I'm not certain what to rate this book. I have to think about it a bit more. I didn't hate it, I quite liked it, but it definitely did not go as I expected it to.

the main character seemed very young and naive and the mmc seemed like a bunch of red flags in a trench coat, and he seemed quite scary at times. I was fully expecting that he had killed his wife and was going to show his true colours eventually, with the book ending with the fmc fleeing with the help of another man that she had fallen in love with, but instead she found about the murder and was like: "omg he didn't love her, I'm so happy". Like, girl, what?
