‘We have a patient who has been involved in a serious accident. We believe he’s your husband.’
When Freya first met Phil, she thought he was the man of her dreams. He bought her roses every week, booked surprise trips to sun-soaked destinations, and showed her affection like she’d never experienced before. But over time the dream has become a violent nightmare. And now Freya is packing her bags, knowing it’s time she escaped their increasingly broken marriage.
But then Freya gets a visit from the police. Phil’s been in a horrific car crash and – as he comes around – it becomes clear that he remembers nothing since their blissful honeymoon two years before, back when their relationship was perfect. All he wants is to be happily married again.
Freya knows giving him another chance could be dangerous. But now he’s the one who needs her, it’s a chance to turn the tables, and to change the outcome of their relationship once and for all. After all, he will only know what she chooses to tell him…
But what really happened during those two years of marriage? And as they start over again, who is safe? And whose life is in danger?
Fans of The Girl on the Train, Behind Closed Doors and Date Night, who are looking for a dark, gripping psychological suspense novel, will love The Stranger in My Bed.

First, I want to thank Karen King, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.
Ohh Stranger in my Bed by Karen King is a twisted book that surely lives up to its title! This is a must read for all of you Psychological Thriller fans out there! It is so twisted, gripping, incredibly evil at times, mind blowing revelations to hidden secrets you don't see coming. Plus, oh so much family drama! Amazing read by such a talented author.
This book is dedicated to Sharon. Karen thanks you for all of your years of friendship and support.
Ohh Karen’s prologue is oh so good and yet so evil!! It instantly hooks you into the storyline. Plus, it leaves you wanting to know why this sinister act happened. What possessed this character to do what they did.
Warning: This book contains triggers of abusive relationships and those who choose to stay in those relationships. If this offends you this may not be the book for you.
My heart goes out to Freya (love that name) who’s husband is in a coma after being in a terrible car accident.
For me personally I had a love hate relationship with the character Phil. I wanted to like him and give him a second chance but he so rubbed me the wrong way in so many ways. Something was not right about him.
Stranger in my Bed fascinated me with the memory loss storyline due traumatic brain injury Phil suffered from the car accident. Not remembering two important years of his life with Freya was devastating on Phil and heaven sent on Freya.
Smiles came to my face as Freya and Phil were looking at old photos and reminiscing over the fond memories they shared together as a couple.
I enjoyed learning how Freya and Phil met and their love story.
Ohhh what a dirty, twisted, evil bombshell Karen throws at her readers in this book’s storyline. I never saw this plot twist coming. So many reasons this was so wrong but so right to reveal at this time! So evil too!
Someone definitely has it out for Phil and wants him dead but who and why?
Throughout this book there were some incredibly graphic and detailed scenes. Karen did an incredible job bringing out all of the emotions in each of the characters in these scenes. Some of them pulled on my heart strings and wanted to stop the abuse that was going on. Many were totally shocking scenes that were unthinkable in real life.
I am so thankful Karen took a chance and stepped away from the Romance genre to write this Psychological Thriller! I have not had the pleasure of reading her previous books but can tell you she has mad talent in this genre. I absolutely loved this book-and would read more of in this genre!
