About this listen

Perfect for fans of Kiersten Modglin’s The Arrangement, The Widow on Dwyer Court is a sexy psychological thriller that will leave you breathless.

Thirty-six-year-old stay-at-home soccer mom Kate Burke is happily married to Matt Parsons, although their marriage looks very different behind closed doors. Kate is no longer interested in having sex with her husband. So, while they still love each other madly, they make an arrangement: Matt can have one-night stands with other women on work trips, but when he returns home, he has to tell Kate about them—every juicy detail.

Because Kate has a secret life writing erotic romance novels, and Matt’s adulterous affairs are her bread and butter.

The family equilibrium is upset, however, when Annie Meyers, an eccentric young widow, moves to town with her daughter. At first Kate is smitten with this wild, witty woman, who gives her a much-needed break from the other picture-perfect suburban moms, although she’s not sure how much of her secret life she’s willing to share with her new friend. But it turns out Annie has secrets too—big ones that could destroy all their lives.

What the...?

I have no idea how to review this as I've never read anything quite like it.
It's about sex.. but it's not super explicit but be warned it's kinky . That my opinion.
Just like the blurb says , wife writes books and ( in my opinion) enjoys hearing about hubby's extramarital exploits... in detail because she can't write her erotic books without his input. So in that regard i guess it is explicit. But to me the notion that any woman could act like this unless they are have a kink, well i can't shake it. To be honest i didn't think i was a prude but this made me uncomfortable. So there is that . if you aren't open minded about cheating it can be upsetting.
The rest of the book is about a strange friendship between the MC and her female neighbor, who is a little hippy dippy and very open minded. I won't say how those two parts of the book converge but this is a book about sex. It mentions kids and friendship but it's still mostly sex, talk about sex, thinking about sex, writing about sex.
For me i like romance with sex in a book there is no romance. This is not an erotic book in my opinion.
The husband is just gross. Anyway, it's different and some will like it. Missed the mark for me. I need more emotion in my reads. Sex is fine but not vulgarity.

RE: She is Woman….

First, these are two of my favorite narrators. Second, wow, just wow. This story brought up a variety of emotions, for a variety of reasons. This one is a domestic thriller that includes love, fear, kink, passion, deceit, smut, and let’s be real—narcissism and sociopathy. And to be clear, I devoured it b/c of the writing style, unique plots, characters that are easy to hate and love at different times, and storyline.

Trigger Warnings: narcissistic traits, mind games/control, infidelity, asexuality

D rating only bc tons of SEXXX wow

This storyline had such potential but the soft & semi hard (no pun intended) scenes were too often. It was half the story! Shouldn’t be rated a mystery anymore than it should be under the category of erotica/cheesy romance novel. I couldn’t even finish it. (Ahhh, these are too easy) seriously, left it with 2 hours left to read. It was just so cheesy BUT I actually REALLY LIKED the characters, when they were clothed! I wanted a suspenseful book & this wasn’t it.
