I’m super excited to say I’m on the book tour for His Double Life by Nicole Trope. Thanks to Bookouture for the gifted ebook.

Loving father. Loyal husband. Liar?

In our large family home on a peaceful, tree-lined street, I clear away the breakfast things whilst my husband ignores me, his eyes on his phone. Leo comes home from conferences with flowers for me and hugs for our twin ten-year-old boys, but each time I smell an unfamiliar perfume on his shirt. I know all about his affairs and it’s tearing my heart in two.

When one of the boys tumbles into the kitchen, full of laughter that he beat his brother in the race home from the park, I smile despite everything. When his brother isn’t right behind him, I start to worry… and then I get a text that makes my blood run cold. If you want your child to come home, your husband needs to tell the truth.

Is my husband hiding even darker secrets than his affairs? As I realise his double life has put my children in terrible danger, I make a promise: I will not let my husband’s lies destroy my life. And I will do anything to get my son back…

A totally addictive page-turner about terrible secrets within a marriage, perfect for fans of Big Little Lies and Sally Hepworth.

I love a psychological thriller, and His Double Life is such a twisty read. Nicole Trope has always written a great book, so I was eager to read this. I wasted no time in getting stuck into it.

We meet Diana and her husband, Leo. Married with twins, their outward image is one of perfection. Behind closed doors, however, is a different story. Leo has secrets that he holds close. He comes home smelling of a perfume that isn’t Diana’s. He showers her with gifts whenever he has been away at sales conferences. Until the day secrets begin to rise to the surface.

Told from multiple points of view which always helps me get a fully rounded view of the story. One which is told from the past and the present, which I also thoroughly enjoy! The characters were so vivid that they felt like they could be real. They evoked emotions within me as I read. For me, this is the sign of a great book.

Short chapters made this a book I wasn’t willing to put down. I found it so gripping with so many shocks and surprises along the way. The best part of them, are that you don’t always see them looming! I couldn’t have wished for more. I was totally immersed in His Double Life for the time it took me to read it.

Altogether, a well paced psychological thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat as I turned the pages. I finished it far too soon for my liking!

About the author

Nicole Trope went to university to study Law but realised the error of her ways when she did very badly on her first law essay because-as her professor pointed out- ‘It’s not meant to be a story.’ She studied teaching instead and used her holidays to work on her writing career and complete a Masters’ degree in Children’s Literature.

The idea for her first published novel, The Boy under the Table, was so scary that it took a year for her to find the courage to write the emotional story. She went on to publish a further five novels in Australia before joining Bookouture in 2019. She is a USA Today and Amazon bestseller in the USA, UK, AUS and CAN.

She lives in Sydney with her husband and three children.
