✨📖 Recommended Read 📖✨

Edlington Library's book recommendation this week is My Husband's Wife by Alice Feeney!

Artist Eden Fox returns from a run to find a stranger living in her home - not only do they look like her and wear her rings but is claimed by Eden’s husband, Harrison, to be his real wife. This is a calculated plot of identity theft, gaslighting and revenge.

Order your copy from the library or download the eBook on Borrowbox!
