Description

In a deliciously twisty tale of seduction, betrayal, and obsession from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shanora Williams, a scorned wife isn't the only one looking for answers--at any price . . . Perfect for fans of Tarryn Fisher, Lisa Jewell, and Alyssa Cole!

Adira Smith-Cortez knows how to turn around a troubled past. Now she's a self-made multi-millionaire who takes exquisite care of herself and her only true love: her husband, Gabriel. Adira has it all--except the answer to one tormenting question: why is attentive, affectionate Gabriel cheating on her--with not just one, but two women. There's sexy Jocelyn, a club owner. And then there's Julianna, a celebrity makeup artist he's even crazier about. In a tricky twist, vengeful Jocelyn offers Adira the perfect plan to get her straying spouse back...

It sounds simple: Adira will befriend Julianna through a fake identity, play on her and Gabriel's vulnerabilities and cause them to split up permanently. Determined to reclaim her happiness, Adira won't--can't--stop to think what could possibly go wrong...

Until too many of Gabriel's lies start adding up to a disquieting truth. Until Julianna discovers who Adira really is--and Jocelyn pushes Adira to ever-more-unthinkable extremes. With her world collapsing and shattering memories tearing her apart, how far will Adira's obsession take her--and how much of herself is she willing to lose in the process...
