You love him. You’ll do anything for him. But do you really know him?This is the story of Lucy and Paul.
They met. They fell deeply in love. They got married.
Lucy thought that she had everything she wanted.
Until she found the photograph from Paul’s past life, read the text messages he’s so desperately trying to hide. Until she uncovered Paul’s darkest secrets.
Now Lucy realises she doesn’t really know her husband. She doesn’t know if she can trust her own mind. She doesn’t know the lengths Paul would go to keep his perfect life.
And worst of all, she doesn’t know that she’s in danger…
A gripping, dark psychological thriller with an absolutely nail-biting ending that will keep you hooked – the perfect read for fans of Behind Closed Doors, Mark Edwards and Lisa Jewell.
Elena Wilkes grew up in Walsall in the West Midlands. After eighteen years of working in H.M Prisons, she emigrated to New Zealand. She now lives in Shropshire. ‘The Man I Married’ is the author’s debut novel and will be published by Hera Books in August 2020.

Review by
Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank Elana Wilkes, Hera Books, NetGalley, and BOTBSPublicity for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
WOW!! What a twisted must read book!! After reading Elana Wilkes The Man I Married I am reminded that being single is not so bad! This book reads like an intense man hating movie from the Lifetime Channel!! It is that good!
The graphic designers did an incredible job with the graphics on this cover! They were beautiful and so perfect to the storyline!
Elana’s prologue is intense, deep, descriptive and got your attention very quickly. I loved how she drew me in so quickly to the storyline. From there and all the way through the book it was incredibly fast paced-which I loved. I was glued to the book until the last page!
This book does cover some topics that may be triggers to some readers. If child sex offenders, pedifila, stalkers, abductions, murderers bother you then this may not be the book for you.
I was not a huge fan of Paul’s even from the beginning. He just rubbed me the wrong way. Then again his personality reminded me of my ex’s.
Simon’s Story was very interesting.
Elana has a true gift for writing in this genre. I was totally shocked and dumbfounded by the ending of the book as it totally took me by surprise. Never did I see any of that coming.
If you read Elana’s letter at the back of the book you will learn about her 18 years working at H.M. Prison. There she met a prisoner who was a lot like the one she writes about in this book. She must have seen and learned a lot of fascinating things working there. It paid off in this book!
