About this listen
An Audible Best Mystery and Thriller Audiobook of 2023
In this chilling story from the bestselling author of The Secret Mother, it’s the wedding day of Alice’s dreams. Until it becomes a nightmare…
Alice and Seth are a perfect love story: the handsome doctor and his beautiful fiancée. They’re wealthy, well liked and made for each other—the envy of all their friends. Alice can’t wait for the day of their dream wedding. But when she arrives at the altar, she doesn’t recognise the man waiting to marry her.
When this stranger insists he’s Seth, her husband-to-be, the entire congregation seems to agree. Even her parents try to persuade Alice to go through with the wedding.
As panic sets in, Alice’s world comes apart. Where is the real Seth, and why have all traces of him disappeared from her life? Fearing she’s losing her mind, she sets out to uncover the truth and escape the nightmare she’s living in. But with everyone around her convinced by the fake Seth, how can she ever hope to find the man she loves?

The white-washed Italian villa is perfect. I thought it might feel odd, living in a stranger’s house for the summer, but as my husband and children swim in the infinity pool, I start to relax. And then, in the back of a wardrobe, I find something that shatters everything.... Sparkling green eyes, square jaw, lopsided smile. A young man with his arm around a beautiful woman. The picture is old and faded, but I’d recognize him anywhere. The man is my husband.

Underwhelming
So , I’m someone who usually can love any book . There’s been times where I seen harsh reviews and still enjoyed the book … but this book really just wasn’t it for me !
I’m greatly into any an all psychological thrillers / thriller crimes . Things of that sort .
So when reading the description of the book , I thought this is RIGHT up my ally ! Even though I seen not the best reviews I decided I’ll allow myself to make that decision because I really was intrigued with the little description of the story . Well , at first , it did really pull me in ! And I was intrested ! But then it got slow and just really unbelievable ! Like how could this even happen , like at all ! An I think that’s the only thing that kept me reading was trying to figure out how the author was gonna be able to spin their way out of it …
But even before the climax , or twist , I was already disengaged with the story , and was just continuing because I’m too nosey not to know the end lol ! The story fell flat & short ! :( !
( SMALL SPOLIER BELOW !!!!!!!!!!!! just explaining when the “ twist “ comes into the story , not what the actual twist is )
The twist only comes alllllllll the way at the end , almost at the epilogue… and even when it did come , it wasn’t this grand finale… the story just fell short .
