My review:

*Possible spoilers ahead*

We’ve got another husband and wife story with secrets and betrayal and this one follows Fern & Drew.

Although Fern wasn’t particularly likable I was happy that she wasn’t a naive wife and had her own tricks up her sleeve. I did feel bad for her when Drew was saying how much he cared for Alice. He comes off as sleazy as he’s supposed to.

This one was super fast paced and kept me engaged. You pretty much know what’s going to happen from the prologue, which gives a lot away. I still did not see the twist coming though, but figured it out after the wink. I do like how that all played out. Nice epilogue too!

Narrated by Sarah Durham and David Wayman for 7 hours and 20 minutes. Sarah did an alright job, didn’t love her male voice, but was able to listen to her at 2.5x. David did an alright job too, but I had to slow him down to 2x for his chapters.

*Thanks to Daniel Hurst, Bookouture Audio and NetGalley for my audio copy. I am voluntarily leaving my honest review*

I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve read it.

Book blurb:

He thinks his secret is safe. But she knows the truth…

My husband is a doctor. He’s smart and charming and everybody trusts him. Except me.

On the surface, it looks like I have it all – the perfect marriage, the perfect husband, the perfect life. But it’s far from the truth.

Doctor Drew Devlin is not the respectable figure he makes out to be. The reason we moved to this beautiful, old property with a gorgeous view of the sea was because we needed to put our past behind us. It should’ve been a fresh start for us both.

Except I’ve discovered my husband has been lying to me again. He’s using the power he has in his job to mess with people’s lives, and to get exactly what he wants – no matter who it hurts.

But he’s underestimated me. I’ve had plenty of time, in this big, isolated house, to think about all of his mistakes.

And my husband has no idea what’s about to happen next…
