Easy reading that was perfect for the beach
I loved the suspense and twists in this book. While there were some hints and foreshadowing, I could never really be sure about my suspicions until the authors confirmed them – or completely proved me wrong! Loved the different perspectives. I can’t wait to read the next collaboration by these incredible writers!
did NOT see the ending coming. Loved it!!
It seems almost impossible to get into much detail about this book without giving away one of the juicy plot twists. Overall, I really liked this book. I enjoyed the element of surprise that the plot contained. The authors kept me guessing and just when I thought I really understood a character, there would be a shift in the story that left me questioning everything I thought I knew!
Highly recommended!
It was very intriguing and just when I thought I had it figured out, something happened to change my thoughts. Surprising ended.
An entertaining, suspenseful read, though some of the backstory fell flat for me or seemed unnecessary (especially at the very end). Would definitely recommend, though!
I read it because it was a mystery that turned out to be a real mystery. You start and think you know what it’s going to be about and then it changes.

This was a book that someone recommended to me, I didn’t like it right away but kept reading. There was definitely some twists in the plot and I was surprised. Overall it is a good read.
Easily the scariest book I’ve read this year!
Fantastic read. Major twist that had me wondering what I had read. Easy and fast read.
So many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. Perfect read.
A must read! I had a hard time putting this down and will have withdrawals from reading it!
WOW!
This book was amazing. I could not put it down. I read it in one day because I had to know what was happening. And the ending? It’s the kind of ending that will have you thinking, holy hell. That was brilliant.
There is a dual POV between the past and the present women, Nellie and Vanessa. Both in love with the same man. One the ex, one the future Mrs.
It does start off a little slow but only because the authors are laying the background foundation. After that, it’s fast paced and it sucks you in. The twist at the end is absolutely stunning!
I’ve never read either of these authors before, but I will most definitely be looking into them now. Especially if they decide to co-write again.
The Wife Between Us is a very suspenseful, hard to put down domestic thriller. It’s incredibly well-written and engrossing, I was sucked into the story from the first page. One of the lines in the blurb is “Assume nothing” and it’s an excellent advice. Also, don’t read any spoilers or discussions before reading the book. For the best experience go in blind, you won’t be disappointed. The Wife Between Us is one of the best psychological thrillers I’ve read and is well worth the hype. I cannot wait to see the movie (which is already in development)
You think you figure it out. A divorce, a cheating husband, but wait, what? No you cannot think thisfar ahead.
Could not put this one down. Great book.
This was a good easy read – held my attention until the end.
The Wife Between Us is a Psychological Suspense Thriller that is a real page turner. I was a little confused in the first third of the book, but kept reading and everything started to come together. At first I thought the wife was crazy and the husband was controlling. The story has several twists that kept you turning the pages to try to figure out the ending. I never saw the ending coming. A great read. Thank you Netgalley and publisher for a copy of this book and this is my honest review.
When the book blurb says “assume nothing” they were not kidding around!! The twists in this book are so unpredictable in a good way! If you like a good psychological thriller you won’t be disappointed
I loved it, what an unexpected twist. Very creative plot. Well written and one that you can’t put down.
This artfully deceptive psychological thriller begins with an unbalanced ex-wife, obsessed with stopping the marriage of her ex. From there, expect the unexpected at each twist and turn! What I appreciated and found refreshing is that the story was neat and tidy, meaning there were no senseless left fielders that got pulled into the plot. You won’t regret reading this one!
