Blurb

My husband tried to get rid of me so he could inherit my fortune.

He’s about to find out that dead wives make the most ruthless enemies.

Seven months pregnant, I return to my mountain cabin and catch my husband in bed with my sister. Listening in the shadows, I hear their real plan. To wait for our baby to be born so he can legally claim my inheritance in the divorce.

Fully intending to cast them out of my home, I confront them. But then, a massive wildfire sweeps up the mountain. In the chaos, my husband sees a terrifying opportunity. He barricades the cabin door from the outside, leaves me to burn, and drives off with my sister.

But I don’t die.

I’m rescued from the flames by Holt, my rugged, off-grid neighbor. He takes me into his remote cabin and promises to keep me safe.

Going to the police is a gamble. My husband is a manipulative liar who will use my own money to buy his innocence. He already died to get rid of me and my daughter once. I can’t take any chances.

I choose to stay dead.

Hidden away in Holt’s sanctuary, I trade my heartbreak for cold-blooded strategy. I let my husband think he won. While he publicly mourns me, I quietly orchestrate a snare that will strip him of his freedom, his money, and his reputation.

He’s planning on hosting a lavish memorial fundraiser to celebrate his stolen wealth. He has no idea his dead wife will be walking through the front doors.

A gripping tale about absolute betrayal, second chances, and a devoted mother’s rebirth from the ashes of her marriage.
