I didn't mean to get involved with a married man - I had no idea he had a family at home. But by the time I found out about Helen I was head over heels in love with him. I would have done anything for Ralph... that is, until I found out what he was really hiding.
The night it happened, I was standing on his doorstep, waiting for him to let me inside. Helen was at a parent-teacher conference and I was hoping this was the moment Ralph finally decided to end his broken marriage and be with me.
I couldn't have been more wrong.
I sometimes think I never really knew Ralph at all. Because I never thought he'd be capable of doing what he did. It wasn't only dangerous, it was very, very wrong. And I'm not talking about cheating on his wife.
As I said, I came there that night hoping to finally be with the man I love. The very last thing on my mind was killing him.
No marriage is ever what it seems from the outside
. A compulsively unputdownable domestic thriller from a
USA Today
bestselling author.
Perfect for fans of
Big Little Lies
and
The Silent Wife
.
