Description

I had no idea my husband had a son. Now he’s living with us. I don’t know if I’m safe in my own home.

I won the lottery when I married Bennett. I’m twenty-eight and you’d never guess that he’s more than a decade older than me. He’s the perfect guy — rich, hard-working and gorgeous. 

We’re getting ready to celebrate our anniversary when there’s a knock at the door. There’s a guy standing on our doorstep. He can’t be any older than eighteen but he has the same eyes that I look into every day. He says he’s Bennett’s son, TJ. He needs a place to stay. 

I had no idea Bennett had a child. Let alone one who is only ten years younger than me. But he’s family and I have to welcome him into our home. 

Then the next day, the body of a teenage girl is found fully clothed, floating face-down in our community pool. One of the girls from our neighborhood. She’s been murdered. And TJ is the prime suspect

He says he has nothing to do with it and Bennett defends him. But there’s something about his story I don’t trust. I’m questioning everything — my husband. My stepson. Even myself. 

Please note this book was previously published as My Husband’s Son. 

This absolutely addictive psychological thriller packed full of twists is perfect for fans of Daniel Hurst, Freida McFadden, Valerie Keogh and Cole Baxter.
