What do you do when your lover keeps disappearing from your life? If he seems too good to be true? Three women have a man in their lives who is only in their lives part time, but has very valid reasons for disappearing, or does he? It jumps around a lot and the title gives it away a bit but its a good read and there is a lot more going on to keep you entertained than the title suggests. Well worth a read.

This book is about a man who is not only living a double life but a triple life. Jack has been married to Holly for almost twenty years and they have three children. Jessica has been dating Jon and recently move in order to work for his company. Lark is in a relationship with Trip, a handsome man she met at a bar one night. I will admit that Jon/Jack/Trip did a good job of lying to everyone in his life. That is until his wife Holly finds out about everything and works together with the other women to take her husband down. After finishing the book, I realized that this reminded me a little bit of that movie called The Other Woman with Cameron Diaz. Most of the book was slow moving gathering all the details of Jon/Jack/Trip's life with his various women and how easily he lied to them all the time. Whatever Mr. Wright's real name is I think he a terrible person and deserved what he got in the end. Overall, I thought this book was okay. I appreciate NetGalley for giving me a copy of this book to review.

His life in general had been a neatly wrapped package of lies.

Jonathan Wright, also known as Jon, Jack to close friends, Trip to new "friends", has everything a man could ever want. A beautiful family, gorgeous and devoted wife, successful business, smart and ambitious girlfriend. Jon Wright is not an ordinary man. He is a man with a constant need for new experiences, new challenges, new business ideas, new cars, new hobbies, new lovers. His life is a constant movement, to a new city, a new country, a new lover's bed. But all good things at one time or another come to an end, and Jon's was not an exception.

Three strangers, divided by social class, age, and status have one thing in common: they've been deceived by a master of lies. And they unite to bring Jon's cruel actions to justice.

I loved the plot, what a phenomenal and catching story. However, the ending was very disappointing and dry. It felt like a typical Hollywood movie ending. I expected better twists and more amusing revenge. Nevertheless, I've enjoyed the novel. Thank you NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for a free and advanced copy of the book.

Holly has been married to Jack for nineteen years and they share three children. Jessica has moved across the country to work for Jon, the man she is in a secret relationship with. Lark meets Trip in a hotel bar and their one night stand quickly becomes a whirlwind, cross-country romance and business relationship. What do these three women's stories have in common? They are all with the same man, Jonathan Mitchell Wright III.

This book was a fun and interesting read with a fairly satisfying twist at the end. I could have done without quite so many f-bombs and other language.

Thank you to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for access to this ARC.

Holly is married to Jack, a doctor running Cancura, a facility that hopes to cure cancer.
Lark meets Trip, a too-good-to-be-true wealthy older man who funds her dreams of marketing her board game and starting her own business, as well as starting a relationship with this man. Jessica is invited by Jonathan to work at Cancura and she leaps at the chance to be on the forefront of science. They then marry in Mexico.

The problem is Jack, Jonathan, and Trip are all the same man. What is wrong with Mr. Wright?

This book delivered what it promised: a story of how one man’s lies catch up with him in a delicious tale of betrayal and lies. It is very Desperate Hoisewives-esque and I raced through it because I couldn’t wait to see Jack/Trip/Jonathan’s downfall.

I do wish more had happened to Jonathan at the end. I honestly was hoping for a murder plot, but the end surprised (and maybe disappointed) me a little. However, it was still worth the read, and if you want to watch a train wreck, this is the book for you!

Thanks to NetGalley, the Linda Keith duo, and Lake Union Publishing for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, it was such a page turner! The idea behind it isn't anything new, but the way in which it unfolded was brillianty, particularly seeing the POV from each of the Mrs. Wrights!

Lark, Jessica, and Holly are three strangers with so much in common it hurts. Their one and only is one and the same.

The charming Mr. Wright’s serial lies are about to catch up with him…

I loved the book, super intense and with very interesting characters. I loved the structure of the book showing the point of view of each character

What a summer read! This is a book that will definitely keep your attention. This is the story of a man and his many women who he underestimates in such a large way. He doesn't think they will figure out but they do and that is when it really gets interesting.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC!

This is SUCH a great summer read! Three wives, one man, a thrilling story of their escapades, deception, lies, and love. I finished it in 2 days. It’s the kind of book I wish were longer because I don’t want it to be over. It would make a great movie!

The Three Mrs Wright by Linda Keir is the story of a man who is leading 3 different lives with 3 different women. To Holly, he is her husband and father of her 3 kids , to Lark, an angel investor and dream guy; to Jessica, a devoted scientist and soulmate. To each woman he seems like a remarkable guy just that he travels a lot. For work. Or maybe not.

The premise seems to be interesting and the authors have kept hard at trying to explain how this one man spends time with 3 women in 3 different places but as soon as the plot thickens the book kind of wraps up. The writing is smooth. Each of the three women are given backgrounds and we kind of see them develop but our Mr Wright remains elusive much as to why he would do what he does.

Thanks NetGalley ad the publishers for the eARC.

The book was an interesting read to start with but it failed to pack a punch. While the concept was great the plot didn’t do it justice. I don’t think I ever fully understood why Jack/John/Tripp wanted 3 wives. It don’t make sense in the book. Also up to the 65% mark the plot only revolves around how he’s handling 3 women. The real story began after that. To me the climax was rushed and did not offer very convincing explanations. All in all this was an average read.

Wow! This story brings new meaning to "secret life". How this guy kept it straight was absolutely astonishing! This storyline was enthralling. I liked each of the Mrs. Wrights--but they were all so different. If anything, I would have liked to learn more about the relationship between Mr. Wright and his children, as that was not a huge factor, but the way that he held full relationships with all three of these seemingly very smart women was amazing. Great writing! Great story that keeps you on the edge of your seat to the very end! Quick read too!

Thank you netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read The Three Mrs Wrights!
I was completely into this one and was excited to keep reading until — I wasn’t ! Being an avid reader I am more than capable of keeping track of several books at a time but this one became sort of confusing to me and I lost interest! I did finish it but admit I skimmed an awful lot! Maybe I wasn’t in the right frame of mind for this one but once I realized that the Mr Wright was actually galavanting and living a secret life with not just two but three different women I was like really?! I found he wasn’t even that interesting 🤔 maybe it’s also because of the back and forth between all the characters but this particular one didn’t knock it out of the park for me !

interesting book of a con man who marries or plans to marry 3 different women. When they find out the game is on. Fun and easy summer read, and one I highly recommend.

"The Three Mrs Wrights" is about a wealthy, charismatic con-man and the three women who believe they are in exclusive romantic relationships with him. The premise was intriguing, the writing was serviceable. I do wish that the book had given more insight into the life of *Mr* Wright. It captured me and kept me reading, though, all the way to the last satisfying pages.

My thanks to #NetGalley , the author and publisher for this opportunity. #TheThreeMrsWrights

Jon M. Wright,is a wealthy doctor who owns a medical research corporation. He gives a TED talk, "How I Lied about My Name and Discovered My Truth."
Yes, he lied about his name. His wife calls him Jack. Two women that he has picked up know him as Jon or Trip. One sentence from his TED talk is given before each chapter. The chapters themselves are about the three women.
Wonderful story with great character development. I'd like to read more books by the authors (Linda Joffe Hull and @KeirGraff )
