The Wife Before Me

The Wife Before Me by Laura Elliot

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Do you believe in ghosts? You don’t believe in something you can’t see, but can you believe in something you can feel?

At her mother’s funeral, Elena meets charming Nicolas. Months later, as their romance progresses, they make vows to each other, Elena moves into Nichola’s house and they start a family. Their union is picture perfect. However, there is a dark cloud that is hanging above Elena and Nicolas relationship, that that cloud’s name is Amelia Madison.

Two years prior, Amelia’s car was found on a bottom of the sea, her body was never recovered. The bedroom that Amelia and Nicholas have shared remains locked. Amelia’s interior design touch, photographs and paintings are occupying Nicholas home. Elena finds herself in Amelia’s cocoon. Shortly after she begins to dress, look, and walk like Nicholas’ previous wife. And there is one more thing that both women share – a fear for their lives.

If you read and liked “The Gone Girl” and “The Wife Between Us” I am sure you will enjoy this gem as well. I loved the twisted plot, I was turning pages so fast, could not get enough of the story. This book with take you thru many stages of sadness, anger, and fear and leave you with a very intriguing ending. Thank you Bookouture, Netgalley and Laura Elliot for the advanced copy of this book.
