Synopsis:

Gwen Bishop, wife, mother, and struggling real estate agent, has two big fears: claustrophobia and being buried in suburban obscurity. When she signs her dream listing, a multi-million dollar beachfront property in Laguna Beach, California, she’s sure her problems are behind her. And they would be, if it wasn’t for the secret in the basement and the body in an upstairs bedroom.

When the crime scene tape comes down, Gwen enlists the aid of a handsome co-worker with a background in construction to help her ready the house for sale and bolster her flagging courage. But every time they’re ready to put it back on the market, something goes horribly wrong. She must face old fears and new ones, temptations and buried truths. Gwen is determined to sell the dream house—or die trying.

Review:
A suspenseful and captivating story!   

A Margin of Lust is a suspenseful thriller that revolves around Gwen, a real estate agent, who is struggling with her marriage while trying to succeed in her career. While preparing homes to be ready for showing at open house, Gwen faces challenges. A killer is on the loose and targeting real estate agents and local residents. The killer is determined to get revenge and find the priceless treasure.

A Margin of Lust was an enthralling and well-written story.  With the many twists and turns, this story had a believable plot. Greta Boris did a superb job writing a story that was full of action and suspense while touching on the hardships and suspicions of Gwen’s marriage. The author really knows how to build up the suspense and keep your attention to the very end.  This story kept my interest piqued from the beginning to the end. I didn’t even have a hint of who the killer was until it was revealed.  The characters were well developed and interesting. The author brought some real issues into the characters that made them appear real and easily relatable. Life is not always easy and things sometimes are not as they appear, throwing a killer into this mix makes for an intriguing and captivating read.

This is the first book that I have read by Greta Boris and will certainly not be my last. I was not disappointed at all. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. I recommend A Margin of Lust to anyone that enjoys reading a suspense/thriller that will keep you entertained all the way to the end.
