Publisher's Summary

In Cathy Lamb's gripping and thought-provoking novel, a woman whose memory is shattered must piece together her husband's secrets - and reevaluate her life, love, and relationships. 

When Natalie Shelton thinks back to how things were before the car accident, she remembers a great marriage. She and her husband, Zack, seem as strong and dependable together as the houses he builds. They live in Portland, Oregon, and Natalie is co-owner of a successful accounting firm. They're happy, she's almost sure of it. 

Yet as Natalie lies trapped in a coma, unable to communicate though aware of everything around her, she realizes that her husband is hiding something. Zack has always been reticent about his past, which she attributed to an unhappy childhood. Now the strange calls he's receiving, the apologies when he thinks she can't hear him, and her fragmented memories from the morning of the accident suggest a deeper secret. 

When she finally awakens, Natalie is determined to find out the truth. Sorting through clues as her brain heals, she realizes she has a rare opportunity - to reexamine the life she's made and the man she's made it with. But as answers come to light, she faces surprising, heartrending decisions, as well as a danger that could upend her world once again, as Zack's past finally catches up with them.

Quirkly, but delightful!

The story starts out with a heated argument between Natalie and her husband Zack. But as the story continues, we meet a number of interesting characters who are a happy part of their lives. The stories within the story are attention grabbing. I can easily recommend this book for people who are tried of the usual chick lit.

The man she married

Had a great time listening to this book. Funny characters, great humor and excitement as well. Really enjoyed the whole book.

Loved it

Great likable characters! Cathy Lamb takes a serious car accident mixed in some humor (at least for me) then BOOM a thriller!! WELL DONE! I listened to the audio, which is good!

Overwritten

Too corny. I stuck with it because if the Oregon setting. I was hoping the ending would be my surprise payoff. I was disappointed.

Redundant and boring:

I listened to this because I had nothing better to do and I am out of credits this month.

The Man She Married

What a wonderful book! It has all the right “feels” and leaves your heart happy.

not as good as I'd hoped

The narration seemed a little stilted. It was good when Natalie was having trouble speaking, you could feel her struggle. But often Zach sounded the same way. I felt the blame game part was overdone.

Worthy of Reading ?

No!
Poor in every aspect -
Poor storyline
Poorest of all nearly an irritating narration
Why was this rated well by Audible ?

Entertaining
