About this listen

There are three things you need to know about Fiona Archer...I would tell you what they are, but then I'd have to kill you.

But I can tell you that Fiona's husband - the always irrepressible and often cantankerous Greg Archer - is desperately in love with his wife. He aches for her when they are apart, and is insatiable when they are together. Yet as the years pass, Greg has begun to suspect that Fiona is a ninja. A ninja mom. A ninja wife. A ninja friend. After 14 years of marriage, Greg is trying not to panic. Because Fiona's talent for blending in is starting to resemble fading away.

However, when unexpected events mean Fiona must take center stage to keep her family safe, her response stuns everyone - Greg most of all. It seems like Greg's wish has come true.

Except...not.

When all is said and done, can Greg handle this new version of his wife? Will his irrepressible cantankerousness push her away? Or can the couple find a way forward without either being forced to step back into the shadows?

I LOVE GREG

I’m gonna be honest, with Fiona’s health history I kinda thought the book was gonna be a bit predictable but when the ‘twist’ happened I was actually driving and listening to this audiobook and I screamed “WHAT?!” when the line was read. I Absolutely loved this book and I probably laughed out loud every time a comment came from Greg. I desperately hope Penny writes another Fiona & Greg book because if I don’t get my source of entertainment from her books, I’ll probably end up getting it from the streets 😉 (please listen to the book to understand that reference)

Best Penny Reid Book to date

Rom Com meets Parenthood meets James Bond...amazing fusion with surprising emotional realness. Compelling listening. Recommend.

uugh

Of all these books this was the most irritating..The storyline would have been good but the males voice was annoying and the male character was a chauvinist pig so he was just annoying throughout the book, and the supposed ninja was a doormat for him until the end. Frustrating.

A++

After 15 years of marriage I felt this story right down the bones.
Sometimes being married to him is magical hearts and rainbows, and sometimes it's a total chore.
The love you give and get makes it worth it.

Greg and Fiona

Greg is an absent husband and father as his work is FFO.
He still thinks he should be able to dictate how his children are raised, despite knowing little about his childrens interests.
When he is home he is a good, funny dad, but that is only a few days with weeks of absence in between.
Fiona is an exCIA agent. She is stressed from raising the children, while taking Greg’s wishes into account.
I did not like Greg. He was selfish, arrogant and self-righteous.

Worst of her series

I like all the books in this series- except this one. Greg Archer is just an arrogant tosser! It’s so out of character compared to the others. His behaviour is so unacceptable. Really disappointed.

Not likeable characters

Apart from a great narrator, the book bombed. Both main characters were highly dislikable. There was the ex CIA mother who is codependent on her selfish, arrogant, rude husband who was also a massive bully towards her. Then there was her husband who was just the most awful of human beings. He was misogynistic against his wife, but at the same time wanted his 5 year old daughter to be a tomboy and refused to allow her to play with dolls or do ballet unless her 8 year old brother did as well.

Even though this was a free audiobook, I somehow still feel robbed somehow.

I don’t recommend this book. It was boring, depressing and a waste of time.
