The Wrong Woman by OJ Mullen is about Julia her husband Rob and their life together. They are very busy at work and find it hard to spend quality time together and it doesn’t help when Rob gives in and for the first time in their long married life has an affair. At the same time Julia gets a new coworker named Ellis. He is a native of Scotland but has been living in South Africa for the past few years and Julia does not like the way it feels every time she sees him staring at her. It doesn’t help matters when the coworkers go to a pub and after he tells her about his heart breaking history in South Africa she kisses him and although she soon regrets it he takes it for something it wasn’t and then builds on that. While Julia is fending off Ellis and his crush, Rob is trying his best to resist the beautiful Michelle and failing. In the end the couple will learn extramarital affairs can be deadly. Honestly in the beginning I started to get bored but not for long and I powered through and OMG was it so so worth it. Around the fourth or fifth chapter the book got great and stayed that way not to mention the historical moments in history Mr. Mullen ads to the story only makes it that much more interesting. When the story got going it kept going and the twist and surprises just made the book a super Duper read! The author seems to have a great knack for making likable characters from the couple to the detective that investigates the case there’s many people to route four and I love it all. This is a great read and one I definitely recommend to any thriller fan.#BoldwoodBooks, #NetGalley, #O.J.Mullen, #TheWrongWoman,

I'm reviewing this via NetGalley, as part of a tour with Rachel's Random Resources.

On first impressions, I felt the author presented a scenario that I was keen to know more about. I found that I didn't really identify with any of the characters in particular, but I was interested in them. In fact, the more I kept reading, the more interested I became. As I carried on reading, my uncertainty grew, because I felt that maybe all of the characters had something to hide in some way, that none of them could be fully trusted.

I continued to feel this way in the latter part of the book. This was suspenseful, fast-paced, and had me turning the pages quickly.

Thank you to NetGalley, Rachel's Random Resources, Boldwood Books, and to the author, for the opportunity to read and review this.

This is a really good twisted tale that will keep you guessing about what will happen until the very end. Julia and Rob are married and sure they’re busy, but they just need to make time for themselves. But is everything as good as it seems? Who are the other characters, Ravi and Ellis, and what impact will they have on Julia and Rob's relationship? Highly recommend for thriller lovers. Thank you to NetGalley for letting me read this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
