3.5 stars rounded up It's hard watching your ex after so much time apart. You remember the hurt, the tears and the accusations, but you try not to show it, You watch as he looks down into the stroller, at the beautiful blond-haired blue-eyed baby kicking his little legs in the sunshine. You see his face change. You know what he's thinking. The next day he calls. His voice shaking. He wants the truth, is it his child. This is a difficult book to review as I don't want to give away any spoilers. This is a slow paced psychological thriller. The story is set around the first outbreak of Covid. I also found it a bit predictable but that didn't take away anything from my enjoyment of the book. Naomi and Sam's relationship had ended. Their relationship has been toxic. The story is told from Naomi, Sam and Miranda's perspectives.There isn't really any surprises in this story.I also felt the ending was a bit rushed. I took half a star off for it;s slow pace. I would like to thank #Netgalley #Bookouture and the author #S.E.Lynes for my ARC of #TheEx in exchange for an honest review.
