7.28.2017 - The Marriage Pact

The Marriage Pact by Michelle Richmond

Thanks to NetGalley, Bantam and Michelle Richmond for the opportunity to read this creepy, addictive book!

Alice and Jake are a newly married couple. Alice left the rock and roll world to become a lawyer while Jake is a therapist. Jake feels he pressured Alice into marrying him so he wouldn't lose her and doesn't quite feel confident that she truly loves him. Alice felt that she didn't have what it took to make a marriage work and was scared to fail.

So they are the perfect people to be brought into The Pact. They are given a box as a wedding present and are later presented with the key and an invitation to join a special group of individuals who are putting their marriages first above all else. There are strict rules and strict punishments - all of which become horribly clear as time goes on.

I loved all the marriage statistics and info and The Pact's ideas to put marriage first were great. Until all the rest. Seriously creepy but you definitely couldn't put it down until you figured out what was going to happen!
