Best Day Ever

By: Kaira Rouda

Narrated by: Graham Halstead, Amy McFadden

"As I opened the door and stepped into the humid night, her scream followed me out. But I knew there was still love for me in her heart

I'm unforgettable."

Paul Strom has the perfect life: a glittering career as an advertising executive, a beautiful wife, two healthy boys and a big house in a wealthy suburb. And he's the perfect husband: breadwinner, protector, provider. That's why he's planned a romantic weekend for his wife, Mia, at their lake house, just the two of them. And he's promised today will be the best day ever.

But as Paul and Mia drive out of the city and toward the countryside, a spike of tension begins to wedge itself between them and doubts start to arise. How perfect is their marriage, or any marriage, really? How much do they trust each other? Is Paul the person he seems to be? And what are his secret plans for their weekend at the cottage?

Forcing us to ask ourselves just how well we know those who are closest to us, Best Day Ever crackles with dark energy, spinning ever tighter toward its shocking conclusion. In the bestselling, page-turning vein of The Couple Next Door and The Dinner, Kaira Rouda weaves a gripping, tautly suspenseful tale of deception and betrayal dark enough to destroy a marriage or a life.

Waste of an audible credit

The book was hard to get through because it seemed to drag. It was quite drab and dry, didn't get to the meat of what was going on until the end of the book. I wouldn't recommend this book.

Kept me wanting more but maybe too predictable?

It was a story that kept me wanting more, and I loved that it’s from the perspective of the antagonist. However, about halfway through I felt like I had figured everything out and I kept hoping it would unfold differently.

Best Day Ever

A pretty decent thriller. Good story line, quite brilliant as well. Had me hungry to return to the book soon as possible.

Fun read!

Okay so I love a good psychological thriller... I love being sucked in by the first few pages and then swept up for a day or two in a book lala land. This book totally did that for me. It kept me wanting to continue listening until it was over. It is a fast fun read. Don’t hesitate spending a credit on this book!

Took a minute to get rolling, but it was good

This dude is a real piece of work. It was a little slow going, but I understand why so much slow build was necessary to really get to the meat of who this guy was and just how dastardly (I don't get to use this word too often. LOL) he really is.
