About this listen

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


She wants him back. She wants you gone.

Luke is The One. After everything she's been through, Georgia knows she deserves someone like him, to make her feel loved. Safe.

The only problem is his ex-girlfriend. Luke says Cadence is having trouble moving on. She texts Luke all the time and leaves aggressive notes on Georgia's car.

Georgia starts to feel afraid. But she decides to confront Cadence ... and 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.

PRAISE FOR NICOLA MORIARTY:

'Nicola Moriarty captivates with her riveting new novel, The Ex, which examines the inescapable ties of past relationships and what happens when old wounds aren't healed. Gripping, dramatic and with twists you won't see coming, this book held me in its spell from the first page. I loved this book.' Sally Hepworth, author of The Family Next Door

'A pacy, gripping thriller, but also full of heart and plenty of laughs for comic relief ... An absorbing, terrifying tale that perfectly captures the zeitgeist.' Sunday Telegraph

'A compelling story of love, betrayal, and revenge, The Ex offers enthralling twists and turns' Book'd Out

'Will have you turning pages in a blur to find out what happens ... [has] Netflix written all over it.' The Age

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.

Good fluff to lean into between heavy reading

I could not stand the narrator's voice which impacted the believability of each of the characters. especially Luke and Cadance.

nothing, I listened to this only because I had purchased the title.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

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.

Good but Predictable
