She's looking for the perfect man. He's looking for the perfect victim. Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She's seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman―the latest in a string of deaths across the coast―confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them. Sydney should feel safe. After all, she is dating the guy of her dreams. But she can't shake her own suspicions that the perfect man may not be as perfect as he seems. Because someone is watching her every move, and if she doesn't get to the truth, she'll be the killer's next victim...

McFadden once again proves her mastery of the domestic thriller with a story that is equal parts witty, creepy, and utterly unputdownable. Sydney Shaw is a relatable heroine for anyone who’s ever been burned by modern dating. Her string of awful experiences makes you instantly root for her—and when she finally meets the perfect guy, it feels like a fairytale. That is, until the fairytale starts to unravel in the most chilling way. With a serial killer on the loose, and all signs pointing uncomfortably close to home, the suspense kicks into high gear. McFadden does a brilliant job building tension with short, punchy chapters and a plot that keeps the reader guessing until the very last page. Just when you think you’ve figured it out—boom! Another twist. And another. It’s the kind of thriller that messes with your head in the best possible way. With a perfect blend of dark humor, relatable dating drama, and spine-tingling suspense, The Boyfriend is a must-read for fans of Gillian Flynn, Lisa Jewell, or anyone who loves a thriller with a wicked sense of fun. A 5-star thrill ride from start to finish. #theboyfriend #booked_this_weekend ## Frequently Bought Together - The Boyfriend - The Perfect Son - Never Lie --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/609475884-the-boyfriend-a-twisty-psychological-thriller-from-the-author-housemaid](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/609475884-the-boyfriend-a-twisty-psychological-thriller-from-the-author-housemaid) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-17*
