The Marriage Secret

 

The Marriage Secret by Carey Baldwin - psychological thriller

Holly has just given birth- her husband is an obstetrics consultant and during labour she suspects him of causing her pain. She left her shoes out and he said “ she would pay for it”. He is beginning to control her every move- even demanding that she send him pictures when she is out to prove where she is. His mother says to Holly that he has always lied and thinks he can get away with it. As Holly says chains are not always made of links, and abuse takes many different forms. He is one manipulating, perfidious husband. Zach knows a secret from Holly’s past, something she told him on their wedding day and is now regretting doing so. If she holds his secret, will he uphold hers?

OMG! I loved this! It's  a fast paced tale of cleverly woven deception and one where you are not sure whom to trust. Where each chapter partly answers one thing and then adds another and then the final twist- I won’t give anything away other than to say trust no-one. A brilliantly plotted out read and characters you think you can take to- or perhaps not! A highly recommended read to keep you on the edge of your seat.

The Marriage Secret: An utterly unputdownable psychological thriller with a jaw-dropping twist 

He married me despite my darkest secret. But am I safe now that I know his?
From the outside, my marriage to Zach was perfect: dream home, a perfect baby girl and passionate, all-consuming love. When we met, I confessed my darkest secret to him and he never judged me for it. Instead, he vowed to always protect me whatever the cost. 
But as I cradle my gorgeous baby, I have to accept that the husband who used to be my everything, has changed. At first it was little things: expecting me to keep to a strict schedule, picking out my clothes for me. Now, he controls every aspect of my life: from how much money I have, to when I leave the house and who I can see.

One fateful night, a young woman is found murdered and Zach is a potential suspect. Turning towards me, a look of warmth returning to his eyes, he swears he’s innocent, and I realize there is only one solution. If I agree to be his alibi, he will keep my secret and our daughter can grow up in a loving home. In that moment, I do what any faithful wife would do: I stand by him.
But I know deep down, only one of us will make it out of this marriage alive.
A completely unputdownable and twist-filled psychological thriller from USA Today bestselling author Carey Baldwin. Fans of The Wife Between Us, The Marriage and Gone Girl will be totally addicted to The Marriage Secret.
