Isolation and heartbreak make dangerous bedfellows in this story of betrayal and revenge. A Florida hurricane has nothing on Tessa Taylor when she discovers her husband is having an affair. Trapped at home by the storm, Tessa is left with nothing to do but plot against her husband’s mistress, Lindsey, whom she lures to the house. As the hurricane rages around them, these women go head-to-head for the man they love and it isn’t tears they’re shedding… Tessa will have you asking, what would you do if you were trapped with your husband’s mistress with no one around to hear her—or you--scream?
Tessa was prepared for the hurricane. Lindsey was the storm she didn’t see coming.
When Tessa Taylor unlocked her husband Ethan’s iPad to discover nude photos from a twenty-six-year-old bombshell named Lindsey, her seemingly perfect life came to a screeching halt.
With a hurricane barreling toward Florida and Ethan stuck on a business trip, Tessa finds herself imprisoned in her own home with a choice to make: Does she ride out the storm until she can confront Ethan in person, or does she take matters into her own hands?
Increasingly restless and desperate for revenge, Tessa resolves to act. And when she lures Lindsey over a few hours later, there’s no turning back.
What ensues is a battle of wills between two well-matched opponents, blinded by love for the same man but driven by demons of their own. Like storm-ravaged Florida, neither woman will be the same when the skies clear.
He’s mine. Both wife and mistress would stake their lives on it. But only one of them can be right.

Kristen Rush is a survivor, so when her fiancé is kidnapped in the desert and she’s given the choice to run or to fight, there’s no question which she’ll choose: a battle of wits and wills against a sociopath hell bent on creating Kristen’s personal brand of torture. If she ever wants to see her fiancé again, she will have to face her greatest fears, fight her demons and push herself to extremes. It’s a heart-stopping, hair-raising, edge of your seat ride with a surprise Kristen only imagined in her darkest nightmares. He’s proven he’s willing to kill, but Kristen has proven a more formidable opponent than even a killer could imagine.
The New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author whose “skill at capturing emotion in lyrical passages sets her head and shoulders above her peers” (Publishers Weekly) dives head first into the world of psychological thrillers with “one twisted, horrifying ride [that] kept me up the night after I finished it” (Kim Harrison).
When Kristine Rush’s fiancé is abducted from a desolate rest stop en route from Las Vegas to Lake Arrowhead, California, she is forced to choose: return home unharmed or plunge forward into the searing Mojave desert to find him…where a murderer lies in wait.
One road. One woman. One killer.
Speeding against the clock, and uncertain if danger lies ahead or behind, Kristine blazes an epic path through the gaudy flash of roadside casinos, abandoned highway stops, and a landscape rife with unimaginable horrors. Desperate to save her doomed husband-to-be, she must summon long forgotten resources to go head-to-head against an unpredictable killer. And she’d better hurry. Because she only has twenty-four hours…to make one hell of a trip.
