Millstone Falls #1
The People You Trust
A disgraced celebrity chef lands in small-town upstate New York alongside her youngest sister, no plan, and nothing left to lose — until grief, complicated loyalties, and a forbidden attraction threaten the one thing she didn't expect to find: a reason to rebuild.
Rose Sullivan Montgomery. Michelin star, dead husband, ruined career. The acquittal was supposed to end the story, but the court of public opinion doesn't honor verdicts, and America's former culinary darling knows exactly what they still call her: a murderer capitalizing on rich people immunity. So she retreats to Millstone Falls with her dog Eamon, her sister Billie down the road, and a talent for kneading the past into shapes almost bearable. The fantasies are harder to manage. They keep circling back to her eldest sister's husband, the magnetic Mark Mulroney.
Two nights before her birthday, a reluctant evening out yanks Rose from her cocoon of safety, straight into the arms of Cain Hawkings, a developer gentrifying the town. What was supposed to be a fleeting distraction quickly turns sour when his interest grows too intense to stay casual, his knowledge too personal for a fan, his actions too hauntingly familiar to ignore. If the last five years taught her anything, it was to be wary of the things pretty on the outside. She was about to learn she'd been living on less truth and more a carefully plated version of it.
And some things, once exposed to heat, don't transform. They burn.
The People You Trust is the first novel in the Millstone Falls series, a contemporary romantic psychological suspense. For fans of Tarryn Fisher, Kate Stewart, and Lucinda Berry.
Tropes: slow-burn romance, forbidden attraction, brother-in-law, age gap, small town setting, second chance, sister banter, family secrets.
Note: This novel sits with hard things. Please take care if you're sensitive to pregnancy loss, suicidal ideation, or themes typical of the genres above.

I just finished my ARC of The People You Trust by K.T. George, and I need to get all my thoughts out while they're still fresh in my head. If you love a suspense thriller with heavy family dynamics, high tension, and bite-sized chapters, you're definitely going to want this one on your radar!
What Stood Out & What I Loved
1. The Pacing & Chapter Structure: Can we normalize short chapters in thrillers forever? The short chapter setup made this read so fast and kept me hitting "just one more chapter" late into the night.
2.Thoughtful Content Warnings: I really appreciated that K.T. George included trigger warnings upfront. While you expect dark themes in a suspense thriller, having an author take the time to lay that out for reader safety is a massive plus in my book.
3.The Sisterhood & Banter: Hands down, the best part of this book is the sibling dynamic. Nothing beats seeing sisters who genuinely have each other's backs no matter what. Their banter felt so natural, funny, and warm amidst all the surrounding chaos.
4.Quirky Details & Chemistry: Rose’s collection of sarcastic graphic tees made me chuckle throughout the story,it added so much personality to her character. Also, the romantic tension and subtle comedic misunderstandings (like Rose misreading a group of fans in a diner) hit just right.
5.High-Octane Suspense: When this book turns up the heat, it really turns it up. The high-intensity action scenes were written brilliantly,there were moments where my mouth literally dropped open and I caught myself saying, "Wait, WHAT?!"
Room for Growth & Personal Preferences
1.The Early Character Setup: The first few chapters felt a bit overwhelming with the sheer number of side characters introduced all at once. It took me a little while to figure out everyone’s connection to the main storyline, though things do clear up as you push through.
2.Emotional Pacing & Tone: This was my biggest critique. The author excels at writing fun sibling banter, spicy tension, and fast-paced action. However, when heavy tragedy strikes, the emotional aftermath felt a little flat to me. The characters seemed to move on faster than expected, which made it hard to fully grieve with them or feel that deep emotional weight during sad moments.
3.Main Character Processing: Rose goes through absolute hell in this book. She is remarkably resilient, and I admire how she keeps standing tall. Personally, if I went through half of what she did, I probably would have gone a little "unhinged" or had a few full-on breakdown moments! Seeing a more chaotic, unhinged side to her trauma would have been super interesting, but I respect the direction the author chose for her steady composure.
The ending brought so many explosive jaw-droppers and wild turns that I didn't see coming. Despite a few tonal hiccups, K.T. George crafted a super engaging thriller with a solid core of family loyalty and relentless drama.
I’m left with so many questions about where everyone stands and what's next for these characters. I am definitely looking forward to picking up Book 2 to see how everything unfolds!

If you’re a fan of suspense thrillers with intricate family dynamics, high tension, and bite-sized chapters, this book is definitely for you! When the book ramps up the suspense, it truly delivers. The high-intensity action scenes are brilliantly written, leaving me in suspense and often saying, “WHAAAT?!”
The story starts with us meeting Rose ‘Chef Sully’ Sullivan Montgomery, a Michelin-starred and a reality-star chef. She had it all until a random attack in Central Park left her with a traumatic brain injury and a tremor in her hand. One of Rose’s sisters, Sydney runs Spin World and is married to Mark Mulroney. The other sister, Billie is an art dealer with a successful gallery in Millstone Falls, NY. After Rose graduated high school, she had plans to tour Europe. Before she leaves, she steps in as a bridesmaid for Sydney at Mark’s cousin’s wedding. During the weekend, Mark’s family jokes that he married the wrong sister, but the age gap and their attraction don’t seem to bother either of them.
When a problem arises with the wedding catering, Rose steps in and discovers her passion for cooking. Her European trip turns into eight years abroad, where she trains and becomes a Michelin-star chef and later a celebrity chef with her own show. However, her life takes a dark turn when she is attacked during a run in Central Park and suffers a traumatic brain injury. With this injury, it effectively ending her culinary career.
She meets and marries her neurosurgeon, Dr. Finnegan Montgomery, who is later killed in their apartment. Rose is accused of his murder and loses their baby boy, Ciaran, in utero, while incarcerated in Rikers Island. Throughout it all, her brother-in-law Mark stands by her. While it’s considered unthinkable to desire your sister’s husband, the story takes on even more complexity. This was just another challenge of many she faced. But with Mark…Yes, Mark!
The ending delivered numerous unexpected jaw-dropping moments and wild twists that left me utterly surprised. K.T. George has masterfully crafted an engaging thriller that revolves around a strong core of family loyalty and relentless drama. The structure made this book feel incredibly fast-paced, keeping me hooked and frantically turning pages late into the night. I can’t wait to see what book 2 in Millstone Falls has instore for us.

Review of advance copy received from Author
The People You Trust by K.T. George is a psychological thriller that grabs your attention. This is only her second book, but she already shows real promise.
The story centers on Sully-Rose Sullivan Montgomery, a reality-star chef. Her parents, Henry and Helen, have four daughters: Sydney, Ivy, Billie, and Rose. The sisters are very close and always support each other. Sydney runs Spin World and is married to Mark Mulroney. Ivy is a vegan with a mystical side, able to hear animals and read minds. Billie is an art dealer with a successful gallery in Millstone Falls, NY. After graduating high school, Rose plans to tour Europe. Before she leaves, she steps in as a bridesmaid for Sydney at Mark’s cousin’s wedding. During the weekend, Mark’s family jokes that he married the wrong sister, but the age gap and their attraction don’t seem to bother either of them. When a problem comes up with the wedding catering, Rose helps out and discovers her passion for cooking. Her European trip turns into eight years abroad, where she becomes a Michelin-star chef and later a celebrity with her own show. Rose’s life takes a dark turn when she is attacked during a run in Central Park and suffers a traumatic brain injury. She meets and marries her neurosurgeon, Dr. Finnegan Montgomery, who is later killed in their apartment. Rose is accused of his murder and loses their baby boy, Ciaran, while in Rikers Island. Throughout it all, her brother-in-law Mark stands by her, teaching her self-defense and helping as part of her legal team.
Wanting your sister’s husband is usually considered taboo, but the story has even more layers and characters who may or may not play a big role.
Overall, The People You Trust is a gripping book with plenty of twists and interesting characters. If you like psychological thrillers that dig into family drama and ambition, you’ll probably enjoy this one. K.T. George is an author to watch, and I’m excited to see what she does next.

Review of advance copy received from Author
I've never been more pleased to have been approached by an author to read their book than on this occasion.
This book was hard to put down. It is a complicated, many-layered story of a woman who goes through more than most.
Rose 'Chef Sully' Sullivan, a Michelin starred chef had it all then loses everything after a random attack in Central Park left her with a traumatic brain injury and a tremour in her hand. This was just the first of many problems she has to face. Another being the fact that she picks up a dangerous stalker.
"Once people stopped gathering around tables, stopped breaking bread with neighbors, and started consuming content to fill the void, empathy perished."
At first I found Rose difficult to follow until I realized that her thought process reflects rather accurately someone with a TBI. Kudos to the author for authenticity.
So much happens in this book that the reader is left spinning, but it's a compelling story despite a shocking occurrence just over halfway through the book.
The relationship between the four sisters is heartening and their banter and different personalities help make this book a joy to read.
Her love interest is himself a complicated character which makes the story even richer.
I still had one or two questions by the end. There is no cliffhanger but this book will have a follow up, and I am determined not to miss it.
I like this author enough to want to read her back catalogue. If you like more than just a romance, give this a try. You won't be disappointed.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book and am leaving a completely honest review.

The People You Trust was a wild ride. There is a lot happening in this story, but somehow I kept turning the pages because I needed to know what was coming next.
Rose Sullivan is a Michelin-starred chef whose life changes after a random attack leaves her with a traumatic brain injury and a hand tremor. Then she finds herself dealing with a stalker, and things only get more complicated from there. I really liked how Rose’s TBI was portrayed. It took me a little while to understand her thought process, but once I did, it felt intentional and added another layer to her character.
The sisterhood was probably my favorite part. The four sisters had such a believable relationship, and their banter brought some much-needed humor to an otherwise heavy story. I also loved the little details that gave Rose personality, especially her collection of sarcastic graphic tees. 😂
The suspense was definitely the strongest part for me. There were several twists that genuinely caught me off guard, and the last half had me flying through the pages. The love interest also added an interesting layer to the story, and I enjoyed seeing how their relationship developed.
My biggest issue was the emotional pacing. Rose goes through a lot, but some of the heavier moments felt like they moved on too quickly. I wanted more time to sit with the aftermath and really feel the weight of what had happened.
Overall, The People You Trust was a fast-paced, complicated thriller with strong family dynamics, plenty of twists, and enough suspense to keep me hooked. It definitely kept me guessing, and that alone made it worth the ride.

Gripping, haunting, and impossible to put down, this debut stays with you long after the last page! 🔥🌲
Rose Sullivan Montgomery arrives in Millstone Falls broken, her reputation destroyed, her husband gone, the public still calling her a murderer. She’s come to hide, to heal, to find quiet… but small towns hold secrets, and her new home is no exception. Grief, guilt, and a forbidden, tangled pull toward her brother-in-law Mark keep her off-balance, until developer Cain Hawkings enters the picture, and his interest feels less like attraction and more like a trap 🕯️🖤
Every layer peels away slowly, what’s real, what’s carefully polished, who’s telling the truth and who’s protecting themselves. The slow-burn tension is unbearable in the best way; suspicion simmers beneath every interaction, and the realisation that nothing and no one, is as it seems hits like a shockwave. This isn’t just romance; it’s a reckoning, with the past, with family, and with the lies we tell to keep everyone safe 💔🔥
The writing is lush, sharp, and deeply emotional, Rose’s voice feels so raw and human, her sister bond so real, and the danger closing in feels inevitable. It’s about how easy it is to trust the pretty version of things… and how fast everything burns when the truth hits the light. The ending leaves you breathless and desperate for more 🌪️✨
If you crave slow-burn suspense tangled with forbidden longing, buried family secrets, and a heroine who’s been painted as the villain and might just be the only one who sees clearly, this is essential reading. Millstone Falls has claimed me completely ✨

Waw! This is an explosion of flavors. Ok I was lucky to be an Arc reader with this book. I read about everything. This did not disappoint. This was like watching a movie. The things this woman Rose went through. 😳 Husband murdered, loses a child, accused of murder… Lucky she has Mark her brother in law to help…. You know those sweets you have to suck to get to the middle and boom explosion of that good sour. That’s this book. I’m still flabbergasted about the layers on layers of all these people in her life. This is a die hard thriller, suspence, family banter, drama, spice… and Mark. Yeah Mark…
This made me cry at one point dammit. But loved it.

Kudos to the author for having a character accurately portrayed with a traumatic brain injury - the way you really had to follow and realize this is why we’re thinking like that…so realistic.
Rose Sullivan or “Chef Sully” was a Michelin starred chef in the height of her career. After a random attack in Central Park left her with a TBI and a tremor, her career is over. Not only that but she’s also picked up a rather dangerous stalker.
There’s so much that happens within these pages! You’ll have to keep up but definitely worth the read. Thank you K.T. George and BookSirens for the early read. All opinions are my own.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
This author has a great flare in her writing. The banter between characters was a lot of fun to read. It could have been a little shorter and still had the same bang. I liked the complicated family dynamics but also wondered if some of it was hard to believe. A little smutty but had a storyline that had me want to keep reading. A solid 3.5 stars since I feel this author is going to keep growing and excited what she publishes next. No spoilers here. 🤫

Rose a known chef accused of murder and exonorated. She goes through a lot of turmoil. Who is she to trust? This book has a lot of leaving you thinking one person did it and at the end a surprise. So many lies that unravel truths of people you thought you knew.
