You think he might be having an affair - do you walk out or fight back? A fast-paced, gripping psychological thriller.

Mia has her life in order. She is a grown-up and enjoys a grown-up's relationship with Pete. Not passionate or spontaneous but solid. She knows he is 'the one'. But then she sees a text message on Pete's phone that throws her world into a spin. It is more than friendly, signed off with a kiss, and Mia has never heard of the sender, Liz.

With her carefully mapped out life sliding out of control Mia will discover a side to herself she never knew existed, as she formulates a plan to win her happy ending. Because all's fair in love and war - isn't it?

While a page turner....

Having gone through something very similar to this in my own life, it brought up a lot of old feelings and was a well told story. This book did keep me interested but looking back not much happened. I love this narrator, listened to this book just because of her, and she did not disappoint.

Very Vanilla

I found it difficult to stay interested. Not exactly a terrible book, but oh so forgettable. Disappointing as I really enjoyed another book by the same author.

Engrossing

If there was a mysterious love story, this is it. The twists & turns kept it from being cliche and the surprise ending kept it real. Highly recommended.

WOW...WELL DONE

You know those stories that you can’t judge until you’ve heard all the facts? On the surface, you think one thing but when you dig deeper, it’s another. Well, this book is exactly that. Filled with the right amount of drama to keep you interested while absolutely knowing this scenario could actually happen.
Must read!

Great book but.....

a rather strange ending. I hope there's going to be an additional book to answers & explain some of the questions and issues left open. Overall worth the purchase!

Not a psychological thriller

I listened expecting this to be twisty and dark. Although, twisty in it's own way, it was not thrilling. I will say it makes an interesting statement about relationships, honesty and expectations

outstanding!

An excellent book from beginning to end. No fillers, boiling bunny in a pot mad🐇

His Other Lover

I would not categorize this as a psychology thriller.

There were some decent parts, but it was painful to listen constantly to how sad/tired/unsure/exhausted/upset/confused/teary/bewildered/stillll tired and sad, etc., she is- allll the time.

It was just okay.

And warning, you will want to smack the lead character, tell her to get a backbone, and get on with her life.

Tons of eye rolls.

Narrator was great.

Boring and then just dumb with no real ending

Narrator was great for me. The story, however was just rather boring and still interesting all at the same time. I got to chapter 10 and then got annoyed and skipped to the end only to be way past annoyed at the end... no cliffhanger... just a dumb cliff. Ugh

Really really liked this

I’m surprised this doesn’t get better reviews, because I had a hard time turning it off. Yes, at several points you’ll be thinking “oh my gosh, just leave this loser!”, but there are twists and deeper meanings that will unwind slowly. The only thing that was too abrupt and felt like a loose end was... well.... the ending, which is unfortunate and prevented me from giving the “story” 4 stars. But, it was a slow burn and the primary conclusion and points of the story were made, so it really wasn’t about the “ending” (although I do LOVE a really good twisty wrap-up).
