Thanks to the publishers and netgalley for giving me the opportunity to listen to this audiobook.

The book starts with two people bonded with their siblings disappearance. Neither of them ready to give up on finding thier siblings even though a lot of time has passed . Alex and Lauren have a lot of love and trust on each other.

After twelve years a detective calls with an evidence which shakes Lauren to her core. The author has done a wonderful job with characters and their personality . I suspected an all the characters of the murder . I never guessed the truth. To be honest it was a jaw dropping experience when I listened to the truth.

I am impressed with the author and would like the opportunity to read other books from Georgina cross.

I appear to be in the minority here, but I wasn't as bowled over by this as I would have liked to be (or thought I would be). The premise was so promising, but it felt a bit to me as if the author was merely trying to keep up with other books of a similar theme.

It was mediocre and to be honest a bit odd. First of all, knowing what these people knew, I find their behaviour extremely peculiar. Lauren was so concerned about Ellie, and yet it never occurred to her (in light of later events) that her sister wasn't coming back. Nah, I don't buy it.

Not awful but not great. 2 and a half stars, rounded down... It would have been rounded up but the ending just tipped the scale the other way.

"In 'My Perfect Husband,' buckle up for a thrilling ride through twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. With two unreliable narrators, the story unfolds leaving you guessing until the very end. The narrator skillfully navigates through the plot, enhancing the suspense and keeping listeners hooked from start to finish. A must-listen for fans of fast-paced thrillers!"

Thank you NetGalley and publisher for ARC.

This was a very fast paced, quick read. Perfect to binge. I could not put it down. The ending was also twisty!!!! Can’t complain! Highly recommend this book!!

First off, thank you Net Galley for this free audiobook.

I enjoyed the narrator and how she led us through the story. This book is a fast faxed, easy read to get through. I was hooked by the premise and the book did not fail to bring what was promised.

This was a fun read that kept me hooked.

So this book was interesting being was told from 2 perspectives and both being unreliable narrators. I was really completely invested and felt that there wasn’t much point in the story by the end.

Wow! A brilliant and twisty thriller that had me floored!

Lauren and Alex were drawn together by their shared trauma of having a missing sibling. Neither of them will ever give up on finding their loved ones and the support they show to each other demonstrates the depth of their love.

When Lauren gets the call she has been waiting for for twelve years, some shocking evidence is discovered which makes Lauren question everything and everyone, including Alex. The characters and the back stories are well written and the present day events are super tense. I suspected everyone at some point and could never have guessed the truth. It was a huge jaw dropping moment!

Well played, Georgina Cross, I can't wait for more from this talented author. As always, Stephanie Cannon's narration was spot on.

5 ⭐️ Thanks to Netgalley, Georgina Cross and Bookouture, for an ARC in return for an honest review.

My Perfect Husband
Georgina Cross
Alex and I met at a support group for the families of missing people. Alex was looking for his brother Clive and I was searching for her missing sister Ellie. Ellie had been missing for twelve years. I looked deep into his eyes and knew he was the man for me. Alex was perfect, he helped me search for my sister, he held me when I cried, he was perfect. Ellie’s body was found in an old house, a photograph was found in her pocket. My perfect husband was in the photograph along with my sister and his brother. My life shattered. Alex had lied to me; he said they had never met, but there he was with his arm around her shoulders. I recognized the café in the picture. The picture was made the day she died. It was obvious that Alex had lied to her, but why.
This is an interesting thriller. About halfway through the book we discover the main character, Lauren, has a secret. This tale is told from Lauren’s point of view. There are occasional flashbacks. The flashbacks give the reader deeper knowledge of Lauren and her relationship with her sister Ellie. The ending surprised me. We are left with a cliff hanger. I’m not a great fan of cliff hangers.

This is a great thriller. Cat and mouse style. This is the kind of book that makes you wonder what your significant other has kept secret from you for the length of your relationship. Because everyone has secrets right? Does having secrets make you guilty of a crime or?

I received a copy of this audiobook as an ARC from Netgalley and am very grateful that I did. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Some audiobooks can feel like they drag. This was quite the opposite. Considering its an 8 hour+ read, the time seemed to fly by. Unlike some books where I can lose track of who is who it is a simple enough story to follow - wife's sister disappeared 12 years ago. She meets her husband at grief counselling. He says his brother is missing too. They are a perfectly happy couple, supporting each other. Then the body of the sister is found and in her pocket is a picture of her with the husband and his brother - when the husband has said he's never met the sister before! and so to New Orleans to try and discover the truth about the sister's death. Can't say much more without revealing spoilers - just to say that there was just the right amount of suspense and tension for me, a great psychological thriller with an unexpected (for me at least) twist at the end.

This is popcorn reading at its finest!

Lauren’s sister, Ellie, has been missing for over 10 years and the police have no leads - until Lauren finally gets the call she’s been dreading. The police found Ellie’s body. When the police ask Lauren to look at some photos found with Ellie, she recognizes her husband. That’s really all you need to know to start this twisty thriller!

Quick Read

I really loved this quick thriller! The author’s writing style kept me on my toes the entire time. The narration was perfect, it added to the intensity of the story. I could not put this down until I finished it- which shows exactly how well Georgina Cross wrote this!

I am giving it 4 stars because I wish the ending had been a bit different; I can’t say much more without spoiling it.

This was a fast read, the writing flows easily most of the time. I was interested the whole time I was reading. But I did find Lauren’s thoughts repetitive. I enjoy a good fast paced thriller, but for me the execution of the twists are what determines a thriller. For most of the book I thought I knew what the twist would be. I was wrong, but the actual twist left me disappointed. I was left with more questions than answers. Over all it was just an okay book for me.

I really enjoyed reading The Perfect Couple I just felt it lacked pace. While I enjoyed the layers and layers the book took me through I was constantly eager to get to the end and connect the dots.

Thank you Netgalley and Bookouture Audio for the ALC.

Thank you to NetGalley, the audio house and the author for the opportunity to listen to a complimentary copy of this book in return for a review, based upon my honest opinion.

This was the first book I’ve read by this author, It was a pretty quick listen and somewhat enjoyable. I enjoyed the storyline at first, the plot line sounded really good, but the unreliability of the characters did take away from some of the story for me.

12 years after her sister Ellie went missing, Lauren gets the phone call that she has been dreading. Her remains have been found. she has spent the last 12 years in a panic but she had her husband that took care of her and was there for her cause he also went though his brother missing and no new leads. when she finally gets the call everything she knows is quested.

Its a fast read its listed as a thriller but its not really cause as the story comes out there's no real mystery its all just laid out. this isn't for everyone and I had problems with it.

Thank you NetGalley for this Audio Arc in exchange for my honest thoughts.

Finished this audiobook ARC from #netgalley this week! This is my first 5 star read of the year!

When Lauren discovers a secret her husband has been keeping from her, she begins questioning how well she knows him and if he is involved in her sister’s disappearance 12 years ago…

In just the first few chapters, @georginacrossauthor pulls you right in to solving the mystery of how Lauren’s sister went missing in New Orleans and if her husband Alex was involved long before he met Lauren. I loved the unraveling of this story. It’s suspenseful and builds gradually with enough breadcrumbs left for the reader to slowly start figuring it out. Stephanie Cannon is a great narrator with a soothing easy to listen to voice that keeps you engaged and in suspense! This is a twisty story that will have you hooked! A perfect summer mystery!

Thank you NetGalley, Georgina Cross, and Bookouture Audio for this ARC audiobook! Thriller lovers, go find it now!

My Perfect Husband by by Georgina Cross and narrated by Stephanie Cannon was a brilliant and I found it hard to stop my audiobook, once I started to listen to it. So, my phone/audiobook went shopping etc with me!!! lol.

I highly recommend this audiobook/book. Great read from start to finish.

Big thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture, Bookouture audio for my audiobook and Book to read etc.

This was my first read by Georgina Cross.

First off I have to say I live in Louisiana and the description of walking through New Orleans was SPOT ON. I felt like I was just walking through. I could hear it. I could see it. I could smell it. Phenomenal!

I’m some parts of this book it was a bit slow but in other parts it was more fast paced.

The twist I did not see coming! I thought maybe I had it figured out but I was way off! Very well written. Well Done!

"My Perfect Husband" is a mystery thriller by Georgina Cross. It is a very quick read or listen. I didn't want to stop listening to this one. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Stephanie Cannon. She did a great job with the voices!

Lauren's sister, Ellie, has been missing for years. Her husband, Alex, has been missing his brother, Clive, for many years also. Lauren keeps her phone on with the hopes of finding out where her sister is. She finally gets the call. Any more info would spoil the book.
