Synopsis – Not My Husband
Today is the first day of my honeymoon, and I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. But as I roll over to face my new husband, Jay, my scream breaks the silence… The man in bed with me is not the man I married.
I beg him to get out, but he laughs and says I’ve always had an overactive imagination. He tells me that I’ve been under a lot of stress lately, so my mind must be playing tricks on me. I don’t believe him, but as he begins to describe me walking down the aisle, and other details from the wedding that only Jay could know, it has my head spinning. I’m certain this isn’t my husband, so how does he know so much?
I rush out of the beautiful suite, ignoring the warm ocean breeze and scent of tropical flowers in the air. When I reach hotel reception, I beg for help, but instead of calling the police, the busy staff exchange worried looks. They think I’ve lost it.
Then the strange man who is not my husband, walks up behind me and drapes his arm around my shoulders. ‘Don’t make a fuss,’ he whispers in my ear. My heart races. I’m in paradise, but I’m trapped in a nightmare.
Why won’t anybody believe me when I say this isn’t the man I married? Who is he, and what has he done with my husband?

My Review
Not My Husband by Cathryn Grant
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
ok
This is very quick read thriller. It is written in a way that makes you want to know the outcome.
However, I didn’t like this one as much as other books i’ve read by this author. The actions of the FMC made zero sense and the final outcome was underwhelming.
Even though I had some issues with the story I definitely found that I did not want to stop reading. I needed to see how it was all tied together. If you like popcorn thrillers I think you will enjoy this one.
