Praise for THE BETRAYAL:
“This is definitely a page turner (I stayed up way too late because I just couldn’t put it down!!), and there’s enough romance to keep your heart fluttering.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed a book as much as THE BETRAYAL. I’ve always been a huge Kathryn Shay fan mainly because her books are unique, meaningful and never trite. This one is no exception. If you enjoy good writing, love stories and suspense like I do, fire up your Kindle and start this book. You won’t be disappointed.”
“Kathryn Shay is no typical romance writer, but she sure does know how to paint a hot love scene with words!!”

Nice and quick read
Great book. Kept my interest throughout
Great read. Always looking forote of her books
This is the most interesting book I have read in a long time!!
I really enjoyed this book. Can’t wait to see more of this author.
Betrayal was certainly a great name for this book. You start with a 15 yr old girl who’s been abused by her stepfather and mom doesn’t believe her. So of course she’s smart enough to run away. Her story goes on from there. She grows up still being betrayed except for her young white knight, until her betrays her too.
She needs a better editor, nobody corrected typos/spelling .
Well written and made me cringe in the beginning as it deals with a teen raped by stepfather. Good character development.
Would make a good movie
I really loved this story. I had a hard time putting it down.
I loved it!
This one just couldn’t hold my attention.
Thought it was a good; held my attention.
Unexpected story line
I loved the character development throughout the book. Very compelling story line and easily relatable. Intriguing and haunting at times without being frightening. The author kept the reader guessing until the end.
I have read many Kathryn Shays books a thought everyone was great. This book I didn’t like, it was long, too many characters, and quite unbelievable. Just didn’t seem like one of her books. Took me a while to finish it, whereas her other books I couldn’t find a stopping point and couldn’t put them down.
Although the pacing was a bit choppy in the final third, I understood that the author was trying to tie everything up. Despite that, and the stretch to include some of the gang actions, I still rated it a five because it captured me from the beginning with its originality and multiple betrayals. My career was working with at-risk youth so I am pleased when they are depicted accurately and with compassionate understanding.
I loved this book! The characters have so much depth. I loved meeting the characters as teenagers and seeing the way their lives evolved through adulthood. It was a real page turner. Anytime I put the book down I kept wondering about the characters.
Totally riveting. A page turner. Superb writing. This book has it all intrigue, suspense, romance, murder, and a happy ending. Awesome reading!!!
