About this audiobook
"[A] divinely original thriller...a wonderful carousel of revolving suspects, motives, and means, and many people to love and to love to hate."―Publishers Weekly, STARRED Review
An addictive second mystery novel about book clubs, murder, and the domestic secrets inside every household from the author of Pretty Guilty Women!
Three beautiful women. Two wedding bands. One dead husband.
When Anne Wilkes, Eliza Tate, and Penny Sands arrive at book club bearing bottles of wine, none of them are plotting to kill. But when the subject of a philandering husband arises, revenge is in the air. By the end of the night, someone is dead.
Two women with rings on their fingers and one with stars in her eyes. All of them are hiding something. All of them are lying.
What really happened that night? Only the guilty knows. Did one woman take everything too far, or is the truth really more twisted than fiction?
A domestic thriller that will keep you guessing, Three Single Wives is compelling mystery for book clubs that devoured Samantha Downing, Sandi Jones and Lucy Foley.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Annoying one dimensional characters, reasonable plot/pacing. Finished it, but not sure I would go back to this author
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Who murdered Roman?
Roman is one of those men that can easily manipulate woman - he knows just what to say and flirts to get what he wants. But who wants him dead?
Eliza? The wife that suspects Roman of having an affair?
Anne? Eliza's bestie who suspects her own husband of having an affair?
Penny? Newest to the friend circle, but with enough secrets of her own?
Step by step, secrets are revealed and the true identity of the killer is kept until just the perfect moment.
Thank you Netgalley for allowing me to read this and give my honest opinion. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This breezy yet sharp read kept me on my toes until the final reveal. The story begins shortly before the ill fated book club event, and we get to know the inner lives of each woman and how they came together. I found myself really relating to Penny and Anne more so than I did than Eliza, and I looked foreward to their chapters. I never felt like enough time was devoted to Eliza as much as the other women, and thus I couldn’t connect to her. The dialogue was real and you felt like you were eavesdropping on a group of girlfriends at brunch, and the secrets and situations the characters got into weren’t far fetched like in other domestic thrillers. In between each chapter are court transcripts from Roman’s murder trial, which helped add more depth to the secrets the women were hiding. The final reveal as to Roman’s killer came as a complete surprise to me. I quite enjoyed the character development and overall mystery of this book, and plan to seek out Gina LaManna’s other works.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Friends, Book Club and Alcohol, throw in a sleaze bag of a husband, whatever could go wrong! What would you do for a friend? Fun read with a familiar plot but lots of secrets and twists. Characters have many layers, and are developed well throughout the book. The situations are real enough to empathize. Writing was fast paced enough to keep the pages turning. Even though I guessed the killer, it was fun to see it all come together. Another enjoyable read by this author!Thanks to Ms. LaManna, Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for this ARC. Opinion is mine alone.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It took a little bit to get into this murder mystery but I didn't figure out who done it, till towards the end. I received this this book for free and I voluntarily chose to review it. There are a lot of characters in this story and it takes a little while to get them all sorted out. There are a lot of false leads to lead everyone astray. However, it all starts to fall into place toward the end. It has an exciting ending. This is not for the under 18 readers and I've given it a 4.5* rating.
