Description
As seen on the TODAY show as “a perfect beach read.”
Three lifelong friends plus a dangerous, sexy new stranger in town add up to a scorching summer of manipulation, obsession, and murder, from the acclaimed author of The Hunting Wives.

                 A woman in the forest thinks she’s going to die.
                          I know he’s coming back for me.
 
Jen Hansen, Kittie Spears, and Cynthia Nichols have been friends since childhood. They are now approaching forty and their lives have changed, but their insular East Texas town has not. They stay sane by drinking wine in the afternoons, dishing about other women in the neighborhood, and bonding over the heartache of their own encroaching middle age and raising ungrateful teens.
 
Then Will Harding comes to town, moving into one of the neighborhood’s grandest homes. Mysterious and charming, he seems like the answer to each woman’s prayers. He’s a source of fascination for Jen, Kittie, and Cynthia, but none of them are ready for the way Will disrupts their lives.
 
As Will grows closer with each of the women, their fascination twists into obsession, threatening their friendships and their families. When he abruptly pulls away, each woman scrambles to discover the source of his affection. But what they’ll uncover is far more sinister and deadly than any of them could have ever imagined.

        Jen Hansen has many admirable qualities—she’s a devoted mother and dedicated yogi—but astute judge of character doesn’t appear to be among them, as the freshly divorced homemaker discovers, at her peril, in this breezy romantic thriller from Cobb (The Hunting Wives). After an acrimonious split from her philandering husband, the financially strapped 39-year-old and her teenage son relocate from Austin to her East Texas hometown, where she’s gobsmacked to meet a golden-haired Greek god of a man moving into the neighborhood. Not only does this charming if somewhat mysterious newcomer, Will Harding, seem taken with Jen but, as she breathlessly reports to the two childhood BFFs with whom she has reconnected, Kittie Spears and Cynthia Nichols, he’s single. As emerges from Jen’s, Kittie’s, and Cynthia’s alternating accounts, unbeknownst to one another, all three become dangerously besotted with Will. Though suspenseful hairpin twists lead to a smashing if far-fetched finale, the numerous mutual betrayals of Jen by Kittie and Cynthia—both of whom pretend they are trying to advance their single friend’s chances with Will while secretly pursuing him themselves—leave a somewhat bitter aftertaste. Those looking for a beach-ready escape, though, will be satisfied. Agent, Victoria Sanders, Victoria Sanders & Assoc.
