Around The Bend - Paperback

About this item

by Britney King (Author)

Jessica survived the crash. Now the man hired to put her life back together is getting dangerously close to the secret someone may be willing to kill to keep buried.

Jessica Clemens has everything she's supposed to want: the house on the hill, the husband, the children, the money, the white picket fence.

Then a car accident nearly kills her.

Months later, Jessica is back home, back on her feet, and telling everyone she's fine.

Jessica is very convincing.

Not everyone believes her.

Enter Myles Ingram.

Former Navy SEAL. Caretaker. Professional problem solver.

Myles has been hired to get Jessica back on track, and he has a system for doing it.

Rules. Goals. Contracts.

Jessica signs them.

Following them is another matter.

Myles doesn't simply listen to what Jessica says. He watches what she does. Which makes him increasingly difficult to fool-and increasingly difficult for Jessica to stay away from.

That's inconvenient.

Because Jessica is hiding something.

And the man she's beginning to want is also the one man whose job is to notice it.

Then there's the accident.

Jessica has a story about what happened that night, too.

It's a very good one.

Around the Bend is a dark domestic thriller about control, desire, an unreliable narrator, and a dangerously intimate caretaker relationship where the truth is the one thing nobody can afford to get too close to.

Britney King writes psychological, domestic, and romantic thrillers set in suburbia. She is currently writing three series and several standalone novels.

Thus she finds herself tangled in a messy, dangerous, forbidden love story and face-to-face with a madman hell-bent on revenge. The series has been compared to Fatal Attraction, Single White Female, and Basic Instinct. The Water Trilogy (psychological/domestic/romantic thriller) follows the shady love story of an unconventional married couple- he's an assassin-she kills for fun. It has been compared to a crazier version of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Also, the hit series Dexter. Around The Bend, is a heart-pounding standalone (romantic suspense/domestic/psychological thriller), which traces the journey of a well-to-do suburban housewife, and her life as it unravels, thanks to the secrets she keeps. If she were the only one with things she wanted to keep hidden, then maybe it wouldn't have turned out so bad. But she wasn't. The With You series (romantic suspense/contemporary romance) is a coming of age, friends to lovers, second chance (plus a few) love story about unlikely friends who travel the world; trying to find themselves, together and apart.
