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.
OMG that was intense. I finished MINE in one sitting… I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough.
I love Courtney Cole and this book kept me on the edge of my seat in suspense, heart racing and wondering how it would all turn out.
Tessa has just realized the imaginable… her beloved husband and father to her three beautiful children has been cheating on her for months with Lindsay, a twenty-something beautiful woman that gives his ego the much-needed boost it needs. There is a category 4 hurricane headed her way and what better than to lure the cheater to her home to get the answers she is seeking.
But at what cost?
How this all went down was INSANE and total 360 to Tessa’s normal character. But who could blame her?! My emotions ran the gamut… I was livid, sad, pissed, hopeful… hopeful that Ethan had SOME DAMN GOOD reason for his indiscretions other than being selfish.
Unfortunately marriage is hard… navigating life with children and work and being busy and tired is something that happens in all marriages. It’s how you weather the storm and deal with those minor blips that will show your true character, your true heart and how deserving you are of your spouse. If I were in Tessa’s place, I would have probably done the same because when you have children and love someone with all of your heart and soul, you want to keep what’s yours… you want that happily ever after, through better and worse.
I would have loved an epilogue… the end felt unfinished and rushed. I am a true romantic and if Ethan had shown his sorrow and some kind of redeeming quality, I would have wanted them to end up together, working on their marriage and love for themselves and their children. So I feel slightly cheated that we got nothing… In my heart, I am hoping and imagining the best outcome for them because these situations DO happen, they aren’t ideal but I always want love to win. <3
