The Bigamist by Rona Halsall (Bookouture)

Sam, who is in a similar situation as Emma, is someone she meets while attending a grieving group. Things go swiftly as their friendship and love develop, Emma begins to wonder if Sam is speaking the truth about everything. It is understandable that Emma is distraught when she phones Sam one day and a woman answers who claims to be his wife. Emma, who is pregnant and bewildered, believes she is going crazy.

And what about Emma, is she really truthful? Nothing is as it seems.

This is ideal for fans of domestic suspense since it is full of interesting twists and surprises. Good read for a boring evening. 

To really appreciate this work, you must suspend all skepticism, and that is huge although. Simply put, people do not behave as this book portrays them to. It is highly implausible.

"Bigamist" was disappointing all around. I had hoped for a narrative that was more interesting and well-developed, as well as for characters that were real and understandable.

Too soapy for my liking.
