CC Morian has upped her game once again. The Wife 2 is, without a doubt, the most erotic psychological thriller I have read!
I’ll leave it to you to read the “About this Book” and I’m not going to tell you anything more because you’ll miss the thrills.
In Wife 1, we read about Preston and the Tattoo Lady. They are a mystery couple. Joanne is infatuated with Preston and the Tattoo Lady seems to be a forceful impediment to Joanne exploring Preston. How it works out rides a knife-edge throughout the story.
If you recall “The Lover”, there was a mystery man behind door number 3 on the night of Phillip’s birthday, and Joanne’s final night with Michael. That mystery scene is revealed, and it turned out totally differently than I expected.
Through all these escapades, the relationship between Phillip and Joanne strengthens, but that doesn’t mean that Phillip’s and Joanne’s marriage is out of the woods. I honestly had to keep reading because there were few clues as to how it would turn out.
Along with the mystery, the sex was genuinely off the charts. And I’m not certain I could handle any more anxiety, particularly about children mused about in Wife 1. I just had to streak to the end to settle my emotions.
Fortunately there is a great Epilogue, that comes with the book, wherein much more is explained, and relationships continue and expand.
While this is totally not a cliff-hanger, there are lots of further avenues to explore. I’m hoping this is not the finish, and we see Joanne and Phillip continue their exploration of their lifestyle. I refer to it as “their lifestyle” because it feels that it isn’t easily categorized - Hotwife just doesn’t do it justice.
5 stars also doesn’t do justice to this book, but there you have it.
I can’t wait for the next book from this insightful author with the totally wicked imagination!
