Product Description

Product Description

He was to be her future. But what of his past...? When Holly Barrett meets Jack Dane, she falls rapidly and passionately in love for the first time in her life. Within six weeks they are married and Jack opens up a whole new world for Holly and her young daughter Katy, offering them a way out of the small-town Massachusetts existence in which they have become trapped. But Holly knows very little about the enigmatic Englishman who has come into their lives so unexpectedly. Parts of his life story seem destined to remain forever shrouded in shadow yet, happier than she has ever been, Holly sees only interference and jealousy when her beloved grandfather, Henry, and best friend, Anna, tentatively start to raise questions about Jack's past However, as the truth starts to emerge, it soon becomes frighteningly possible that everything that Holly has ever believed in could be a terrible lie. And that rather than marrying the man who will save her and Katy from their safe but small world, Holly may have brought a monster into all their lives...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent read, 8 Aug 2009
By Avid reader (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Having heard from many friends about this book, I bought it and took it on holiday with me. Once I started reading it on the plane, I couldn't put it down. Throughout the book you find yourself growing an emotional interest in each character, not just the leads. It is very quick to read and plays out in your mind like a movie hence there was no need for me to check out the inflight movies on my flight. Overall an excellent novel that combines both traditional romance with "edge of your seat" thriller.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 16 Aug 2009
This is a fantastic read. I finished it in a single sitting. The characters gripped me from the very beginning and the twist and turns of the plot made it impossible to put down. I think this book will have a very wide appeal, combining as it does a taut thriller with romantic interest and intrigue. I am still thinking about the compelling issues the book and its characters and context raise and I can't wait for everyone to get back from holiday so that we can discuss it at our book club.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping read..., 14 Aug 2009
By B Uppon (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
An excellent read and I would highly recommend it. It is quick paced and exciting. I enjoyed it because the characters and their dilemmas kept me gripped to the page. I would not want to ruin the ending but I certainly am still thinking about it...
