The Replacement Wife (New Hope Series)

From the bestselling author of The Social Affair comes a new riveting, powerful psychological thriller which offers a savage look into a utopian cultish society where beauty and perfection are valued at all costs. Statistically speaking, fifty percent of marriages end in divorce. What are the odds for murder? Widower Tom Anderson is a savant with more affinity for numbers than people. Problem is, one is a lonely number. Thankfully, he solved for X by finding the perfect woman. It wasn’t easy. Tom is very specific. He has to be. Having checked ‘find trophy wife’ off his list, life was moving along swimmingly. Until that perfect woman let it slip—she has a past. One she kept hidden, almost perfectly. Sure, she lied—she fudged the numbers. Most women do. Now, Tom has buyers’ remorse and according to cult rules only two options: get rid of her—or single-handedly erase her past. She’s a liar. But she does keep house well. And she makes a mean lasagna. Decisions, decisions. Razor-sharp and utterly gripping, this electrifying story explores the lengths one will go in the pursuit of perfection, little white lies that can turn lethal, and the danger lurking behind the smiles of those we trust most.
