The Best Wife (ePub)

Mirror, mirror on the wall …

Jealousy doesn't exist in Darby Forester's vocabulary. Until Caroline, an equally stunning woman, crashes Darby's perfect fortieth birthday party and reduces her seemingly perfect husband into a horny adolescent in front of the well-wishers.

THINGS ARE ABOUT TO GET WORSE.

Shortly after the last guest leaves, Caroline calls Wyatt. Someone is trying to break into her house-where she's alone and terrified.

Wyatt rides off to the rescue. Darby feels the first brush of fear. Her father was a serial adulterer, abusing her and her sickly mother. Infidelity is, for Darby, a game-changer. One Wyatt has always willingly agreed to.

A call from the ER changes everything.

Wyatt is fighting for his life after a brutal beating. Suspense mounts at the hospital when Darby finds Caroline rode in the ambulance with Wyatt. She is passing herself off as his sister.

The game of cat and mouse escalates.

Caroline baits Darby with innuendoes of Wyatt's infidelity. Shortly after his hospital admission, he dies. Darby has no idea what Caroline wants. Or who she is. Or why Wyatt was attacked. A mysterious text sends her rushing to meet a stranger claiming to have the answers.

Body count mounts.

Before Darby gets answers that make sense, the stranger is dead. A day later, so is Caroline.

Arrogance. Spite. Payback. Emotionally exhausted and disillusioned, Darby hires a PI. The secrets he ferrets out point to a murder in her past. Can she dodge the payback?
