A thrilling and emotionally gripping novel of love, marriage, deception and... murder.

"An unforgettable thrill-ride that had me hooked from the first page. Secrets, lies, betrayal and passion." 5 stars

One lie is enough to question all truths.

It's one thing to realize the man you married isn't who you believe him to be. It's another thing entirely to prove it. After all, who's going to take the word of an unstable woman who's never fully recovered from the
heartbreak of losing her child?

The only question now is how far he'll go to protect his secrets...

From the #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLING AUTHOR of the award-winning Beyond the Grave paranormal romance series.

As I lie here in my front hallway, in the place where it all began, I wonder what would have happened if I'd never opened the door that afternoon?

Would she have gone somewhere else? Would she have swept off in another direction, an alternative reality where our lives would never have crossed paths?

And now I'm lying here, blood pooling beneath my body, deep crimson smears on cold white tiles, remembering every sordid moment in vivid detail.

There's a shadow standing over me.

"I want you to die here, slowly and alone." Her voice is cold, emotionless. "And I want you to use the time to think about what you did. And when you take your last breath, I want you to realize it's all your fault. All of it!"

I drift in and out of consciousness and wonder if I had my chance to do it over again, if I had the choice, would I choose not to open the door that day?

Even after everything, I know that I would.

I'd go through it all again, and then some, if it meant the chance to be with Zach just one more time...

An unforgettable romantic thriller that's impossible to put down.
