At 29, Julie Barenson is too young to give up on love. Four years after her husband's tragic death, she is finally ready to risk giving her heart to someone again. But to whom? Should it be Richard Franklin, who is handsome and sophisticated and treats her like a queen, or Mike Harris, who is Julie's best friend in the world, though not as debonair? Now, with a decision that should bring her more happiness than she's had in years, Julie's life is about to become a living nightmare, as one man's jealousy spins into a deadly obsession.

*Sigh..* I hated to see this book come to an end. I was glued to it, especially towards the end, but I would put it down and walk away for a couple of minutes, to draw it out more -- I had to find out how it ended but didn't want to get there. I like this author's style of writing, (I guess that is what you would call it); it's kinda slow but not boring, it just flows into you, you don't have to think about it much, you just absorb it. I don't know how else to explain it. I really liked/enjoyed this book. Giving it a high rating.

Offered this book up on Book Relay and it was picked up pretty quickly. Shipping out to lovemylife. Hope you like it.

RELEASE NOTES:

After reading "Three Weeks With My Brother", I'm looking forward to reading this one. Thanks, three104. It arrived this morning.

I really hate to say I didn't care for it, after you liked it so much, three104, but it jumped around too much for my taste. I like a book where I don't have to figure out who is where doing what all the time. So I think I'll pass it on. Maybe I'll get back to it some other time.

This book will be going to the Ukraine in an M-Bag.

Received today for inclusion in the Ukraine m-bag. Thanks very much for your contribution.

(Despite the arrow on the map, the book will be sent to a friend in Donetsk to distribute.)

I am embarrassed to find this book and realize that I never updated the status years ago. I had it in an m-bag ready to mail to my friend in the Peace Corps in Ukraine to distribute to her class of English students. And then she very abruptly and unexpectedly came back to the US after a cancer diagnosis, and I had no other contact to mail books to there. And I just found it in a container with other books that were in limbo waiting to be sent out.
