Ava Carson is enjoying the perfect family life with husband Mitchell Carson, a new baby of their own, and Mitchell's young son, Jack, until Mitchell's personality changes from Prince Charming to an unpredictable, jealous control freak. Digging into a past Mitchell refuses to discuss, Ava finds more than she bargained for. When Mitchell files for divorce and obtains custody of the children, Ava must act quickly. But challenging Mitchell may endanger her and the lives of her children. VERDICT This powerful debut by a former television anchor is a suspenseful and haunting tale of a marriage spiraling wildly out of control. The story line is particularly unsettling as it mirrors the headlines found in newspapers and court cases everywhere. This title will resonate with readers of contemporary women's fiction and fans of Gina Holmes.
