.
The plot features Marissa and Matthew Bishop, an attractive successful husband and wife (the titular Golden Couple) and Avery Chambers, a controversial therapist who agrees to use her unorthodox methods to fix their marriage. I was so interested to learn the backstories of these characters and get glimpses of Avery's other patients.
In addition to unraveling the issues in the Bishop relationship, intriguing storylines involve Marissa's employee, a Bishop family friend, and Avery's obsession with her personal safety. Red herrings abound, and I was so curious to see if/how these threads would braid together. Just keep in mind, as with other Hendricks/Pekkanen stories, nothing is as it appears.
Reading this via audiobook narrated by Karissa Vacker and Marin Ireland, primarily on a solo road trip, was perfect to make the miles fly by. It felt like Avery and Marissa were my passengers, telling me more and more about their lives, both the public and very private.
Many thanks to St. Martin's Press, Macmillan Audio, Libro.fm, and NetGalley for the review copies of this fast-paced title.
