Fern is married to a doctor, his name is Drew. On the surface, it looks like they have the perfect marriage, but in reality, Drew is a cheat and a liar. He uses his occupation to mess with people and he will do whatever it takes to get closer to his mistress. But what he does not know is that his wife also has plans, and they are far different from his...

This compelling thriller had me entertained from the beginning to the end. The writing is straightforward so you have no time to feel bored. The narration shifts between two points of view, making the story even more interesting because we get to have fern's point of view as well as her husband's. I loved the twists and the surprises that keep coming as the story unfolds.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

Daniel Hurst's book never disappoints, and this one is no exception. Full of shocking twists and shocking turns. Recommended.

Fast paced thrillers is what you can expect from Daniel Hurst's books and this one is no exception. The prologue draws you in and before you know it the book is read.
Dr Drew Devlin persuades his wife Fern to move to the peaceful Scottish border for a quieter life, but he has an ulterior motive, but unknown to him so does his wife. Both keeping secrets from each other,this culminates in tragedy........but for who?
A great read

Thriller! Twist I did not see coming. I wanted to know what was going to happen. I like the different point of views.

Moving away will solve all your problems? Or make them worse? Daniel Hurst kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time with these characters. I truly feel this could be a sequel and the story is not over yet.

The characters fit well together and nothing is dragged out like some thrillers. Has a great twist that I was not expecting. Highly recommend!

I very much enjoyed this book and finished it in a few days. Lots of twists and an ending not expected. My first book by the author but will check out others.

I just finished reading The Doctor’s Wife, and I thoroughly enjoyed it! After reading Daniel Hurst’s The New Year’s Party (and wow, that was a great way to start the New Year), my first work from this author, I knew I had to find more of his books!

The Doctor’s Wife is a domestic thriller where deception, betrayal, and revenge are the driving forces behind a very twisted plot! Be forewarned, this book will grab you from the beginning and keep you up late into the night to see the story to its end!! And what an end!!

Thank you to NetGalley, Daniel Hurst, and the publishers at Bookouture for giving me the early release of this book! I appreciate your trusting me with an honest review!!

A really good read, I could get into his books as I really enjoyed this one, I look forward to reading more titles when they come out

Drew is a doctor. Fern is his wife. They have just moved from the city to the country. Drew wanted to move to be closer to his mistress who ended things a year ago and is also married. He's not ready for their affair to be over and hopes to start anew. Little does he know Fern is very aware of his little side hustle. But it remains to be seen what she will do about it . . .

Drew is an arrogant, self entitled prick. I could not stand him. He thinks he's better and smarter than everyone around him. Fern was more of a mystery. She wasn't really an individual. She had no identity outside of Drew. She's so head-over-heels for Drew and sees his role as a doctor more like that of a king which is absurd when finding out how rude he is with her. How little he cares for her. Why stay with a guy like that? Why fight for him against his mistress? Especially when she apparently has dirt on him that could ruin him.

Despite all that, I kept reading because I so wanted to know what was coming around the bend. Alice and Rory were a big part of the suspense. Alice clearly wants nothing to do with either of them which is interesting because they both want a piece of her and can't seem to leave her alone. Rory, on the other hand, is a mystery, one I was intrigued to uncover. So glad I kept reading this.

Many thanks to #NetGalley and #Bookouture for and #ARC of #TheDoctorsWife.
A married couple have made the decision to improve their quality of life, unfortunately that doesn't last long.
Taken through the perspective of both Fern and Drew, we discover how they are settling in to their new lives, or not.
An enjoyable book that gives many twists, even when you feel like there can't be any more to come. Recommended read

I enjoyed this book it took me a while to get into the plot I thought I could see where it was going but I was wrong great twist I did like the characters or did I I had a feeling about one of them was I right too you have to read to see the plot was easy to see you pulled into it
I found it easy to read the writing style easy to follow good characters place sounds so nice a good community
I recommend you read it good

A fantastically engaging domestic thriller with complex characters, twists galore, and a tight plot. A real page turner, so well written.

Thank you to NetGalley, Bookouture and Daniel Hurst for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Fern is the wife of a successful doctor named Drew, who is having an affair with Alice. Alice moves up north with her husband Rory after ending the affair, but Drew isn't done just yet so he convinced Fern to also move to the small village so he can be closer to Alice. He thinks Fern is none the wiser about his affair, but little does he know, she does know and isn't happy about it.

The book alternates between Fern and Drew's points of view, and I really enjoyed seeing the stark contrast of their situation. This book was easy reading, with twists and turns I didn't expect. I'm wondering if there will be a sequel by the ending.

While I enjoyed this, the ended pretty much how I expected it to. There weren't any edge-of-the-seat moments. The story developed well over a period of time, and the book offered a few flash-back moments to fill in the blanks. The characters were fine--not exactly my favorites, but I didn't hate them either.

Overall, the book kept me engaged, and I feel it was worth 4 stars.

I started reading this book and finished it within 2 hours, even though I only intended on reading a chapter or two. This book immediately grips you and I really enjoyed how each chapter takes turn being in the perspective of each main character. There are a lot of twists and turns in the book which I thoroughly enjoyed, the only negative is that everything happens so quickly and is very fast paced which makes it a little bit unbelievable at times. Overall, a good read and I would definitely recommend!

I received an ARC from NetGalley and I enjoyed this book. It had twists and turns and head games between characters. To see who is keeping secrets and what each one actually knows is true. It keeps you going until the end. Thanks NetGaley

Great read! The pages just seemed to keep on turning and then before I knew it I had finished the book!

Doctor Drew Devlin and his wife Fern appear to others to have the perfect life, but they both are keeping secrets not only from others but also each other. Drew tells Fern that he would like an easier work life and suggests to her that they move to a quiet seaside place but it’s the same village that Alice a former woman he had an affair with has moved to with her husband in order to make a fresh start.
Drew is not the caring family person who you would normally associate as a GP. His stalking, lies and outlandish behaviour I found irritating to say the least. The plot was fast paced and held my attention.
My thanks to Bookouture and Net Galley for the ARC of this novel.

After finishing a heavy tome, with lots of characters, I wanted to read something not too complicated. The Doctor's Wife was exactly what I needed. I like Daniel Hursts' books because they follow the same pattern. We are introduced to the main characters (in this case, Drew Devlin and his wife Fern) before we are introduced to some other characters (in this case, Drews ex-lover and her husband) and then things get rolling. Being told from different viewpoints, the story unfolds quite fast and before we know it, it’s clear that not all characters are very reliable. On the contrary.
It’s not a spoiler to say that I didn’t like either of the four main characters. Drew thinks he’s a great doctor but it soon becomes clear the only thing he likes about his work is the money. Fern is a typical spoiled and lazy woman who loves just spending Drew’s money and watch daytime tv – she has no ambition at all. The other two we do not get to know very well; she is ‘Drews lover’ and he is ‘her husband’ but I cannot picture them well.
Despite this, I finished the book in one sitting because it was exactly what I needed: not too complicated a story with – for me anyway – no big surprises or twists.

This was a quick read. I found it fairly predictable and did not feel particularly engaged with the characters. It had a couple of twists to keep interest. Sadly not for me.
