Fiction. Literature. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:

The bestselling author of The Last Mrs. Parrish returns with a psychological thriller, filled with chilling serpentine twists, about a woman fighting to hold onto the only family she's ever lovedâ??and how far she'll go to preserve it.

Named one of the most anticipated thrillers of the year by Goodreads, Bustle, SheReads, and Library Journal

Breezing into the tony seaside paradise of Westport, Connecticut, gorgeous thirtysomething Piper Reynard sets down roots, opening a rehab and wellness space and joining a local yacht club. When she meets Leo Drakos, a handsome, successful lawyer, the wedding ring on his finger is the only thing she doesn't like about him. Yet as Piper well knows, no marriage is permanent.

Meanwhile, Joanna has been waiting patiently for Leo, the charismatic man she fell in love with all those years ago, to re-emerge from the severe depression that has engulfed him. Though she's thankful when Leo returns to his charming, energetic self, paying attention again to Evie and Stelli, the children they both love beyond measure, Joanna is shocked to discover that it's not her loving support that's sparked his renewed happinessâ??it's something else.

Piper. Leo has fallen head over heels for the flaky, New Age-y newcomer, and unrepentant and resolute, he's more than willing to leave Joanna behind, along with everything they've built. Of course, he assures her, she can still see the children.

Joanna is devastatedâ??and determined to find something, anything, to use against this woman who has stolen her life and her true love. As she digs deeper into Piper's past, Joanna begins to unearth disturbing secrets . . . but when she confides to her therapist that she fears for the lives of her ex-husband and children, her concerns are dismissed as paranoia.

I didn't guess it but also didn't love it. Solid for the genre ( )

WOW! This book definitely had one of the biggest twist that I did not see coming! Told from 2 POVS, Piper and Joanna, they are both in love with Leo. Initially, I couldn’t stand the book because the information provided was completely false! I was annoyed and angry at this book, but y’all when I say the ending was everything. I mean it was everything. All the falseness was then realized that it should have given me a clue about the twist! Yea, this book got me good!

Thanks for the gifted copy to Liv Constantine and Suzyapprovedbooktours!! ( )

The Wife Stalker by Liv Constantine is a 2020 HarperCollins publication.

A Stylish Twister with Unreliable Narrators

This is the story of two women- Piper and Joanne, who are both obsessed with Leo. After suffering with severe depression, Leo begins to show signs of improvement after meeting Piper. He quickly begins an affair with her, leaving Joanne, the woman who had been with him for years, after she saw him through the darkest days of his depression.

After Leo marries Piper, he and his two children embark on a new life together. But Piper has a dubious past, and Joanne is convinced she is a modern day ‘Black Widow’…. Which means Leo and the children could be in grave danger…

Which woman is telling the truth and what secrets are they hiding?

I enjoyed this book more than I expected to. The usual clichéd PT tropes are still present, but the predictability is not as obvious. In fact, this one surprised me with a few clever twists and turns. The chapters alternate between Piper’s and Joanne’s perspectives, and both are unreliable narrators who keep the reader guessing until the end.

While this one is pretty slick, and certainly above average for this category, the book isn’t without its faults. It is implausible at times, convenient on occasion, and due to this setup, it was impossible to get a real feeling of depth from the characters. But this did not hamper my enjoyment of the book. I was invested in the story and thought the ending left just a tiny bit of doubt in the reader’s mind, which I liked.

It’s not perfect, and you’ll have to overlook a few things, but overall, this was a fun, satisfying book and it did manage to keep me on my toes!

3.5 rounded up ( )

4 Stars because I couldn’t stop reading it. But soooooo frustrating!!! I kind of guessed some of where this book was headed, but it still made me feel like ( )

I enjoyed this treat of a book. The twist both delighted me and annoyed me. However, I was left not knowing how to feel about one of the characters, especially in light of the book's last line. Liv Constantine delivers yet again, although this doesn't, in my opinion, hold a candle to the Last Mrs. Parrish. ( )
