After both of them lost their spouses, Drew and Mark found happiness again together. But Drew has some secrets that could blow it all up.

While I did find the premise intriguing and was really think I'd love it, this was a bit of a let down for me. The story itself felt like it lacked a clear direction, there was so much going on, and the twists were so predictable, yet so incredibly out there that it felt almost comical at points. There was only one thing that truly did get me, but the more I sit on it, the more it feels so extremely rushed and just thrown in there for shock value. The characters were all off, and while I usually don't have any issues with not liking characters in this genre of books, I do have issues with how plain and not fleshed out they were, because the potential was definitely there. It also felt like it was dragging a little in certain bits, but that wasn't extremely bad. That said, it was fairly quick to read, and it did keep me entertained whenever I picked it up. I really liked the writing, and I wish I liked it more than I did, because I really do think it has potential, and I'm sure there are people who will absolutely love it.

Many thanks to Bookouture & NetGalley for the eARC. All opinions are my own.

My first L G D’avis book and it did not disappoint! It kept me guessing, and when Martin was revealed, my jaw was on the floor! Great book, thanks for my advanced copy!

This was a fantastic book! The ending was amazing, with tons of twists and turns that I wasn't expecting. I've read a handful of books by this author, and I've loved every single one. She is an amazing author! I definitely recommend this book (and author) to other thriller readers!

Unfortunately, I do not agree with the other reviews on this case. I didn't think this book was good. Way too many boundary issues between sister and brother, and just unbelieve situations. Would Drew really marry Mark in real life? Just so far out there in my opinion. And why is Sarah so obsessed with her brother? It's pretty obvious as well that Tia is a suspicious friend. Why is she always asking so many questions? The only huge shock in this book is when it is revealed who Martin is. Just wasn't that interesting to me. Usually books by L.G. Davis are great; this fell short.

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for an early copy of The New Marriage. The cover was nice. There were a few stories going on in this book and I like when it wraps up nicely which this did. A BIGGGGGGGGGGGG twist towards the end and there were many little ones too. The epilogue was the BEST part of how this could have ended, I liked it, what does that say about me? A thrilling, twisty, dark read, LOVED IT!!!

Wow this story had many twists towards the end that I did not guess at all and kept me on my toes all the way through till the epilogue. I read this so quickly and did not want to put it down. I wanted to see how it would end!


I really enjoyed the writing style and am looking forward to reading more books from this author. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys thrillers.

WOW!!! The author has an incredible gift of writing psychological thrillers…I was just blown away by everything in this book and need to read more by this author. Needless to say I am an instant huge fan!

This is one of my top reads for the year so far.

It is a fascinating insight into the marriage of Mark and Drew. Both seem like lovely people on the outside but secretly thay have hidden dimensions.

Secrets in a marriage are usually one sided but when both spouses are hiding something so dark it could destroy everything around them..well this makes for excellent reading.

it is pacy, filled with twists and an ending to die for..

I just finished one of the best thrillers I’ve read lately. The New Marriage by LG Davis is a must read!

One of my top ten reads this year. Wow!!! The jaw dropping twist this book gave was insane. A really nice read that pulls you in instantly. Deffo recommend xx

I love L.G. Davis and her writing style. They are quick reads and full of twists and turns. The ending is the perfect climax.

The ending blew me away. It’s hard for thrillers to find really great endings with a twist you don’t see coming when all you read are thrillers, but this one did. I will be reading more from this author for sure.

Mark and Drew had secrets hidden in their marriage, some more detrimental than others. Both characters were hard to like and warm up to, but I think that was the point. Neither was the “better” of the two in my opinion.

I read this so quickly I might go back and read it again. Thank you so much for this ARC.

A PAGE TURNER definitely!!!! I couldn't put it down once I started reading it. Twists after twists!! secrets after secrets revealed AND TILL THE VERY END!!!! You think you know what happened who did what but again and again you are proven wrong!

I ENJOYED READING IT SO MUCH!

I received an ARC copy of this book. Another great book by LG Davis. She has become one of my favorite authors.

It kept me entertained and on my toes. I had a hard time putting it down because her writing style keeps you engaged.

A few twists and turns that got me.
Definitely recommend checking this one out!

On the surface, Mark and Drew have a happy marriage, but both are keeping secrets. Some secrets are harmless enough, but both Mark and Drews secrets are not the harmless kind, and if they came to light could cause devastation in their lives, with a strong possibility their marriage would not survive. Drew especially has difficult decisions to make, which will be life changing whichever road she chooses.
This is a five star read, a roller coaster of a story, with lots of unexpected twists and turns in the plot, and an ending I did not foresee. I read it in one sitting, staying up late to finish, as I really wanted to know how it ended.

I can still not wrap my head around how LG Davis completely threw my off with the ending of this book. I was completely shocked! I love a good book that has to in suspense.

I LOVED this book! Kept me on my toes... full of suspense and drama!

Another twisty page-turner from L.G Davis. Just when I thought l'd worked everything out, another plot twist appeared. Read it in two nail-biting sittings as I didn't want to put it down.

Mark and Drew’s relationship was a complex one full of secrets and everything else in between! I didn’t particularly warm to either of the characters.

Nonetheless, a thrilling read that keeps you engrossed right up until the very last page!

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 stars from me!

Everybody makes mistakes and some are a lot worse than others. Although they are a lot harder to forgive, it's always better to confess and face the music. Sometimes the fear for what will happen is so big, you decide to bury your head in the sand and pretend it maybe did not happen, but guild is something that will always stay by your side.

Every day you live with the fear someone will find out what happened. You go into discussion with yourself, trying to decide what you should do. And when you have figured it out, someone slams the door to your way out tight shut...

Yes, it happened again. The author had me believing everything she delivered me on a silver platter. I fell for it, hook, line and sinker. My mouth fell open, not once, not twice, but multiple times. I loved it. 5 stars.

Thank you

Everyone has secrets in this thrilling drama.
A host of mainly unlikeable characters.
A storyline which is a little over the top in places but i was hooked.
The ending was a real mind blower!
My thanks to netgalley and the publisher for my copy.
