The Influencer (A Psychological Thriller)

When her picture-perfect existence starts to fall apart, an influencer must decide how far she’s willing to go to get revenge and reclaim her life.

It didn’t take much for Shae Halston to reach influencer status. She manages a “faceless” Instagram account detailing her beautiful life on the California coast with her hotshot real-estate-agent husband, Dean. Her photographs document their fancy meals at the chicest restaurants and feature her neck-down figure wearing the most gorgeous clothes. But while Dean is busy selling million-dollar mansions, Shae becomes fixated on millions of her own—followers, that is.

In order to grow her audience, Shae hires sexy model Jesika to be the face of her Instagram alter ego, Mia Starr. Then the housing market starts to dry up, and everything changes. Now, Dean’s withdrawn and visibly stressed out, and Shae can no longer afford to take “Mia” to the kinds of places she went before or use the types of products that will score her deals with exclusive brands. Determined to wait out what she hopes is just a brief dip in their income, she’s shocked when Dean hands her divorce papers.

Suddenly, the ideal life Shae crafted for herself is shattered. But instead of tears, she embraces a fierce blaze of anger. And when she learns Dean has left her for none other than Jesika, it doesn’t take long for plans of revenge to solidify. Even the wise words of her therapist, Kelly, can’t make her see reason. It’s only a matter of time before she lights up her ex’s life—and her own—in flames.

The first book in the series from USA Today–bestselling author Adriane Leigh, The Influencer crackles with the narrator’s sarcastic sense of humor and increasingly unhinged quest for vengeance.
