The Ex-Husband by Karen Hamilton

-

Happy Sunday! Today I want to share with you The Ex-Husband, the third book by Karen Hamilton. It comes out on January 18th and you will want to add to your TBR! This is my first Karen Hamilton book and in piqued my interest when Graydon House offered this blog tour. I greatly appreciate being able to spread the word about this thrilling book. I have a new author to add to my list!

Review:

This is a story of con artists. A husband and wife, Sam and Charlotte, target couples on cruises until the wife has second thoughts.

The book is told before and after the ‘death’ of the husband. The wife is working for an important client on a yacht when she receives threats to expose her past. This is the after. The before is the story of the couple on the cruise ships and their relationship.

I thought this was a very good book. It has a solid plot, good characters, and a beautiful setting. It also has a surprise ending!

Author Info:

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il

Thank you to Rachel’s Random Resources for putting together this virtual book tour! About the Book: For Iris , each visit to her mother in St Mabon’s Cove, Cornwall has been the same – a serene escape from the city. But today, as she breathes in the salt air on the doorstep of her beloved childhood home, a heavy weight of anticipation settles over her. Iris knows she’s adopted, but any questions about where she came from have always been shut down by her parents, who can’t bear to revisit the past. Now, Iris can’t stop thinking about what she’s read on the official paperwork: BABY GIRL, FRANCE, 1939 – the year war was declared with Nazi Germany. When Iris confronts her mother, she hits the same wall of pain and resistance as whenever she mentions the war. That is, until her mother tearfully hands her an old tin of letters, tucked neatly beside a delicate piece of ivory wool. Retreating to the loft, Iris steels herself to at last learn the truth, however painful it might be. Bu
