My Husband's Secret
by Karen Clarke
My Husband’s Secret
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Genre: Thriller
Format: Kindle eBook
Date Published: 6/30/22
Author: Karen Clarke
Publisher: HQ Digital
Pages: 293
Goodreads Rating: 3.97
I requested a digital advanced readers copy from NetGalley and HQ Digital and providing my opinion voluntarily and unbiased.
Synopsis: Jack has been in a hit and run accident. He has no memory of why he left Caitlin, no clue about his new family who are worried he’s missing, and no recollection of the phone call he made two weeks ago – I made a terrible mistake that I can’t put right. All I can do is get out. Jack is different to the man that walked out a year ago – his mood seems more volatile, and Caitlin is certain he is hiding a secret of his own. But Caitlin finally has her husband by her side and with Jack suffering from amnesia, surely the easiest thing would be to stay quiet… but can you really trust a man who simply vanished from your life?
My Thoughts: The story is narrated by Caitlin and Lydia, from their perspectives. The story does start out slow but quickly picks up. I love the dual narration as you get both sides of the equation, but then you have to weed out the truth. The characters were well developed with depth, emotion, mysterious, and work together well, not everyone is likable. The author does a brilliant job of playing off each of the women’s personality. The author’s writing style was complex, twisty, suspenseful, and gripping. It was a fast paced, page turning (after the initial slow start) that I read quickly. The story is built well, starts with character building and backstory filling, has multiple twisty layers to the plot, and the ending was a bit of a intertwined web, but brilliant. Clarke’s writing makes you feel like you are right there in the scene with the characters, and I love that. This is a first author for me, but will not be a last. If you like a good domestic thriller, I would recommend picking up this book that was released last month.
