For fans of psychological and domestic suspense about the lies that form relationships comes Briana Cole's first novel with Kensington, a twisty roller coaster that will make you question your expectations about love, lust, and monogamy. Kimera Davis finds comfort in dating married men. It's easier that way. Her needs are taken care of and she doesn't have to give more of herself than she wants to. No messy feelings involved. But when the man she's seeing poses an unexpected question, Kimera quickly realizes that she's not the only woman pulled in by his charm. Their new arrangement doesn't require much from Kimera, but she soon discovers that someone else is pulling the strings. She's not looking for complications, yet she can't help feeling that there's something devious at play. And the truth is more complicated than she could ever imagine . . .

The divorce was just the beginning. . . Kimera Davis had a plan to jump start her life and land on easy street. But a disastrous marriage has her making amends and picking up the pieces. It’s a struggle to balance her new responsibilities and her ex, who keeps pressuring her for another chance. All of this has her family scandalized, and with her minister father’s health suffering, trying to do the right thing is pulling Kimera and the only man she’s ever really loved further and further apart . . . But as Kimera’s bad luck piles up, she senses there’s something more than faulty decisions at play. Someone’s playing a desperate, dangerous game with her life . . . and she’ll have to win if she wants to survive.

Getting your life back can be killer . . . Kimera Davis thought she was finally free from marrying-for-money—and living way too many lies. Until her obsessed ex-husband ignited the ultimate dark hoax, a spectacularly malicious deception that’s left her family, and her best friend, Adria, reeling. Now Kimera and her young son are prisoners at a remote estate, under the thumb of her ex’s powerful father. And she has only one slender chance of escape. Suddenly Kimera is getting dangerously close to an unlikely ally, but even she can't be sure if she's playing him, if what they have is real . . . or if he's mastering her game. And there's no guarantee that her calculations and wild-card moves will earn her and her son's freedom—or cost more than her survival is worth . . .
