About the Book

Fixer Upper meets Gone Girl in this suspenseful and witty domestic thriller set in the world of home renovation TV--featuring a woman who becomes public enemy #1 after a horrifying discovery prompts her to flee her celebrity husband with their twin babies. Dawn Decker is an American everywoman and the salt to her husband Wyatt's sweet, media-friendly charm on their Tennessee-based home renovation reality TV show, The Perfect Home. While Dawn bristles at the trappings of their D-list celebrity status, Wyatt hungers for greater fame. The couple also faces infertility issues stemming from Wyatt's low sperm count. He secretly orders experimental fertility drugs, and they conceive, but his personality takes a dark turn--he becomes moody, withdrawn, and even cruel. When Dawn discovers his horrifying plot to manufacture a tragedy in order to skyrocket their celebrity status, she takes their infant twins and goes on the run. Wyatt appears on national television to turn the public against her, painting Dawn as an unstable kidnapper suffering from postpartum psychosis. His charm is so compelling that even Dawn's closest friends doubt her. She will have to dig deep into the past--both hers and Wyatt's--to find allies, protect her children, and beat this beloved all-American celebrity at his own game. Told in dual perspectives from both husband and wife, this smart, captivating, and twisty thriller is a fun, addictive read from the very first page.

Review :
Praise for The Perfect Home "This book had me shocked, despondent and furious in turns, and I loved it. Kenitz crafts a terrifying modern-day villain and turns the perfect home into a nightmare with proficiency and horrifying pizzazz." --Associated Press "If you've always thought there was a strangely dark undercurrent to home-improvement shows, you might enjoy The Perfect Home too." --NPR "Fast-paced." --Brit + Co "If you are looking for an addictive novel, you have found the perfect prescription for a thriller that delivers!" --Pamela Klinger-Horn, Shelf Awareness "Switching back and forth between the couple's perspectives, this diverting thriller is full of twists and evokes Gone Girl by way of Chip and Joanna Gaines." --Booklist "Wickedly entertaining... sharp, unpredictable, and chock-full of suspense, this domestic thriller expertly toys with readers' sympathies." --Publishers Weekly "The pages fly by... an entertaining debut from a promising writer." --Kirkus "A dark and twisting cat-and-mouse tale in which a marriage set in the public's glaring eye turns into a real killer. Addictive and utterly compelling, The Perfect Home is a brilliant exploration of the razor-sharp line between love and hate, and the difference between truth and fiction." --Christina McDonald, USA Today Bestselling author of What Lies In Darkness "A unique and enthralling thriller from a great new voice in the genre. Kenitz takes a wrecking ball to the fable of the perfect home while at the same time skewering the culture of fame. Both dark and fun with twists you won't see coming. A killer debut." --Alex Finlay, bestselling author of If Something Happens to Me
