Today I am really excited to bring you my blogtour review of ‘‘The Second Wife’ by Sheryl Browne, published by Bookouture.

About The Book

 

She made her bed. You’ll lie in it.

Rebecca only wanted to help out – to be kind. Richard seemed so alone after his wife, Nicole, died, and Rebecca wanted to make sure he knew he had someone to rely on.

But now she’s in Nicole’s immaculate house. Drinking from her favourite crystal wine glass. Keeping shoes in her orderly closet. Comforting her sweet and grieving step-daughter. It feels like Rebecca is living another woman’s life.

And as she gets to know the neighbours, Rebecca hears stories that make her wonder: was free-spirited Nicole happy in this perfect life, or did she feel trapped? Did she feel, as Rebecca is beginning to, that something wasn’t quite right?

The book everyone’s talking about! If you loved The Girl on the TrainThe Wife Between Us and The Girl Before, you’ll be totally gripped and unable to put down this twisty page-turning psychological thriller.

WOW!

I totally agree with all of the above!

This is the first-but definitely not the last-book I will read by Sheryl Browne if they are all like ‘The second Wife’.

The second wife of the title is Nicole,who was hoping that her marriage to Richard would be everything that her first was not-love,happiness and children were all she ever wanted.

So why did she kill herself?

And what is the real story of his first wife’s death?

Rebecca,Nicole’s childhood best friend,full of regret for drifting apart, has her suspicions.

Richard, his daughter Olivia, and their perfect house and life look just too good to be true…or is there something even darker and more deadly than anyone could guess at beneath the gleaming veneer?

Told in alternating timelines of Nicole’s last year and Rebecca of now,it races forward until both stories collide and then goes.on to a stunning finale I did not see coming.

My thanks to Bookouture and Sheryl Browne for having me on the blogtour!

 

About The Author

Bestselling Author, Sheryl Browne, brings you powerful psychological thriller and contemporary fiction.  A member of the Crime Writers’ Association and the Romantic Novelists’ Association, and previously writing for award winning Choc Lit, Sheryl has several books published and two short stories in Birmingham City University anthologies, where she completed her MA in Creative Writing.

So why does Sheryl write in two genres? Quoting E. L. Doctorow, Sheryl says: “Writing a novel is like driving a car at night. You can only see as far as your headlights…” This she thinks sums up a writer’s journey, you never quite know where you are going until you get there. You might start with an outline, but a strong character will always divert from the plot. If Sheryl’s not sure where a character is going, she simply has to trust him to show her the way. Plus, according to one reviewer, she also has a scary insight into the mind of a psychopath.
