Just what will people do for money? Lie Cheat Decieve or perhaps all three.

Liv and her husband, Rich, decided that he would disappear, in time they would recieve finds and then they and their son Maddox xould live happy ever after and financially better off.

Trouble is Maddoc gets involved with the wrong crowd and things take a turn for the worst, and Rich has secrets of his own

This was an amazing read, It is truely a book not to be out down until the last page.

It is filled with drama, with twists that keep on coming and OMG that ending...

K.L. Slater does a fantastic job in writing a great psychological thriller, it had that feel that I wanted and enjoyed the way this was written. The characters had that feel and it was a tense story that I was looking for. I was on the edge of my seat from start to finish and glad I got to read this.

When I see a new book by this author immediately run for my kindle.

In my opinion this is this authors best book to date! I have never seen so many twists. Right till that last chapter the twists kept coming. I kept thinking right thats what’s happened I’ve worked it out but then suddenly something came along and completely shocked me.

The storyline itself is very good. I’ve not read any like it before. I was excited to see how it was going to end and what would happen.

There are a lot of characters in this book, at first I found it a little hard to remember who was who and how they fitted into the story but bare with it because it doesn’t take long to know them.

Absolutely terrifying and addicting you will not be able to put this down.

Betrayal demands revenge and for the best possible way to make your revenge stick, you need a watertight plan. The upside is a rose-tinted future. But when there is an upside there is irrevocably a downside too. And this is the thing you will have to endure for many years.

A good plan needs confidentiality and the less people know about it, the better. But if you want to succeed, sometimes you might had to include one important person before they found out for themselves...

Now the spark has lit the fire and it will burn slowly before the bomb bursts.

Oh my, I was wrong footed more than once and this results for me in finding this book an incredible good one. I loved the characters and the way the writing style and storytelling urged me to read on and on and on. 

As per usual I knew the author would deliver a splendid story. 5 stars

Thank you

The Married Man by K.L. Slater is a WILD ride! I enjoyed this twisty psychological thriller full of mistakes and deception as a plan made 11 years ago goes awry. I did not want to put this book down! You get to follow multiple key characters through the story at different points in time. Slater did a very nice job making the timeline transitions seemless and easy to follow. I felt the ending was a bit rushed paired with a bit of information overload. Regardless, I really enjoyed the book! I would recommend giving this one a read. Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for providing me with an advanced reader copy of The Married Man in exchange for an honest review.

This one is in the middle for KL Slater. I feel like the ending results were rather rushed-too many secrets that were just thrown in the readers face at once. Liv and her husband, Rich, have a plan for him to disappear for a number of years. Once that time is up, money will appear in Liv's account and her husband can come back to her and their son, Maddox. Maddox is now a teenager and getting involved with some dodgy people. Are they all connected? Meanwhile, Kait finds a piece of paper that her husband, Daniel dropped. She puts two and two together and thinks perhaps her husband is the missing husband of Liv. The different connections will shock you for sure!

A plan gone horribly wrong. Imagine making a plan in where your husband fakes a disappearance and you have a small son.

I just read the most shocking psychological thriller. The Married Man was awesome! It kept me going from the beginning to the end!

THE MARRIED MAN was a crazy rollercoaster of a book with surprises around every corner. The premise seemed simple at first but additional plotlines and characters were quickly introduced as the story developed. The author did a great job keeping everything distinct and easy to follow, even as more twists emerged and motivations uncovered. There were times when it almost felt too convoluted, but was still able to track everything to its final conclusion.

Thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review THE MARRIED MAN.

This book didn't grip me, the way I had hoped it would. Overall it wasn't bad, but I just didn't feel like I ever connected with the story. I'm sure other readers will enjoy it, but it just wasn't my cup of tea.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my copy of this book.

11 years ago Liv’s husband disappeared. She’s waited all this time for him to come back and now it’s the day to change her and her son Maddox’s lives. Kait is pregnant with her first child. Her husband is acting a bit dodgy and she is convinced he is having an affair. Is Danny Liv’s long lost husband?

Wow! Just wow!

Loved this so much. Fast paced, exciting, kept me guessing. Cannot praise it enough. We flip from past to present and through a number of characters as the truth is slowly revealed. Plenty of twists and red herrings. This was the perfect thriller and I’m very grateful to have been given a copy. Highly recommend.

This talented author has written a page turner. Red herrings kept me guessing. Secrets..family and friends…don’t try to guess the ending too soon. Surprises…surprises…this mystery was difficult to put down until finished. Thanks Netgalley.
