The Wife Between Us by Greer Hendricks, Sarah Pekkanen
2.0
KNOPE. This was soo not for me.
I read via audiobook and think that made the jumping/mixed timelines wayy more confusing. The Wife Between Us is your basic 'wife knows nothing about her clearly horrible toxic husband' plot. When Vanessas ex-husband plans to marry his new pretty young girlfriend, she stalks her replacement and tries to warn her of the evil man she is going to marry.
SPOILERS:
The big reveal is the while the gross abusive husband thought he was gaslighting his wife, she was actually letting him becuase she was trying to leave him. She was too scared to speak up and get help so she had to make him leave her.
