Publisher's Summary

Girl meets boy. They fall in love. There's just one problem...

Georgia and Luke are in love. They've only been dating for a few months, but Georgia is pretty sure he's the one. They get along so well; he's romantic and kind and funny. There's just one problem: Luke's ex-girlfriend, Cadence, is having trouble moving on. She texts him all the time, won't give Luke back some of his things, and Georgia is convinced Cadence has followed them on more than one occasion. It's starting to get creepy.

Georgia and Luke soon move in together, but the shadow of Cadence looms large. Georgia is conflicted—on the one hand, she is the happiest she has been in a very long time, but this stalker-ex thing is getting old real quick. She needs Cadence to calm down and stop interfering with their lives. Georgia decides to go to Cadence's apartment and confront her, woman to woman ... that's when things get interesting.

From the bestselling author of The Fifth Letter comes a twisty, pacy, gripping new novel that explores the baggage we carry from our past relationships and asks how well can you ever really know someone.

Good fluff to lean into between heavy reading

This was a great story when you need a easy read.
The story was predictable and doesn’t extend your vocabulary… but when you need some fluff that doesn’t make you think then this is the book you need. Great performance by Simone Gescheit.

The Ex is great and very entertaining

A good story overall all, albeit a little predictive. The narration was great and easy to listen to.

Good but Predictable

The first 2 parts of this book dragged on, which would have been fine if the storyline hadn’t been so predictable. The last part of the book was faster paced, less predictable and much more enjoyable. It is worth a read.

Disappointed

The story was ok, predictable by the review comments. Although it would be good to have a positive vibe on relationships.
I found the narrator’s voice for the 2 female characters annoyingly childlike and pathetic.

Frustratingly predictable

Although not a bad read - I found the story to be frustratingly predictable from the start.

Slow start be great ending

I thought this was going to be a dragged out story about how an ex girlfriend reaped terror on a new couples life. But it actually ended with an unexpected twist with a very well thought out map of WTF just happened

A great read!

I really enjoyed this - it was recommended by a family member, and I didn't know what to expect, but I found it really exciting from start to finish - highly recommend! Well written and well read.

Engaging Australian thriller

Enjoyed this very much ... not a deep involved novel it merely requires we sit back listen and be glad we arent any of the characters!!
