SOLVED. Thriller - A man who is pretending to be deaf sleeps with a woman he picks up in a bar in the first 10-20 pages. [s]

The woman begins to suspect he is not truly deaf and even makes a loud noise when he is not looking to see if she can scare him and make him jump or react. This book seemed very weird when I first flipped through it but now I want to know where it was going.

Could it possibly be My Lovely Wife by Samantha Downing?

That's it! Thank you.
