Not His Wife: A totally gripping psychological thriller with a gasp-out-loud twist -- L. G. Davis, Paperback

I wake up in a dark bedroom, gazing into a stranger's amber eyes. He runs a hand down my cheek and whispers something that makes my heart stop: "Welcome home darling. I'm your husband."

My whole life until this moment is gone. I have amnesia after a terrible accident, and now I just have to trust what my husband, Evan, says. But everything feels wrong, from the name he gives me, 'Cora, ' to the home he says I loved.

As I explore our sprawling old farmhouse, I find another woman's belongings, and Evan says they belong to the woman who lived here before us. I begin to get to know her, piecing together her life although I can't remember mine. Why would she leave precious items behind, like her photos and her locket?

Then I hear something in the basement that sends a shiver down my spine. Evan's elderly aunt, who lives with us, hears it too. She hisses to me, her eyes darting fearfully, 'Get out. You're not his wife.'

But I'm not going anywhere. Because the answers to who I am, and what happened to the woman who lived here first, are in this house.

I think Evan is lying and my life is in danger. I'm going to get the key to that basement to find out the truth.

But when my memories come flooding back, I'll realize Evan isn't the only one with secrets he'll kill to protect...

This utterly addictive thriller is packed with shocking twists you'll never see coming. Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, Teresa Driscoll and Freida McFadden.
