Story
Investigative journalist Laura Chambers is back in her tiny hometown of Hillsborough, North Carolina, the one place she swore never to return. Fired from The Boston Globe, her career in shambles, she reluctantly takes a job with the local paper. The work is simple, unimportant, and worst of all, boring - at least until a missing girl turns up dead, the body impeccably clean, dressed to be the picture of innocence. Years earlier, 10-year-old Patty Finch left home and never made it back. But for the people of Hillsborough, Patty was just the beginning.

Story
Visiting her family's South Carolina estate, socialite Gray Godfrey wakes from a night out to an empty bed. Her husband, Paul, is gone, and a thrashing hangover has wiped her memory clean. At first, she's relieved for the break from her tumultuous marriage; perhaps Paul just needed some space. But when his car is found abandoned on the highway, Gray must face the truth: Paul is gone. And Gray may not want him found. Her life is unraveling. When a stranger named Annie calls claiming to know Paul's whereabouts, Gray reluctantly accepts her help.

And then, in the back of a wardrobe, I find something that shatters everything.... Sparkling green eyes, square jaw, lopsided smile. A young man with his arm around a beautiful woman. The picture is old and faded, but I’d recognize him anywhere. The man is my husband.

Most women would fall to their knees in tears and throw him out of the house - but I just can't bring myself to do it. Instead, I go home and cook a healthy dinner for our children, walk the dog, and unload the dishwasher without complaint. I need this marriage to work to protect a terrible secret of my own....

When you listen to this audiobook, you will make many assumptions. You will assume you are listening to a story about a jealous ex-wife. You will assume she is obsessed with her replacement - a beautiful, younger woman who is about to marry the man they both love. You will assume you know the anatomy of this tangled love triangle. Assume nothing. Twisted and deliciously chilling, The Wife Between Us exposes the secret complexities of an enviable marriage - and the dangerous truths we ignore in the name of love.

Publisher's Summary
Sometimes the truth is darker than fiction.
Liza Cole has 30 days to write the thriller that could put her back on the best-seller list. In the meantime, she's struggling to start a family with her husband, who is distracted by the disappearance of his best friend, Nick. With stresses weighing her down in both her professional and her personal lives, Liza escapes into writing her latest heroine, Beth.
Beth is a new mother who suspects her husband is cheating on her while she's home alone caring for their newborn. Angry and betrayed, she sets out to catch him in the act and to make him pay for shattering the illusion of their perfect life. But before she realizes it, she's tossing the body of her husband's mistress into the East River.
Then the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. Nick's body is dragged from the same river, and Liza's husband is arrested for his murder. Before her deadline is up, Liza will have to face up to the truths about the people around her, including herself. If she doesn't, the end of her heroine's story could be the end of her own.

time for a literary shower
You know how you feel after you eat half a bag of mini kit kat bars or at least one serving of every sweet at a potluck dinner? Like you're a bit dirty, somehow, and need to eat a carrot and do at least an hour on the exercise bike? This book left me feeling like that. Only without any of the pleasure that the kit kats or desserts would give me. The whole time I was reading it, I was just hating myself for going on with it, but I had paid for it and, after returning several less-than-stellar books in a row, I felt like I couldn't return yet another.
Ugh. This book is just stupid. The writing is cliched and hackneyed. The plot line is BEYOND ridiculous and you don't even give a crap about a single character, so you cannot forgive any of the other flaws. Life is so precious and I just wasted too much of it (not to mention space in my brain, which is also limited) on this rubbish. Sigh.
I have to remember, in future, to read the negative reviews and not just the glowing reviews which are apparently written by friends, family and editors (if there are any in this world anymore) who are invested in the book doing well.

Truth is stranger than fiction is stranger than fiction is stranger..,.
Wow, I love this book! It started out a little bit slow and at first I thought this was going to turn out to be chic lit and that doesn't thrill me. But I persevered! And I am so glad I did, this book turned out to be anything but.
There is an author who writes crime novels married to an attorney. She is writing a novel about a crime reporter who is married to a prosecutor. The reporter just had a baby and finds out her husband is having an affair. The novelist is on fertility medication and finds out her husband is having an affair. Both husbands are charged with murder when their illicit partners are murdered. The lines between fact and fiction are crossed when the fictional character begins to communicate with her author. The last three hours are pulse pounding as you wait to find out and there's really no clue about the author or her husband's guilt, or her sanity.
The story plays out with two narrators (Amy McFadden and Lisa Larsen), each character having their own voice even though one is "fictional"... Both narrators are excellent.
This book reminds me of a matryoshka doll (a Russian nesting doll) where you have the main doll on the outside and dolls of decreasing sizes nested one within the next.
This book has my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!

Thank You.

Imaginings and Truths - Two Worlds Collide
This dramatic thriller deals deftly in the real and the surreal, and the inscrutability of the interchange between an author's life versus her imaginings as a writer.
Under editorial pressure to produce a long-overdue second bestseller, Liza takes to her laptop to write what she hopes will be an explosive romantic suspense hit. We hear alternating POVs between Liza in real life, and Liza's character, Beth, as she develops on the page in 'real-time.' Beth has an infant; Liza has been trying to get pregnant for years. Both have lawyer husbands. Beth's husband is cheating; Liza's husband is devastated since his friend and law partner Nick disappeared, and Liza becomes suspicious about the circumstances. Lines between truth and fiction, memory or dream, become blurred, leading to a climactic ending that did not disappoint.
This novel was well-written and the plot was unique and interesting. Once I got into it, I was hooked- about 1/4 of the way in- so give it a while to sink your teeth in. The characters were thoughtfully conceived and portrayed realistically in their roles.
Also, the relationship between Liza and her long-time best friend, Chris, is one of the best portrayals of an honest, bulletproof, one hundred percent, got-your-back (instead of 'stab you in the back') female friendship that I have seen in a book, ever. I called my best friend as soon as I finished it!
The narration was great for Liza, so-so for Beth-her tone was kind of flat at times making it lack feeling.
Otherwise-
Suspenseful, dramatic, murder mystery with a twist- I highly recommend 'Lies She Told.'

Lies She Told
The story of this book was just okay. It’s an interesting premise, but the author used plot twists that have been used over and over again, and I’m so tired of seeing them in thrillers.
The narration was hit and miss for me. The narrator for Liza did a great job, but the narrator for Beth was awful. Over pronouncing words and never ending a sentence on a full stop almost drove me crazy. Overall, I’d say find a different thriller to listen to.

Second Half is Better Than First Half
I seriously considered quitting this book multiple times in the first half. The set up takes way too long. The lead female characters are unbelievable and overly emotional. The narration is very poor.
However, it did pick up significantly in the second half and I found that I was actually enjoying the story line. I was surprised by the plot twist.
Overall I wouldn't recommend this unless you're looking to get rid of credits.

Truthful review about "Lies".
Would you try another book from Cate Holahan and/or Amy McFadden and Lisa Larsen ?
The narrators saved this book. Both narrators were excellent. The book itself was very disappointing. I selected this book because I enjoyed "The Widower's Wife" and, perhaps, I had high expectations. I listened to the entire book and it was not time well spent.
Would you be willing to try another book from Cate Holahan? Why or why not?
No. I did not like this book or her "Dark Turns" book. As previously stated, I really enjoyed "The Widower's Wife".
What about Amy McFadden and Lisa Larsen ’s performance did you like?
Both narrators were excellent. I always like it when there are multiple narrators because it makes a book easier to follow and also provides the listener with a better understanding of the characters.
Do you think Lies She Told needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?
Please.....NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This audiobook was not for me although I did finish it rather than returning it.

Great Story
Extremely clever having two stories running parallel. Fictional writer, Eliza, unknowingly writes her new novel based on her own reality which she has buried so deep, she has no recollection. She believes her story is just make believe. But Beth, her lead character and Eliza are one of the same, with murder on their minds.

awful voice
I was disappointed in this one, the concept sounded interesting but I really struggled particularly with the voice of Beth. She sounded bored and was possibly the worst reader I have ever come across.

Great story
I thought this story was great, and I enjoyed how there were 2 stories. Both of them kept me gripped

Ok writing, poor/no plot
There is no real story here, other than what the synopsis tells you. No development of plot or progression of anything. Very early on, the "twist" is made *extremely* obvious to the reader. Because of this, I thought there was going to be a "twist on the twist" - unfortunately there isn't. The chapters plod along at a reasonable pace but never turn into anything which I just found frustrating. The writing itself isn't bad; the author tells us a bit about each relationship and things happen, but by the time you're a couple of chapters in, you've figured out the entire story and ending.
I wish I could add a spoiler cover (like on Reddit) to explain exactly what I mean but unfortunately I can't :(
There are times when the main character (Liza) is so *unbelievably* dim that I shouted at my phone "OH COME ON!" e.g. All the hints Liza is given about burying the gun. More and more characters behaving stupidly and not acting like real humans do.
Wouldn't recommend spending a credit on this. It's free as part of the Plus catalogue so I'm not too bothered, but a shame as the author had the makings of an interesting book!

Poorly Narrated
I can generally listen to a whole story even though I don't like, but this one took the cake I made it to 7 chapters and just couldn't get it and the storyline
