The Marriage Pact by Michelle Richmond

Newlywed's Jake and Alice have just opened up a wedding gift from one of Alice's prominent clients and the gift is enticing enough for Jake and Alice to accept it and become part of, "The Pact."

Alice is a successful lawyer and Jake is a therapist. Their lives seem to be headed in the right direction and when presented with this seemingly innocent "gift" they naively sign the documents without reading them which turns out to be a big mistake. They each have their own reasons for joining but are quick to find out something sinister is afoot.

The Pact has one goal and it is to keep marriages happy and intact. Seems simple enough,  right?  Not so much! Their are rules and infractions but the initial seduction of  glamour and ritz entices them.

Everything seems to be perfect until a penalty is assessed on Alice and then suddenly things take a dark turn. Jake and Alice find out that something sinister lies amongst The Pact and it's members but getting out could cost them their lives.

This is a page turner for sure! It's bizarre, strange and takes readers on a mysterious thrilling ride.
