The Wrong Wife

One Husband. Two wives. One identity.

Melissa Hunter’s picture-perfect life is built on lies—and she’s done pretending. Trapped in a toxic marriage to Brad, a charming sociopath with deadly connections, Melissa hatches the ultimate escape: vanish without a trace and leave someone else to wear her skin.

Enter Bettany Carter: broke, beautiful, and desperate enough to play along. Hired to impersonate Melissa for a day, Bettany is supposed to disappear quietly. Instead, she wakes up in hospital with no memory, severe burns, and a man claiming to be her adoring husband. But something is off and why does her best friend’s smile feel like a threat?

As the woman once known as Melissa pulls the strings from the shadows, a deadly game unfolds. But playing dead only works if you stay buried. And Melissa’s not done yet…

A dark, twist-filled psychological thriller with a killer hook and a haunting final twist, The Wrong Wife is perfect for readers who love Freida McFadden and Lisa Jewell

Did not like the AI narrator

I couldn’t finish the book. The storyline was captivating but the AI voice ruined it.

The story was great but the virtual voice is awful

I really enjoyed the story but the “Virtual voice” audio is terrible! Voice inflections are off and the emotions of voice—tone, strength, etc do not match the story and situations.

Not the AI‘s fault

Still an excellent read, enough to overlook the sometimes AI’s cringe worthy errors. Unfortunately, AIs are only as good as those entering the data. However, this particular AI is definitely not the worst that I’ve heard.

Using AI for narration….Fail!

Story was fine, but the narration was terrible. It was like listening to my computer talking to me and everything is wrong about this.

Not a fan of virtual reading

Story wasn’t bad but anticlimactic. My first listen with virtual reading and I didn’t care for it at all. No voice inflection, pauses in the wrong place and emphasis on wrong syllables…not a fan!
