Later, I realize the awful truth. Because of my injury, I’m unable to feel the same emotion towards those I loved. The doctor calls this emotional amnesia, but gazing over at my husband, I call it torture.
As the weeks pass, my family and friends keep me going, especially Charity. Years before, she married my ex-husband and I, in turn, married hers. To keep our friendship group together we kept things civil - I thought we had the perfect blended family.
But once I’m back home, I begin to notice Charity inserting herself into my family. At first it’s little things, her hand lingering a moment too long on my husband’s back, playing the role of hostess in my home at a family barbeque. Then I see her encouraging her wayward brother to pay my only daughter more attention and I feel instantly threatened.
That evening, I am haunted by a familiar nightmare of an unknown man forcing someone under water, vowing that their next breath will be their last. As I gasp for air, my husband tries to comfort me.
But lying there in his arms, I feel anything but reassured. With no one I can really trust, I have to ask myself: does the man who gave me a second chance at love want me gone?
A completely addictive, twist-laden psychological thriller with an ending that will leave you speechless. Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden, Nicole Trope and Adele Parks.

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank Carey Baldwin, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.
OH YEAH!!! Come on, you know I just had to read Second Wives by Carey Baldwin!! Why?! Because I know two real life couples that married each other's spouses. So….I needed to know what twisted juicy storyline she had for her fictional characters. Carey totally exceeded my expectations big time!!!
As always I have to give kudos to the extremely talented graphic designers at Bookouture for designing a beautiful cover!
Oh how I couldn’t agree more with Brigid about our favorite sport being staying home and cosing up by the fire with a good mystery and cup of apple cider (well make mine a tea though). We both are not fans of the colder months nor skiing!!
Casey sucks you into her addictive and fast paced storyline straight from the intense prologue! From there Casey takes you on a wild twisted drama filled rollercoaster ride! This is unlike any psychological thriller you have read prior!
The ups and downs of the families and their friendships is the key theme of Second Wives.
Carey fascinated me with introducing me to what emotional amnesia as this played a key role into one of the storylines.
WOW!! Never in a million years did I see that major climatic twist coming out of the blue! You think you knew how this story would end but never ever this way!!! Mind blown!!!
Second Wives is a must read for Carey Baldwin fans! It is emotional, intense, twisted, has shock value, and packed with drama!!! I would highly suggest this too. your TBR!
