Hello, my name's Dorothy Koomson and I'll try to make this bit that's all about me as interesting as possible.

I absolutely loved this book but then it's no secret that I am a huge fan of this author and have been since reading "The Ice Cream Girls"

Cleo is convinced that Heath has returned and is watching her, wanting to hurt the people who mean the most to her.

Someone is trying to frame me for murder.
They’re hurting people in the ways I write about – and making sure I’m the prime suspect.
I think I know why. I had wanted to make up stories since I was a teenager. Probably younger. The only thing I liked better than reading stories was making them up. Writing was my escape, my comfort. It was also going to be my future. I knew it. Once I had finished this course, I was going to make sure I had all the tools to start and finish a book. I was going to get myself into a routine so I wrote no matter what else was going on in my life.”Dorothy Koomson is the queen of the killer hook line and master of the jaw-dropping twist ― S Magazine Although this is a clever, multi layered slow burner there are some jaw to the floor reveals with information bombs that explode your expectations and opinions of certain characters. There is plenty of tension and suspenseful moments and some well thought out plot twists as it builds to a very good ending. Dorothy Koomson is on formidable form . . . Clever, unnerving and utterly compulsive, the final few chapters left me breathless' Kia Abdullah Cleo and Heath. A very toxic relationship while Heath moves on to another woman while Cleo leaves him. Even that is proving difficult.

However, as time moves on and Heath is still there in Cleo’s life, she does fall for him, and at first they are deliriously happy. Heath is really nothing at all as we first imagine, and as his behaviour becomes increasingly out of control, and his jealousy and paranoia increases, his actions have such a profound effect on Cleo. I’d never heard of it, have you? And this (illness, mental state, obsession) played a huge part within this thriller that gripped my full attention. I absolutely love in books when an author takes a fact, such as this and uses it, expands it and builds a very intriguing interesting character such as this. But now she has decided to walk away from it all - including divorcing her husband, Wallace - before her past secrets catch up with her.I didn’t know what to expect from this book, I really had no clue what would happen and how it would end. The plot was unique and unpredictable, and the twist at the end which I completely did not see coming. I have to admit the start of the book is confusing, you’re thinking how it’s going to play out but also what’s going to happen. The subtle hints build up near the end resulting in a twist which I didn’t expect. But gradually as you read the book, it becomes clearer and less confusing. It’s not really until the end of the book where it makes sense.

This was a totally engrossing tale of past crimes and control, and tension and suspense are in plentiful supply. With very strong and expertly drawn characters I found myself invested in them all the way through, though there were some necessary distasteful ones. I have read several of Dorothy Koomson's other novels, including The Ice Cream Girls, The Brighton Mermaid and Tell Me Your Secret, and this novel, My Other Husband is just as good. Great unpredictable storytelling and well-worth five stars. She thinks she knows why, but Cleo can’t tell the police or prove her innocence. Because then she’d have to confess about her other husband . . . As Cleo drafts the final ever episodes of the series, people she knows start getting hurt. And it’s soon clear that someone is trying to frame her for murder. I really enjoyed this book, maybe it was the different perspectives and the forced breaks in between which added to the reading experience. The writing style, and unique descriptions felt relatable and cohesive.

Usually, being in a library space, with the books and the atmosphere they created, acted like a shield to protect me from the excesses of being around other people. They absorbed the nonsense and made me not mind as much if they went off on random tangents that were nothing to do with me.” Take a Look at Our Summary of November Highlights, Whether You're Looking for the Latest Releases or Gift Inspiration This is another winner from a very talented author and someone whose books I will always want to read.
