A young mother desperate to protect her unborn child...
Drawn to the charismatic Texan Charles Watson, a man with a dark allure that conceals a sinister truth, Louise Clifford finds herself entangled in a love affair that defies reason. After six weeks of bliss, he abandons her.
Hurt and angry, she searches for him, locating him in Austin. Pregnant with his child, she confronts him and learns he's answering to a different name. As their relationship takes a dark turn, Louise realizes she's become his possession.
Trapped and hopeless, she must find a way to protect herself and her unborn child.
Fans of Behind Closed Doors, The Girl on the Train, and Before I Go to Sleep will be captivated by this gripping tale of deception, control, and a mother's fierce determination.
