Challenge Corner discussion

Abigail Baskin never thought she’d fall in love with a millionaire. Then she met Bruce Lamb. He’s a good guy, stable, level-headed, kind—a refreshing twist from her previous relationships.

But right before the wedding, Abigail has a drunken one-night stand on her bachelorette weekend. She puts the incident—and the sexy guy who wouldn’t give her his real name—out of her mind, and now believes she wants to be with Bruce for the rest of her life.

Then the mysterious stranger suddenly appears—and Abigail’s future life and happiness are turned upside down. He insists that their passionate night was the beginning of something much, much more. Something special. Something real—and he’s tracked her down to prove it.

Does she tell Bruce and ruin their idyllic honeymoon—and possibly their marriage? Or should she handle this psychopathic stalker on her own? To make the situation worse, strange things begin to happen. She sees a terrified woman in the night shadows, and no one at the resort seems to believe anything is amiss… including her perfect new husband

Anticipating this one to be a 4-5 star can't wait!

finally getting started on this one!

through Chapter 9

rough start(view spoiler)[ nothing is really grabbing me at the moment. I didn't care about going through her sexual partners or their histories and I didn't find Scottie to be terribly irresistible so I'm still not sure why she slept with him

her husband seems wonderful but intense about the whole loyalty thing. Makes me wonder how well they know each other.

but her previous bouts with revenge were a bit...ominious... (hide spoiler)]

Through 16 chapters

(view spoiler)[ ugh, his name is Eric huh...and maybe killed his wife. creepy
but I'm not getting a good vibe from Bruce.
they hadn't been "together" since her bachelorette party (remember he had them stay at their apartments). he wasn't interested right after the wedding and their first encounter since seemed horrible and uncomfortable.

I think he knows. Or something is up because Bruce is acting super weird (or so it seems...) (hide spoiler)]

through 23 chapters

(view spoiler)[ hmmm...I guess...Chip tested her?
I wish she'd looked through the book in his luggage more. both of these men sound awful
and let's be honest, so does Eric

all these men in her life suck

but she seemed swept up by Bruce but like she didn't really know him.

and poor Jill. Her night sounded gruesome.
and that cage? F that... (hide spoiler)]

and I'm done

(view spoiler)[ and I really liked it. Once Eric turned out to be in on it, I was ready for her to kick some butt.
and I'm so glad she did. What Alec did to Jill was just awful and gruesome. I'm glad she got the chance to kill Bruce (and maybe their "detective" too). I'm glad she shot Eric too! lol I loved how violent she got to get and how she paddled off that damn island
You go girl! I was rooting her on the whole time.
I love that she kept thinking "what movie am I in?" because I agree! It played out like a movie! (hide spoiler)]

Through 10 chapters
(view spoiler)[ So this is pretty spooky...I kind of feel like she's getting gaslighted by Bruce and Scottie (hide spoiler)]

I agree! Watch out!!

Through 16 chapters
(view spoiler)[
Something is up with Bruce for sure. I really think he and the Scottie guy are in it together... (hide spoiler)]

Through 22 chapters
(view spoiler)[
I knew it!! Bruce is bad, he hired Scott/Eric to get Abigail to sleep with him. He had to report back.

Now they are both on the island, and now she's in trouble!!! (hide spoiler)]

Finished!
(view spoiler)[I am so glad she got away, and I knew that Bruce was up to no good, and something was fishy with Scottie, but for the whole island to be in on it, and then for the other woman to get killed, that was whacked! (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

YAY! I'm so glad you liked it (view spoiler)[ I know right?! when Scottie was in on it too, I was shocked! her getting away was awesome though! (hide spoiler)]

I wanted to read this one for this BR but I still have about another 5 week wait :(

I think you're going to love it!

Oh my gosh, I had to wait FOREVER for this book but finally got it and read it!

Trisha, regarding your Ch 9 post I totally agree. I couldn't for the life of me figure out (view spoiler)[WHY on earth she cheated with that guy at that time...Scottie was too quick and I felt something was up right away! (hide spoiler)]

Yes! (view spoiler)[I felt right away like Bruce had paid him to see if she'd cheat. What I didn't know is what the consequences would be! (hide spoiler)]

Hahaha! No kidding! She turned out to be (view spoiler)[ a badass and I know we were all rooting for her! She didn't need any man to help her out! I felt awful for Jill! What a horrible way to die getting her head bashed in. Horrible, terrible person Alec was! (hide spoiler)]

Just read all of your comments too, Jenny...looks like all 3 of us picked up on (view spoiler)[all the men being in on it. What a terrible island and a bunch of filthy rich guys coming up with such a thing...AWFUL! (hide spoiler)]

One thing I loved about this book was the suspense! I thought the author did a really good job on that!
