The Man She Married

De: Cathy Lamb

Narrado por: Morgan Hallett

In Cathy Lamb's gripping and thought-provoking novel, a woman whose memory is shattered must piece together her husband's secrets - and reevaluate her life, love, and relationships.

When Natalie Shelton thinks back to how things were before the car accident, she remembers a great marriage. She and her husband, Zack, seem as strong and dependable together as the houses he builds. They live in Portland, Oregon, and Natalie is co-owner of a successful accounting firm. They're happy, she's almost sure of it.

Yet as Natalie lies trapped in a coma, unable to communicate though aware of everything around her, she realizes that her husband is hiding something. Zack has always been reticent about his past, which she attributed to an unhappy childhood. Now the strange calls he's receiving, the apologies when he thinks she can't hear him, and her fragmented memories from the morning of the accident suggest a deeper secret.

When she finally awakens, Natalie is determined to find out the truth. Sorting through clues as her brain heals, she realizes she has a rare opportunity - to reexamine the life she's made and the man she's made it with. But as answers come to light, she faces surprising, heartrending decisions, as well as a danger that could upend her world once again, as Zack's past finally catches up with them.

The man she married

Had a great time listening to this book. Funny characters, great humor and excitement as well. Really enjoyed the whole book.

Not too bad but My Goodness why so long

When she woke up I had 9 more hours to go. And the book is 12 hours long so can you imagine my what now!
My goodness! Why all these stories within stories. I had to speed listen for this one. It was not too bad but too much unnecessary dialogue

Pleasantly surprised !!

Wasn’t sure if I would be able to get into this as I’m not into the typical sappy “beach read”… but this was really enjoyable! I had just binged a bunch of thrillers so the slower pace on this was fine for me. Like hanging out w these lovely people. Is it feel good and idealistic? Sure. But the humor and the characters come alive enough to pull you in and make you laugh. I’m even going to have to go find a print version or rewind to write down that rewritten “Lord’s Prayer”. I about fell over w laughter . And I loved how there was humor and respect when she was in the “center”… won’t call it what she does bc no spoilers… but man that could have taken a wrong direction writing that part with so much humor, but it worked.

This had faint reminiscence of Fannie Flagg books…

Meh….

This book was predictable, and sometimes painfully idyllic. I was able to listen to the whole thing with a mild amount of interest. Not the worst book I’ve ever listen to, but definitely not the best.

Great Story

This was a great book. I fell in love with the charters from the beginning. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Loved it

Great likable characters! Cathy Lamb takes a serious car accident mixed in some humor (at least for me) then BOOM a thriller!! WELL DONE! I listened to the audio, which is good!

An intriguing though long drawn out saga

This is the 2nd book I’ve read by this author and so I knew it would end well…but in many places I almost quit, but came back. An interesting writing style & although quirky, I did enjoy it.

Couldn’t put it down!

This was such an interesting book. I liked how it was separated into three parts. Hearing the main characters point of view in different situations was very intriguing.

Will it ever end…

So long and drawn out. There were so much repeating in this book about the characters. It probably could’ve been written in half the length and gotten the story across.

So good

This book was fantastic!!! So well researched! It was entertaining, funny, sad, all the emotions! I loved it! Highly recommend!!
