I thought that this movie was kinda exciting, not quite the acidic mouthful another person shot down the movie with disdain. I do not generally review TV movies, but I liked this one.

In the opening minutes, attractive brunette Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (as Cathy) leaves her car and enters a house. Very quickly, we learn there is a dead woman inside. Also quickly, the police lead Ms. Wood out of the house. "I did it," she confesses, "I killed her." The opening credits end… Two weeks earlier, in a small Vermont town, we meet a much happier Wood. A newlywed, she is moving into a nice new home, with young teenage son Jacob Horsley (as Billy). He is from a previous, unhappy marriage. Wood's uber-sexy groom Shawn Roberts (as Riley Coulter) is out of town on a business trip. A sales representative, according to his business card, Mr. Roberts is not often home... Wood befriends blonde neighbor Zoie Palmer (as Tora Weeks), who brings her a house-warming pie. Yum. They go shopping. Roberts surprises Wood by appearing, unannounced, in a local jewelry shop. He claims to be buying Wood a surprise gift. Wood continues to find life with Roberts suspiciously strange. While her husband provides logical explanations, we're pretty sure something isn't quite right. We already know there is going to be an arrest. For another thing, the movie is titled "Her Husband's Betrayal". He also looks more like a professional model than whatever he's supposed to be doing for as a "sales representative." Roberts doesn't seem so at first, but he turns out to be perfectly cast... The original plot for this TV movie, by Russ Chasney, is quite good. Everything hearkens back to a past event, cleverly, and there are some nice touches. However, the story falls apart around one of Wood's stronger scenes, with a helpful truck driver (Gene Mack). Otherwise, she dons a baseball cap, wears stunning make-up, and runs around the country like she's "Batgirl". Wood seems too young and beautiful for her role. Sympathetic officer Mark Bendavid (as Dan Gresham) should have been made stronger, perhaps appearing prominently in the opening (a cheat). We don't know where "Billy" is for much of the time and it's surprising to see Wood risk his life by befriending a homeless stranger. **** Her Husband's Betrayal (2013-08-02) Ron Oliver ~ Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, Shawn Roberts, Marc Bendavid, Zoie Palmer

A little irritating is how I felt when watching this woman's journey to get back her boy from her new hubby. He has many identities and threatens to kill her boy. He asks her to take the blame for a woman he murdered. She escapes from the cops after confessing and with a little help from her sweet looking cop and tries to solve things on her own. When the explanation comes it does not make sense. How would all these messy murders mesh with the insurance scam? A little below the Lifetime thriller standard.
