The Boyfriend

From the acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Freida McFadden comes The Boyfriend, a spellbinding thriller that delves into a world of obsession, deceit, and deadly passion.

In bustling New York City, every woman has her fair share of dating disasters. Sydney Shaw is no exception. She has swiped left on men who lie in their profiles, ducked out on dates stuck with the dinner bill, and endured endless monologues about overbearing mothers. Just when Sydney thinks she'll never find love, she meets a man who seems to be everything she ever wanted.

Her new boyfriend is everything she could dream of; he's charming, handsome, and even works as a respected doctor at a local hospital. Sydney feels like she's hit the dating jackpot and quickly finds herself falling head over heels.

However, this blissful romance soon takes a dark turn. A young woman is brutally murdered, becoming the latest victim in a series of killings that have left the coast in fear. The police are on edge, searching desperately for a serial killer who dates his victims before committing his heinous crimes.

Sydney should feel secure. After all, her boyfriend is the man of her dreams. Yet, she can't shake the growing unease. Small inconsistencies and disturbing signs begin to make her question the perfection of her relationship. Is her charming doctor boyfriend all that he appears to be? Or could he be hiding a sinister secret?

As Sydney's paranoia mounts, she realises that someone may be watching her every move. Time is running out, and unless she uncovers the truth, she might just become the next victim.

In The Boyfriend, Freida McFadden masterfully crafts a dark, twisting narrative that explores the terrifying depths of obsession and the perilous edges of love. This gripping tale will keep you on the edge of your seat, questioning every character's motives and haunted by the chilling possibility that the person who loves you the most could be your greatest danger.
