Thicker than Water by Megan CollinsRead about another entry on the list.
Yes, there is murder. Yes, there are twists. But I really can’t think of another book that shows the dimensionality and loveliness of a “soulmate friends” relationship between women like this.
Julia Larkin’s husband, Jason, is in a coma. But amidst her fear, devastation, and the long hours at the hospital, at least she hasSienna to lean on, her sister-in-law and best friend.
When Jason’s boss is found brutally murdered with his lips stitched together, Julia is of course shocked and saddened. But her shock turns to something darker when the police find evidence connecting the murder to Jason–her amazing husband who would never kill someone… right?
With Jason unconscious and unable to explain or defend himself, it’s up to Julia and Sienna to prove his innocence. Until Julia starts to realize that all the clues really do point to her husband…
Come for the satisfying murder mystery, but stay for the soulmate friends.
