After a lavish night of guilty pleasures in Monte Carlo, four best friends face an awful morning of arrests -- and a fight for survival.
Only minutes after Abbie Elliot and her three best friends step off of a private helicopter, they enter the most luxurious, sumptuous, sensually pampering hotel they have ever been to. Their lavish presidential suite overlooks Monte Carlo, and they surrender: to the sun and pool, to the sashimi and sake, to the Bruno Paillard champagne. As the weekend moves into pulsating discos, high-stakes casinos, and beyond, Abbie is transported to the greatest pleasure and release she has ever known.
In the morning's harsh light, Abbie awakens on a yacht, surrounded by police. Something awful has happened: something impossible, unthinkable. Abbie, Winnie, Serena, and Bryah are arrested and accused of the foulest crime imaginable. And now the vacation of a lifetime becomes the fight of a lifetime-a fight for survival. Guilty Wives is the ultimate indulgence, the kind of nonstop joy-ride of excess, friendship, betrayal, and danger that only James Patterson can create.

Guilty Wives. Awesome! Couldn't put it down!

SS in VA

Good and Bad. This book has a complex and sophisticated plot. But my one and only complaint is that the in prison days for the four women was FAR too graphic and FAR too long. This was unnecessary to the success of the book. While reading the in prison part, I almost just gave up on the book. The story was no fun too read here, and even depressing. And it seemed to never end. The book editor really should have ordered a fix. I stuck with it, and it got good and enjoyable later. But I fear many readers would just put it down. Too bad no one wised up this author. Too bad Patterson did not speak up. Could have been excellent. Instead only fair.

Awesome!. Hands down the best James Patterson book I have ever read! Well done Sir!

Patison222

Guilty wives. Great Book, amazing could not put down :) I really enjoyed this book, couldn't stope read:) and I am not big reader:) strongly recommend :)

Leslieleo

Poor. Do not waste your money on this boring book. Patterson needs to retire. I hate to say this, though, because in the past I have enjoyed his writing.

Lesmcd

Intense. The story grabs you from the beginning. As the plots unfold it becomes more and more intense. His description of prison life was chilling and gripping. Great book!

Cj4nier

Fast read. Guilty Wives is a great read. Fast paced. It was hard to put it down. I stayed up way too late two nights in a row unable to stop reading.

Zombielvr4eva

Great read. This was my first JP book and I really like his descriptive manner. I picked up "Second Honeymoon" on a whim while I was in the store just due to enjoying this book.

Ufrulz

Wow! James Patterson has done it again!!. This book was amazing. It was thrilling and full of all the feels! Just when you think you know…ya don’t! He script switches and it’s a good one! I read this book in two days. I was obsessed.

Acrazyrn22

Guilty Wives. Not worth your time! Guilty of being a bad novel!

Sopwin

Guilty Wives. Absolutely brilliant! Could not stop read it!

Jordansmalls89

Good but rushed ending. Really enjoyed this book until the story started to unfold towards the end, I felt it was a bit rushed. Loved reading about women having girl time and enjoying themselves unfiltered!!

LaAngiee

Amazing book!. The first J.Patterson's book I've read and I LOVED IT!!! I would strobgly recomend it! :)

Angelam3147

Great book!. Love Loved this book! Couldn't put it down.

Ddghyrfvvbjuyhb

This was an exceptional Book! Get it!. Yu won't be disappointed, original ratings were on the money. Considering is was a less expensive book it was well worth the read. There was a little dragging out of the jail scene but it was still a great quick read as most all James Patterson's books I've read have been. Although the women murder club 12th of never was definitely laking in the normal form of the group dynamics but still an okay read.

Dullam

Unexpected ending. Many plot twists and a very good story. Hard to put down.

Aly18th

Best book ever!. Seriously could not put this book down!

GM Ree

Guilty Wives. I usually love James Patterson novels, but this one was not in that category. It dragged on & on & on. I lost interest early in the story but forced myself to finish the book. I'm anxious to move on and look forward to my next "James Patterson" read. I understand that even James Patterson can't hit a home run every time!!

LuvmyIpod4

Fantastic Book!. This was amazingly written! This book kept my attention from start to finish! I think it would make a great movie as long as the director stays true to the book. One of my favorite Patterson books, for sure!

Who cares. Worst book I’ve ever read by Patterson and I’ve read a lot. Characters were lifeless and the plot was filled with gratuitous violence and redundant sex. Skimmed through the pages just to get to the predictable end.

Nicky-cole17

Great read!. A page turner full of twists and suspense. I couldn't put it down!

Ardnaed15

Amazing Thriller. This like any other James Patterson book did not disappoint. I loved how the book started with a tragic loss and then takes us through what happened to these four women in Monte Carlo. The book took a huge twist when you find out that their husbands actually set them up for murder as revenge for a spicy night on the town with other men.

Kristen murrrzzzz

Great book. The pickup of this book is slow however the climax and ending are well worth it!

Schristell @ comcast.net

Guilty wives. A bit tedious getting the finish. Unusual for a Patterson book

Vthompson628

Loved it!. Great book! I definitely recommend!

TDaleT

Exciting. Good book to read and Imagination of Patterson and co authors. Action moves along and portrays a great treacherous plot and eventual reckoning

Read Her to Sleep

Not bad, but…. A very good story, but in his effort to reach female readers, he writes too much like a female author, and overdoes it, at that. Too much detail of each room, each outfit, each thought. Too much repetition of character’s thoughts. Even my wife got bored and said “Only 3 stars”.

Careful shopper

Guilty Wives. Once you start reading you will have a hard time putting the book down. Highly recommended.

AlohaShan

Surprising. Love James Patterson but this book was very un-James. Which made the book very memorable besides being great!

Bub701

Page turner!!!. Great read. Absolutely couldn't put it down!

Maggs128

I liked it. I thought this book was good! I thought it was a pretty easy read and found it interesting. There were times I couldn't put it down. I think it's definitely worth the purchase.

Not rotating

Decent airplane book. Let me start by saying I'm not much of a reader anymore, but download books occasionally for plane flights. My sister raves about Patterson, so I thought I'd try one. Not much character development, little background about characters marriages, which should have been a major detail. The French prison stories dragged on and on, however. When the murders were ultimately solved, the book was basically over, with vague details about how the crimes were actually committed. There are likely better choices for plane flight reading!

Boysmumas

Guilty Wives. By Boysmumas What a surprise to find a Patterson stand alone book this entertaining. I found the twists and turns plausible and the stupidity of these women believable. A very fun read.

Paige53

Paige53. Great book. James Patterson delivers once again. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves suspense.

Alensing

Great book. This book was great and really demonstrated the courage of women! It was a great filler while I wait for the new murder club series to come out :)

2016 macpro

Good weekend read. A good weekend read

Ry_Tx

Guilty of not being able to stop reading!. I’m not a big reader…but I bought this to have in my back pocket for plane trips. I couldn’t put it down! If it kept my interest, I would recommend it!

Guilty Wives. Slower then his usual. Disappointing.

Guilty wives. This James Patterson book was incredible, I believe this book is his best work. The character Abbie Elliot is amazing and you will love her personality! By far one of the best reads one can have! I would highly recommend it!

Not impressed. Poor character development and terrible plot.

Guilty wives. Poor book. Not up to Patterson’s usual standards.

Lauri from Cleveland

Never a scorn women. Great read but took a long time to get into the page turning part. Too much French etc. and drawn out too much but I guess to set the book is why. Lauri in Cleveland

Ohsocouture

Captivating. This is my first James Patterson book, and I absolutely loved it! I felt like I lived this story along with Abbie. My heart races, and I wan completely enthralled in finding out the plight of these women. Great book......you won't be disappointed.

I really liked this one!. Honestly, I was really surprised how much I enjoyed this mystery. The title didn't exactly turn me on but no matter what it's called, I always check out Patterson's books. This one had me hooked from start to finish. Impressed.

Angel Eeyore

Guilty ..... ...of living this book! Read it way too fast, couldn't put it down.

Guilty Wives. Very entertaining and I did not want to put this book down! I wish all books were this good. Thank you!

Guscie

Could put this one down. Can wait till the 11th hour comes out in May

Helpits2013

Guilty wives. Took a long time to get interested in this book. The ending was great but the Jail time dragged on and on. As I read it I kept wondering why James Patterson had his name on this book. But the ending was excellent !

IPadDar

It was a real pleasure to read. I really enjoyed reading this book. It had lots of twists and turns and I never got bored! I highly recommend this book!

Guilty Wives. OMG I DIDN'T WANT TO PUT THIS BOOK DOWN AND I DIDN'T WANT TO READ TO FAST, BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD BE OVER....JAMES AND DAVID OUTSTANDING COLABORATION

Michael’s opinion

Guilty wives. This was a page turner that you couldn't put down. Good ending to a great start.

Movie gal221

Not great. This is the first James Patterson book that I felt was totally implausible. I was disappointed with 2/3 of the book. But liked the ending.

Bikerk

Soap opera trash. I was so disappointed with Patterson. Guilty Wives was little more than a trashy soap opera. Several times I started to stop reading, but figured I'd finish it. A complete waste of time.

H20s X5

Guilty wives. AWESOME book! Could not put it down!

Crirgh

Guilty Wives. Long, predictable read. If you are looking for something exciting to happen, I highly recommend reading something else like Anna Karenina, that's how gripping and suspense filled this story is. Thumbs down, usually a fan but truly a disappointing book for Mr Patterson. I don't know if I will ever come back to another one of his "best sellers".

Itdoeswatitdoes

Guilty Wives. First Patterson book and let me tell you it won't be my last !! Lived Guilty Wives couldn't put it down !!

MeMa Diane

Couldn't put it down. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Had a hard time putting it down. I love characters of honor!

Sassy reader

Great book. What a great book. So suspenseful. I read it in about 2 days. I couldn't put it down. My only regret is now it's over!

ApplePie1

Very slow and painful until the end. Good suspense at the end but the first two thirds of the book were boring and painful.

Coroz1

Good read. It's entertaining. Sometimes dragged a little but had to keep reading to find out what ends up happening.

Eastcoaster58

Worth reading. Love his books, this one was no exception. Except it started out slow, but I stuck with it, till the end. Glad I did. You can figure out the outcome, at least some of it. His descriptions of the jail time, will make your skin crawl, and you'll never want to be their predictament.

Ckr10k

Unbelievable, slow to move on, short on quality adventure. The narrator was fabulous! I had expected to follow twists and turns throughout the story of the main character trying to "solve the mystery", but found it difficult to get through the first 7 hours which were mostly of a horrible prison experience that went on and on. Very depressing. And then what seemed a rather quick shallow and unbelievable resolution the book was over.

Kbraund

Guilty Wives. I was so disappointed re James Patterson's books the past few years. It was obvious he (and cowriters) were churning them out to satisfy contract obligations. Then along comes Guilty Wives. It's again obvious why j. Patterson is world's top mystery writer. From the first to last word, I could not put this mystery masterpiece down. Nothing was left out. Descriptions superb, story line terrific, with characters you could love and hate. Scary as hell. But it. A tremendous story with first class writing. Kathryn Braund.

Irish Woman

Guilty Wives. Awesome from beginning to end. It was impossible to put down.

Danig10

Intriguing. Keeps you turning each page. Love how it makes you sit on the end of your seat.

Byday

Guilty Wives. This was my first J. Patterson book. I must say I picked a great one to start reading. It was thrilling, exciting, and heart felt.

Lthoma2

Run Away!. Badly written, grammatically grating, interesting plot but the characters were very poorly developed. Mr. Ellis writes of the type of women he knows nothing about. And they appear like caricatures. Hold out for something smarter!

Jaglowac20

Awesome book. I just finished Guilty Wives. It was an awesome book. I could not put it down and wound up finishing it in 2 days. I hadn't read a book in a few years due to time constraints. I went to iBooks and looked at the best sellers and found Guilty Wives. It hooks you from the first chapter and you can't put it down. Now that I finished this book, I'm looking for a new Patterson book to read again. I would highly recommend this book.

J_Fancy

Guilty Wives. Somewhat predictable but worth the read!

Leanne Angela

Guilty wives. So sad that James Patterson was a great author who now needs to stop writing these trash novels.

Anthnykel

Patterson never lets us down. Guilty Wives was a great book. It really showed Abbie's perseverance and her will power to never give up. This book also shows and reminds the readers of actually how powerful friendships and family are. At the end giving Abbie's children their mother back kept her always pushing on. Great Book read it in 3 nights

Scubajudy

Guilty wives. Too long -in the end, didn't care if she was guilty or not! This was not "Patterson & Co." at their best.

AutumnTime26

Awesome Book!!!!. I loved this book! It was a great story of friendships and the strength of women.

Bren56

Guilty wives. Disappointing read. I love James Patterson books however I don't enjoy the books he writes with other people. This one was a hard read for me. It seemed to move rather slow until the last few chapters.

Aggietharp

Great. Fantastic story!!

Rocketshoes

Favorite so far. Wow this book kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I read it within two days, not meaning to but I just could not put it down! If it's your time wanting to read a James Patterson book, I recommend reading this book. Great!!

Mrotmd

Entertaining. While the plot is a bit far fetched, thee is enough intrigue to keep turning pages. The end is predictable but interesting. Quite honestly, while I do understand it is a work of fiction, the depiction of the French criminal justice system and the penitentiary, sounds more as it belongs to Darfur than France. It makes the CIA deals with real terrorists look like a kindergarten teacher

Princess Fergie

Must read. I couldn't put this book down! Love the characters!

Nicky-cole17

Great read!. A page turner full of twists and suspense. I couldn't put it down!

LS54175

Fabulous book & a quick read!. James Patterson has yet to disappoint!

Mcleandayona

Guilty Wives. Wow what a book full of suspense I could not put this novel down. James Patterson really stepped out of the box with this thriller. The four innocent wives who hit rock bottom in prison but came back out on top. Keep them coming James Patterson!

Jrtconnection

Guilty Wives. I've been a Patterson fan for years, but this book was a real disappointment. Save your money! Shallow, transparent - it's time to get back to writing books that were of the same quality of the earlier Cross novels and stop churning out mass produced junk to make a buck! Color me disappointed!
