Suzi and Nora are new neighbors and Suzi is so glad to finally have someone close by to talk to. She’s pregnant and her husband is a jealous control freak. Of course, Suzi isn’t perfect either, she’s done some things she’s not proud of, and now that she has a new friend, she’s tempted to confide in her. And that could be a deadly mistake. Then there’s Elle, living a perfect life, at least on the surface. The truth is that her husband has cheated on her, but she’s worked hard to have the perfect life and doesn’t plan on giving it up, no matter what she has to do, no matter who she has to hurt.

Suzi lives a lonely life in a desolate countryside home with her husband Nick. When Nora moves into the abandoned neighboring house, Suzi quickly befriends her, happy to have company and a friend to talk with. What Suzi doesn’t know is that Nora is the wife of her lover who moved to the abandoned home for revenge.

Secrets, lies, affairs, murder, and gaslighting-this book has it all. A quick and suspenseful read that kept me guessing how their lives would intertwine.

I received an advance readers copy in exchange for an honest review.

I really wanted to like this one because this kind of domestic thriller is exactly my thing. But the writing and the pacing could not suck me in, entertain me, or distract me. And that is exactly what I’m looking for in a domestic thriller. Barely enjoyable

A Brilliant Winner! One of the best books I have read this year!

Along with the main characters - Elle, Nora and Suzi is a plot designed to dazzle!

Nick, Suzi's controlling husband, has her basically imprisoned (and pregnant) in their home in the country. A neighbor, Nora, moves in and befriends Suzi. This is when the action really begins!

We see three personalities and their drive to get what they want - not to mention what they've already had!

HIGHLY recommend! Well developed characters, lots of plot action, suspense, and plenty of drama.

Many Thanks to Amazon Publishers, UK and NetGalley for a superb read!

The Other Wife is incredible! Following Suzi, Nora and Elle with each chapter starting from their points of view it can be a little difficult to begin but once I’d learnt a little about each character and their stories I was hooked! There’s a few twists but the one at 75% through absolutely blew my mind! Wow, what a plot!
You have to pick this up, the suspense is ever building and it’s one hell of a great story,
5/5
