Cassie is about to marry Jamie but she finds out he’s cheating on her. Does she call off the wedding? Does she break up with him? This one kept me up late at night wanting to know what revenge, if any, she had in store for him. Jamie made me want to throw the book across the room a few times because he was a piece of work! A few twists throughout made this a great book to devour in 2 days. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this early release in exchange for my honest review. To be published 10/2022.

I seen this book offered on Facebook so I thought I'd give it a try. A few places were funny but most of it serious.
The only thing that I didn't like was this book was written in present tense style. Other than that, I loved the storyline.
It was very entertaining for sure and certain.
I found myself rooted to my seat through the wedding scene! It was my favorite part of the story because it's where truth and karma came out all at the same time which was why I liked it so much!
I must say my mouth dropped open when both hit all at once! Wowzers!
We get to find out just who lover boy Jamie really is and why he does what he does.
He's not what he seems and I think truth and justice prevails in the end. You can keep secrets but eventually they'll get leaked out by someone.
But there are scenes that will make you want to cry too so you might want to keep a box of tissues nearby.
Cheers to happy reading! I highly recommend this story!
5 stars for keeping me entertained.
My thanks for a copy of this book. I was NOT required to write a positive review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Thank you NetGalley and Kingsley Publishers for the copy of How To Destroy Your Husband. I wish the pace of this book was better. Cassie makes the decision to exact revenge as soon as she finds out Jaime was cheating but it would have made more sense for her to want revenge after the other things she learned. It was selfish of her to allow her friends and family to proceed with everything and be so excited for her. If you can buy that instead of just confronting him she would spend so much time and energy, you will like the description of how she planned to humiliate him. It was clever, but I didn't believe it. It's a good revenge thriller.

Cassie is a true-love skeptic who thinks she has found the perfect fiance in Jamie, but with only a month left before their wedding she finds out he is a liar and a cheat. Refusing to be played as a fool she decides to seek revenge.

I found myself holding my breath while reading this. There were so many close calls while Cassie was investigating Jamie's double-life and the tension keeps rising as we learn more about Jamie and get closer to the wedding date. I'd describe this novel as a fast-read, domestic thriller, feminist, and contemporary.

TW: infidelity, domestic violence

How To Destroy Your Husband is the second book published by Jess Kitching.
I was excited to see what was in store,it is a light thriller compared to The Girl She Was Before.

YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED

You are taken on an adventure through the eyes of Cassie, a woman who is just about to marry the man of her dreams… or so she thought… About a month out from the wedding her world is shattered into a million pieces. Jamie is not the loving devoted husband she thought he was. He was someone who lived a completely different life… One that involved a lot of other women…

Getting into the mind of Cassie was a roller coaster in itself, I felt I was able to live out my darkest fantasies of revenge through her. Taking me less than 24 hours to read-only confirms that I was hooked. I felt that I was there with Cassie trying to figure out the best way to handle the plan of attack. Although at times It was hard to agree with some of the choices she made. I have realised that a person with rage and blinded by betrayal is not someone you should cross!
All I wanted to do was find Jamie and sabotage him myself! Jess’s ability to make the reader so invested in a character is a talent in itself.

The ending brought this novel up to the 5 stars out of 5 it deserves! Hoping there might be a sequel!

Cassie has the perfect life, with a wonderful fiance and great job. A life she could never have dreamed of. But with less than a month before her wedding, she finds her finance is cheating. Rather than just dumping him, she wants revenge and a twisted adventure unfolds with Cassie delving deeper into Jamie's background, making her realise she barely knows this man she is meant to marry. 

This was such a page turner and so entertaining in seeing the lengths Cassie went to in order to exact her revenge. As the story goes along there are plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing and towards the end I could not put this down! Another fabulous instalment by the author.

How To Destroy Your Husband by Jess Kitching was super addictive.

The suspense builds at a quick pace in this story, with plenty of dark twists.
Jess Kitching created some brilliant characters. Who had me wanting so much more of this story.
Talk about being thrown in from the get-go! I couldn’t flip the pages fast enough to read more…
Had me reading well into the night
And her writing. Damn it was captivating.
I was hooked from beginning to end, and would highly recommend to fans of domestic thrillers.

After Cassie swears she will never fall in love, she meets Jamie and throws all of that out the window. A month before her dream wedding to her dream man, Cassie finds out he is cheating with a colleague. Instead of breaking off the engagement, she sets out to seek revenge.
Let’s start with this author- this is my first book by Jess Kitching and I really love her writing style. I thought this would be a classic revenge plot- but it’s not! There are so many twists and turns and the last 25% of the book had me racing through to see what would happen with the characters. It didn’t go anywhere near how I thought. It brings up moral dilemmas and really questions how much damage done in revenge still leaves you as the “good” one? The ending had me wanting more and I hope there is a sequel as I have some unanswered questions!
Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and Jess Kitching for the opportunity to receive an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This was so good I could literally explode.
I actually screamed out loud when we got to the wedding part. I screamed! I was not expecting any of it and I am usually a good book guesser.
Jamie was the evilest of all the evil. GAH.
The book has this tension that builds up consistently until the wedding, but even then it is twisty. I would hang out with Cass and love every second of it.

Very good book, I thought it was going to be a cut and dry how to make someone pay for what they did to you. I had no clue it was going to be this involved with the characters. Great story that makes you want to keep reading. Cassie in the beginning seems to be very complacent, but she actually is constantly thinking about how to get even with her fiance, who seems to be an absolute horrible human being who is just evil.

An interesting version on the revenge theme. Who is the victim, who is the villain and what does it take out of you to plot out an extensive revenge? It is a good distraction from facing the truth of who he is and who you are or isn't it. An engaging well written psychological thriller 4.5

This book was a true page turner, as the plans develop and the relationship unravels! The writing is clear and concise, with wonderful description of the emotions a woman feels after betrayal!

Just WOW! This was brilliant! Jess Kitching knocks this one out of the park. I totally enjoyed this book and could not stop turning the pages. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I am just worn out after binge reading late into the night. Huge twists, turns and outrageous reveals.
Highly recommend!
