Blog Tour - His Ex Wife


Publication date 23rd October 2024
About the book
She wants him back. I want her gone.

I’ve never felt welcome in my husband 
Dominic’s family home. His parents make it clear I’m a poor comparison to his perfect first wife, Carla. But we’re here for Christmas, so it’s important to pretend everything is fine. Until Dominic’s mother bustles into our bedroom. Smiling thinly, she blindsides me: ‘You won’t mind, will you. Carla is coming for the holidays. She’s still one of the family to us, and she can’t get home because of the storm.’

My eyes widen – did she and Carla plan this on purpose? I know Dominic won’t say a thing. He never stands up to his parents. Apart from marrying me, I guess – with my past, I wasn’t exactly what his family wanted. But then I see the smallest hint of satisfaction cross his face. Did he know about this too?

When Carla arrives, her beautiful smile doesn’t fool me. And with the howling snowstorm promising days of ice-white isolation, we’re stuck here. It’s quickly clear that not only does she want Dominic back, she wants me gone. Forever…

But what neither she nor Dominic know, and his family can never guess, is that I’m far, far tougher than they give me credit for. I’ve survived before.
 If I have to, I would kill to survive again…

This tense, twisted and utterly gripping psychological thriller is filled with deadly family secrets hiding in plain sight. Perfect for fans of Daniel Hurst, The Housemaid and Lisa Jewell.

My Review
Just when you think this author can’t get any better BOOM she’s brings out another spectacular psychological thriller and I definitely think this is their best yet.
So the book is based on a newly married couple facing their first married Christmas at the in law’s and already you can sense it’s all going to go wrong. From the minute they arrive at Dominic’s parents house I went into fear mode and I was scared and frightened for Natalie. I dreaded to think what was coming.
With every chapter I grew more and more addicted and absolutely struggled to pull myself away from this book. It’s completely terrifying and gripping.
I will definitely be recommending this book.
