It’s a fairly typical day, albeit a wet one, when an unidentified man is found after seemingly being hit by a car. He has no identification and is transported to hospital in an induced coma. Someone knows more than they’re letting on, and The Truth About the Accident is focused on showing us who’s hiding what and why.
By the time the man’s identity is revealed we know he’s a serial adulterer. There are at least two women other than his wife who recognise him and we are quickly told that each of them has reason to feel upset by his behaviour.
Initially I found myself intrigued by the story, but as we learned more about our main character - who we only see through the eyes of others - it was hard to muster much sympathy for him. While the women involved did evoke some sympathy in me, they each knew what they were getting into and, as such, I found it hard to mind either way what happened to them at the end.

I just can't seem to get into this one. It's not keeping my interest at all.
This author is very good so I'm sure it's me.
I'm very sorry but it's just not for me.

I gaze at my husband's once handsome face, so still and pale in the hospital bed. The doctors say I should keep talking. He might be able to hear me even after the terrible accident that had left him fighting for his life. But all I have to whisper to my husband is I know what you did.
This story is told from the differing perspectives of Marla, Athena, Sonya and a mystery woman in alternating chapters. Damon is in a medically induced coma after being hit by a car. We find out his relationship with each of the women. The police are struggling to find out who was responsible for the accident. The characters are well developed, and the pace is fast. I was instantly pulled into this book. The story has a dual timeline that's told in the past and present-day format, giving us an insight of what had happen leading up to Damon being hit by the car. There are plenty of twists in this addictive read.
I would like to thank #NetGalley #Bookouture and the author #NicoleTrope for my ARC of #TheTruthAboutTheAccident in exchange for an honest review.

I really enjoyed this book Damon has had quite a few affairs behind his wifes back but the book focuses on 2 of them and his wife so all through the book I didn't have a clue who caused his accident and then the ending wow that twist was good

This is the second book I've read by her and I definitely saw how strong her writing style comes through. It's always interesting for me to see how an author can structure each book to their own unique style while keeping it different.

Thank you NetGalley and Bookouture for an ARC in exchanged for an honest review.
Ugh I really wanted to like this one. There were a few decent twists but a lot of very predictable moments. Nothing ruins a book more to me than a plot hole. There were a few things that just didn’t make sense or plots that didn’t flow. I don’t want to give away any spoilers but you probably can find them easily.
I couldn’t get myself to like any of the characters.
Sorry this wasn’t it for me.

Thank you to #NetGalley, Nicole Trope and #Bookouture for the opportunity to read an advance copy of The Truth About the Accident, to be published 30 Jun 2023. This novel was listed as Women’s Fiction but it had all of the underpinnings of a great psychological thriller, complete with twists and turns and an “OMG finale.” It was told from different perspectives and over a period of time in days. The characters were believable and one had all of the traits of a person you love to hate. 5/5 Stars. #NetGalley. #Bookouture. #NicoleTrope. #TheTruthAbouttheAccident

In this story a man is involved in a hit and run accident. As he lays in a coma his secrets start to come out. He’s not the man people think. I loved the multiple POV and the timeline alternating between before and after the accident. The timeline did not state it was before or after the accident so that added more mystery to the story. I enjoyed this book from the first to the last page.

This book reminded me of Liane Moriarty's books- which I love BTW. So reading this one was really exciting for me. I'm always looking for books like that and I think I found it in this author's writing. If you enjoy domestic suspense novels then this is a must read!

When Damon, a CEO and husband, is hit by a car the cops struggle to figure out who did it. The weather was terrible the night of the accident, and the cameras don't give a clear view. While Marla, Damon's wife, should be surprised when the cops show up at her door, she is prepared for the news. The reader wonders why she isn't more upset. Then, we start to meet Damon's mistresses and we understand why. Told from multiple POV's, with great character development, we get the full picture of Damon's life, and are reminded that sometimes marriages that look perfect, actually have cracks.
This was a fast paced read, with a satisfying ending. 3.5, rounded up to 4 stars for me. Thank you to NetGalley, and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for the honest review.

This one was a quick and easy revenge read with a really unlikeable character.
One morning, Damon is involved in a hit and run. As the story goes along, we get to hear about his life as a CEO, his marriage and all of his secrets. The police try to piece together what happened, but really, they cannot even begin to imagine! Another enjoyable novel by the author.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bookouture for the gifted advance copy.

This book was awesome! 4 different POVs. Lies, affairs, murder, it has it all!
Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this book in exchange for an honest review!

I love when books are written in different POV. I feel like it really keeps me entertained the entire time. The truth about the accident is told in Marla, Athena, and Sonya, and a mystery womans POV. Damon is Marla's husband but is in some way linked to all the women of the story, one day he is hit by a car on a rainy Wednesday with no witnesses, at least no witnesses that are coming forward.... I enjoyed the writing style of this book, but I did start to find the storyline to be predictable towards the middle. All in all, it was still a good book that was well written and did keep me engaged in the plot.

Amazing read! Couldn't put the book down once I started. I felt like I was in a movie and wanted to know what happened and was drawn in from the time I started. Would highly recommend if you like the thriller/mystery type of book with a bit of mistress/cheating going on!

The character development this book was great. I found myself truly interested in some of the side characters as well. I enjoyed the changing POVs too. It can sometimes be confusing to start, but it always helps stay engaged in the story.
The plotline was pretty unique, there were some good twists a little predictable, but still enjoyable. I appreciate the opportunity to receive an advanced reader copy.

DNF- Could not finish this one. I tried to be invested in the story, but I just didn’t feel entertained by the characters of the storyline.

WOW..WOW...WOWWWW! Y'all this book is a rollercoaster read! This wife...The secrets...I Could not get enough of it! Thank you AGAIN Nicole Trope for a 5 star read! Your books never disappoint! I will have to have a shirt with "Nicole Trope is Brilliant" hahaha

The plotline was pretty unique. There were some good twists.. a little predictable, but still enjoyable.

This was a fantastic, well-written story. I felt a little lost at the beginning, with changing points-of-view when I hadn’t figured out who the characters were yet, but that pulled me deeper into the book because I wanted to figure it out. I liked that there were “good” and “bad” aspects of each character, and I felt sympathy and anger towards each of them at various points. The book moved at a good pace, fully developing the story while not belaboring mundane points. I highly recommend this book!

Thanks to #NetGalley and #Bookouture for the read/review of #TheTruthAboutTheAccident by #NicoleTrope. I thought this book was phenomenal. Without giving anything away, I loved the characters, the storyline and the surprise ending.
