Publisher's summary

I blink open my eyes, taking in bright lights and a white room. A man smiles warmly at me from the end of my bed. "Honey, I’ve been so worried," he says gently. "Do you remember me? I’m your husband." My blood runs cold. I don’t know where I am, or who I am. All I know is I’ve never seen this man before....

As he packs my things, the nurses tell me Freddie hasn’t left my bedside since the accident I was in days ago. They tell me I’m lucky. We seem like the perfect couple, and together we’ll figure out what happened. So I go home to a beautiful house with a fancy marble kitchen and manicured garden that is supposedly ours. But deep down I know something isn’t right. Even though my memories are gone, this doesn’t feel like my life.

Slowly, flashes of memory come back. First the accident—the pouring rain, a swerving car, a sudden scream. Somebody whispering "I’ll love you forever." But most heartbreaking of all are the haunting memories of a blue-eyed little girl. Is she my little girl? Was she in the accident too? Or is she in terrible danger?

Freddie is determined to keep me safe and hide me from the world. But I can’t shake the feeling that we aren’t the loving couple he wants us to be, and that beyond this house a precious child needs me now more than ever. So why am I here? What does Freddie want? And how far will I have to go to discover the truth?

An utterly gripping psychological thriller filled with dark secrets and deadly obsessions. Perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Family Upstairs, and The Serial Killer’s Wife.

Such A Loving Couple by Hayley Smith starts really strong. I like how everything unfolds to slowly show us what is going on. I will say, I thought something more was going on than what actually happened, but tried to keep my disappointment at bay. It also would have been nice to hear from Freddie to gain another perspective and see more things that we were only told about.

I deducted 2 stars because I have a few unanswered questions that made some things seem illogical and also lost interest in what was happening more than once because it dragged on.

Candida Gubbins is a good narrator, but the two voices for Becca and Magdalena (sp?) are too similar in tone, so I had to start a chapter over to remember who we were hearing from if I needed to take a break from the book. It could have benefitted from having multiple narrators.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
