AMAZING. I cannot wait to read more of Gendricks and Pekkanen's novels. You really could relate with the main characters and get inside their heads. I was so impressed with their writing styles and the way the characters jumped out of the pages at you. And an amazing ending as well... simply outstanding, I recommend this novel to anyone. It will have you wanting to finish it in a day!

The Wife Between Us is a Psychological Suspense Thriller that is a real page turner. I was a little confused in the first third of the book, but kept reading and everything started to come together. At first I thought the wife was crazy and the husband was controlling. The story has several twists that kept you turning the pages to try to figure out the ending. I never saw the ending coming. A great read. Thank you Netgalley and publisher for a copy of this book and this is my honest review.

This book was SO well written! I thought I knew what was going to happen from the very beginning and boy was I wrong! I can't believe I didn't guess this one. There were quite a few different twists throughout the book which was just amazing. I was blindsided by how wrong I was.

And I feel like this one was so much better than some of the other psychological thrillers out there that just get way too twisty to the point where I don't even understand what happened. This book is not like those. I definitely recommend this book to those who enjoy mystery/psychological thrillers!

Thank you for the copy!

I can't even describe how misleading this whole story plot was. Like holy cow!

But I loved it too. It was such an unexpected read. And I loved every page of it.

It kept me so entranced with it through the whole thing. And I found myself not wanting to put the book down so I could see what was going to happen.

It had everything a good story could offer.And will leave you waiting and wanting more.

A five star read for sure

“The Wife Between Us” by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen

The reader is drawn into this novel from the first sentence and is kept captivated throughout. Twists and turns and the question of whose story is truly being told will keep you turning page after page. Parts will surprise you, even when you think you have it all figured out. Then a new piece of information is put forth and what you believed all along appears not be was was “seen.”

An intriguing, mysterious, realistic, twisting and turning novel that will keep you on your toes. A non-stop page turner that will keep you reading late into the night. A novel anyone who likes psychological thrillers will want to read right away. But it is not just for them...it is a read for every adult, men and women. Pick it up and be consumed.

Rating: 4.8
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


** I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this novel. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

The Wife Between Us is an absolutely addicting page turner! As the book description says, you will assume so much and with each page there is a new twist and turn and your assumptions are blown away. I admit there was a part of the book that left me very confused, but just keep going and you are blown away! The secrets, lies, deceptions, betrayals, and the pure genius of Nellie ......you just can't read fast enough! Just when you think it's all settled and you know all the secrets.....another revelation at the end blows you away again! My first read read by this duo and I will definitely be reading many more!

I received an advanced copy of this book through Netgalley. This book had me from the very beginning. I love that it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I would highly recommend this book to my fellow readers. Thank you for the chance to review this book!!!!

I admit when I started reading this I got lost a few times. The authors play with time/place a lot and I found myself pausing to get reoriented a few times. That being said, The Wife Between Us is a clever, well-written story of a woman with both a troubled past and difficult present. The reader will think they have figured out the ending - and be wrong (several times). I was especially pleased with the ending. The Wife Between Us is an entertaining, suspenseful story that I highly recommend.

My Highly Caffeinated Thought: A completely addictive roller coaster ride packed with tension, twists, turns, and an ending you will never see coming. A must read!

It takes a lot for a book to take me by surprise, but THE WIFE BETWEEN US has it all. This wonderfully deceptive and smart narrative takes the reader on a ride that you will not want to end. I started this book with the thought that I would take the week and leisurely read it. Ha! Joke was on me because I devoured it within a day.

This book is an example of what a quality domestic psychological thriller can be. The story is fresh and unique enough for it stands out from all the rest. As you start reading, you think you are getting one story, but then without any warning, you are hit with a twist which changes everything. The authors brilliantly build the suspense by adding layers to the story through the characters as well as their interactions. The reveals are mind-blowing and will have your jaw dropping from shock. I loved that I never knew what was going to happen next.

For readers who loved GONE GIRL or BEHIND CLOSED DOORS, this is a book you will need to add to your reading list. I absolutely loved this book.

Enough twists to keep me interested the whole time. A page turner worth reading. The ending felt like a slight whimper but I liked how throughout the book, especially part 2, changed everything I thought I knew.

This was my first book by Greer Hendricks and will honestly say I was not so sure about this book at the beginning. I don't know if it was her style of writing or the jumping back and forth so much but I felt like I was getting a little bit lost. I kept on going since it was so raved about and I will honestly say that by the time I was a quarter of the way through it started to stick and I wanted to know what was really going on. I will say that this had a quite a few interesting twists happening that kept me going. The ending was something I never saw coming which I have to applaud the authors for pulling off the great surprise. It's definitely worth the read.

This is a hard one to write y'all. I was highly anticipating this book that is out January 9th. *The writing was well done. *The premise was right up my alley. *It kept me reading...all day without stopping.
With all that being said. It did not deliver.
I can't tell you too much (yep, it's one of those books). It is the story of a woman, who is obsessed with her replacement. It's about the replacements inside look at her relationship with her future husband.
I was hooked. I kept reading...it was not a book I wanted to quit. For that alone I am giving it 🌟🌟🌟💫 stars. Why is this not a five star read for me (because it was for some of my most respected #bookstagrammers) ?
I didn't love the ending. It was anticlimactic for me. I will say this. I think if you enjoy thrillers, fast paced reads that turn you upside down...you should read it.

Very interesting and unusual story. Keeps your attention and keeps you wondering. Recommended. Very unusual subject.

I enjoyed this book very much! The beginning was a little confusing once everything was tied together but once it clicked what was going on, it was a great read. I enjoyed all of the characters and was so surprised by all the twists and turns the story took...and there were loads! The book had a fast pace and was one I did not want to put down.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to read an advanced reader copy in exchange for my honest review.

I enjoyed this until the epilogue. At the start of each part I started to piece together what I thought was really going on. I second guessed myself a few times on who was actually who. Then the last three chapters happened and it became another suburbia melodrama. I really wish they had expanded on Maureen at the end. It was going great where they were taking her and then it just stopped. Whaaaaaat? That's it? OH C'MON! Totally disappointed and took the 5th star from it because of that. The last few pages were meh.

A thoroughly enjoyable read! I really like the back-and-forth chase aspects of the book. And the reveal at the end of Book One was a complete surprise to me! Read this one in two days -- haven't done that in a very long time!

Has already been recommended to a friend. :)

I enjoyed this book immensely it kept me guessing until the very last page. Every time I thought I had it some little thing would pop up and I really had no idea. It was nice reading a book I didn’t have figured out in the 2nd chapter

It's an entertaining book with a flawless prose. A thriller that will keep people on the edge of their seats.

The cover intrigued me but the plot was so enthralling I kept telling myself one more chapter, just one more chapter...until we’ll past 3 am. Just when I thought I had it figured out - another twist and turn that had me scrambling to catch up! Connections here...roadblock...a different connection! Many times I felt like I was in the room with Nellie, Vanessa, and Emma, wanting to warn them about the conflicted Richard. Questions continue to linger in my mind about his family life - especially his sister!
Many thanks to NetGalley for allowing me to read this book. If you love a great read that keeps you pondering about the characters after you have finished it you definitely want to read this book!

This psychological thriller will have you zipping through the pages and questioning your assumptions as you try to figure out motives and motivations in this terrific read. What assumptions can we make about love, about marriage, about family, about the past, about the future? How do you protect those you love and protect those in harm’s way?

When you sit down to read The Wife Between Us, have your snack and beverage close at hand already because you will not want to disturb the flow of the story as the tale of wife, ex-wife, fiancée and husband tangle together in a tale filled with twists, turns, obsession and redemption. Will Vanessa, Nellie, Richard and those in their orbit survive or be destroyed?

This writing team is one to watch for!
