After finishing Dear Vicky, I dove straight into Work Husband by Octavia Grant. I needed to know if this level of unhinged storytelling was her signature style—and let me just say, I was not disappointed. Once again, I was fully immersed in a fast-paced, jaw-dropping tale that left me wanting more.
Let’s start with the premise: They took the concept of "work spouses" to a whole new level—while having actual spouses at home. The twists and turns in this book were insane! And the moment I found out that he, too, had a whole family? My jaw was on the floor.
Then there’s Crystal. Was she "throwed off" because of her work husband’s deceit, or were her personal struggles to blame? Having been in the middle of a divorce due to infidelity, only to find out her "work husband" wasn’t faithful either, it’s no wonder she unraveled. The emotional depth Grant brings to her characters makes you question everything and keeps you invested until the very last page.
Work Husband is the perfect book for anyone stuck in a reading slump. Its fast pace and chaotic drama grab your attention immediately, while the emotional complexity keeps you hooked. Octavia Grant masterfully blends wild, unpredictable storytelling with relatable themes like betrayal, heartbreak, and resilience.
If you’re looking for a book that will make you gasp, shake your head in disbelief, and stay up far too late reading, Work Husband is a must-read. It’s the kind of book that lingers in your mind long after you’ve finished, and it’s solidified Octavia Grant as an author I’ll continue to follow.
