Hello!
With just over two weeks till publication day, reviews for The Husband Before You are coming in thick and fast.
It's always a nervy time, waiting to hear what people think about the book you've laboured over for months. Well, I am very happy to report that the general consensus is that The Husband Before You is a twisty, thrilling, fast-paced read.
And...relax!
Here are just a few of the lovely things book bloggers and reviewers have had to say:
‘Just wow. I couldn’t put it down. And THE TWIST. Are you kidding me?! I never saw that ending coming, and I loved every second of it. An incredible read—if you love thrillers that keep you guessing, drop everything and read this one now!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘I’d highly recommend this book if you like a tightly plotted, clever story with razor-sharp dialogue, characters that pop off the page and twists so chilling you’ll be reaching for a blanket to wrap yourself in, then this book is for you!!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘The Husband Before You captures you from the first to last page and never lets you go. I promise you will struggle to put this one down.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘The Husband Before You is a perfect read for anyone who loves a fast-paced, suspenseful novel with strong character development and high stakes. Highly recommended for fans of psychological thrillers and page-turners.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
‘Comes at you with both barrels and knocks you out of your shoes! Definitely recommend!’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Husband Before You is out in ebook, paperback and audiobook on 1 April. Not too long to wait!
Meanwhile, last Thursday was a very special day for The Baby, my sixth psych thriller and my first with my fabulous publisher, Bookouture.
It was print publication day, which means that The Baby is now available from all good bookshops (is there such thing as a bad bookshop?! I don't think so!) and not just Amazon.
If your favourite bookshop doesn't have a copy in stock, just ask and they'll be able to order it in for you.
The Baby is one of the books I'm most proud of and I hope that by having its own print run it'll reach the hands of a whole new group of readers.
If you spot a copy out in the wild, please take a pic and send it to me!
If you're looking for something to read while you wait for the release of The Husband Before You, I have just the thing.
My friend and fellow Amanda, AJ Campbell, has a new book out, and I was lucky enough to get a sneak preview.
In The Mistake, heroine Mia Hamilton is trying to do the best by her family by raising money to send her sick niece to the US for life-saving treatment.
When Mia's flatmate offers her an easy way to earn some cash, she finds herself saying yes.
But that one decision lands her in a whole heap of trouble when she witnesses a murder.
Mia hits dead end after dead end in her race to find out who is behind the killing before the culprit can catch up with her
I loved how The Mistake takes a deep dive into how quickly your life can unravel due to one stupid mistake.
If you enjoyed Amanda's bestseller The Phone Call, I guarantee you'll race through her latest book. It’s another fast-paced thriller with plenty of twists and turns and a protagonist you can root for.
It's definitely one of those ‘just one more chapter’ books that will keep you reading long past your bedtime. You can check it out here.
In other book news, while awaiting the launch of The Husband Before You in a fortnight, I'm making good progress with the book after that, which will be my tenth psych thriller and my fifth with Bookouture.
I'm now at 39,000 words, which means I'm more or less halfway through the first draft.
My deadline isn't until May, but I know how life has a habit of muscling in and laughing at your writing schedules when you least need it to, so I'm trying to push on while I can. Let's hope it's all downhill from now!
That's all from me for today. I'll be in touch in a couple of weeks to let you know when The Husband Before You is out.
In the meantime, take care and happy reading!
Amanda
