Unfaithful by Natalie Barelli


My Rating: ★★★★


This was one crazy read!

When Anna, a math professor, arrives unannounced at her husband’s studio in need of a shoulder to cry on after hearing that her best PhD student, Alex, has died, she sees a pair of wineglasses drying by the sink and her deepest fear is confirmed that her husband is having an affair.

Instead of confronting her husband and throwing him out of the house, Anna goes about her life without any complaint. She needs her marriage to work to protect a terrible secret, something that would destroy everything she has already sacrificed so much for.

But then threatening text messages start appearing on her phone, she realises that someone close has been watching her very carefully.

This entire plot is so well written and the author has done an excellent job of grabbing the reader’s attention. When I started reading this and almost halfway into the book, it was okay and I definitely didn’t expect it to end the way it did. 

The main character Anna is so well characterized, there are times that you find her annoying but at the same time you find yourself feeling slightly sympathetic towards her looking at her situation. But the main highlight for me is the entire second half of the book. It is filled with unexpected twists and revelations which are at a completely different level.

Oh, and the title of the book was a perfect fit too! 

Overall an excellent read! Highly recommended!

Thank You to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!
