Description
The Sunday Times Number One bestselling author of Both Of You and Just Between Us returns with another propulsive thriller that will have you racing to the finish! Emma has worked hard for the success she deserves.
CEO, smart, wealthy, grounded, she is finally safe, on solid ground.
When she meets Matthew a kind, handsome widower full of admiration for everything she’s achieved, he seems like an unexpected gift.
The icing on the cake. Emma’s friends, Heidi and Gina, are initially delighted, but as the relationship develops at speed, they worry that Emma is behaving out of character.
She’s a rich woman, she could be exploited. Emma isn’t concerned about the difference in their incomes, but she has just one niggle of doubt about her new relationship.
If Becky hadn’t died, Matthew wouldn’t be with her now.
Sometimes Emma wonders if she is second best. The more she thinks about Matthew’s first wife, the more obsessed she becomes with a woman she can never know. Living in the shadow of Matthew’s first love, Emma becomes consumed with jealousy.
Distrust and suspicion grow all around. And as she begins to lose her grip on her once-ordered life, events take a darker, dangerous turn. Emma doesn’t know who she can trust. Her husband? Her friends? Or even herself…?
