THE THIN LINE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE HAS BEEN CROSSED.

Eunice


I've always had this idea of what a marriage should be like, how it should feel. Bliss, happiness, love, lust. And I've experienced it all...until one moment changed everything. Now, because of him, I realize a marriage also has the power to cause pain, heartbreak-and even hate.


My name is Eunice, and this is the story of how fear stole what could have been the best moments between us.


Joshua


For a short while, my marriage was perfect. I was on top of the world, felt loved, experienced happiness...but then betrayal ruined it all. All it took was one moment, one wrong decision, and everything became corrupted. Nothing is the same anymore.


My name is Joshua, and this is how I almost destroyed the best thing that ever happened to me.

This Isn’t Romance—It’s a Manual on How to Emotion

Trigger Warning: Contains scenes of physical abuse, emotional abuse, infidelity, and a suicide attempt.

Let’s call this what it is: An Innocent Wife is not a romance. It’s the story of a woman, Eunice, being emotionally stomped on, physically abused, and repeatedly humiliated by a husband who treats her like less than dirt—and we’re supposed to root for their “love”?

Eunice isn’t just a doormat—she’s the entire welcome mat set, and Joshua wipes his feet on her daily. He’s not just emotionally unavailable; he’s a full-blown asshat who cheats on her nonstop, brings women into their marital bed, and has the audacity to act like she’s the problem. The man is a walking red flag, dipped in gasoline and set on fire.

Worse, this isn’t just emotional abuse. He’s physically violent, and somehow we’re supposed to accept that with enough suffering and blind loyalty, he’ll magically become a better person? Absolutely not. That’s not character development—that’s trauma glorification.
There is no real redemption arc. No groveling that matches the pain he inflicted. No payoff that justifies staying with someone who spent so much time breaking his wife down.

Eunice’s “innocence” quickly becomes maddening—it’s not strength, it’s erasure. No woman in her right mind would (or should) stay with a man who violates her physically, emotionally, and psychologically while actively disrespecting their vows.
This book doesn’t explore healing. It romanticizes misery and sells it as devotion. If you’re looking for a powerful, angsty story of second chances and growth, look elsewhere.

Eunice deserved therapy and freedom, not a second chance with the man who destroyed her. If you're sensitive to abuse or trauma—or just want a romance that doesn’t romanticize absolute cruelty—skip this one. There’s nothing innocent about it.
