Ratings and reviews

James and Jessica are celebrating their second chance at happiness .... but not everyone is happy for them. James' ex is bitter, vengeful, and threatening to ruin the relationship between James and Jessica. Jessica's ex-husband is not happy, but he hangs in there, trying to be civil, because of their teenage son, which presents another problem as well. And then there is the couple themselves .... are they really in love ... really happy with their new partner? When James starts working with a beautiful woman, Jessica begins to think maybe her marriage isn't that perfect after all. This domestic thriller is filled with anger, betrayal, suspension, angst. guilt. I expected more character development, instead of a bunch of adults who all need some kind of therapy. It started out slow, but the pace did pick up. There were some interesting twists and turns, but none were totally unexpected. Many thanks to the author / Amazon Publishing / Netgalley for the digital copy of this family drama. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
