(This is another one I got to read at the beta stage, and I recommend it. Ms. Monson asked for opinions on a chapter in the middle, and I was hooked. When she asked for beta readers for the whole book, I volunteered.)
It's women's fiction, a love story, romance, inductive mystery, thriller, tale of stalking, tragedy, tale from an unreliable witness, ...
Potent mix.
Recapping the blurb:
Deb finds herself facing mid-life crisis, bored, questioning her own marriage, and tempted by a forbidden relationship, as two friends face much more difficult crises.
Her old friend Betty deals with old wounds from a love lost long ago, wounds which are reopened in a life-threatening manner.
Her new friend Mariah comes to grip with tragic loss when her husband suffers a disabling injury at the worst possible time, and then faces an even greater loss.
Betty and Mariah have hard choices forced on them, but are able to find a choice for a hopeful future.
Deb helps them both by just being there for them. But who will help Deb when she gives in to temptation?
Her help comes from a source she did not expect, although both she and the reader have a few hints along the way.
Dark in places, this is a heartwarming novel with a twist of an ending that reminds the reader that life can still be good.
