Alison Stockham: The Man She Married

Today I’m joining the blog tour for The Man She Married. My review is written with thanks to Rachel Gilbey at Rachel’s Random Resources for inviting me on the tour and to the publisher for my copy of the book.

Blurb:

How can you fight for a life you can’t remember?

One moment I was just living my life, finding my way in the world. The next I woke up in a hospital bed with years of my life missing.

The man by my side – Rob, my husband – looks familiar, but I can’t remember marrying him. I can’t remember our life together. Most haunting of all: I can’t remember anything about the last five years.

The more I try to piece my life back together, the more I question everything – even myself. Who is Rob, really? And can I trust him? More importantly, can I trust myself?

A compulsive and obsessive read that will have you saying ‘just one more chapter!’ Perfect for fans of Before I Go To Sleep and Alice Feeney.

Review:

The first chapter of The Man She  Married is really fast paced and high stakes and this sets the tone for the whole novel. I was fully engaged from the outset and I didn’t want to let go..

The premise of The Man She Married is really interesting, and that is what made me sign up for the tour. When we first meet Beth, she doesn’t remember anything – she thinks she is on the opposite side of the world – and I really wanted to go on this journey of discovery with her. I did guess quite early on where the story was going, but this was because the character of Rob, Beth’s husband, is built so well. I felt the same feelings that Beth did when he was part of a scene and I love that the author’s writing caused me to react so viscerally.

I loved the ending of The Man She Married. It is full of tension and there were a few surprises as the novel reached its conclusion.

The Man She Married ís available from Amazon
