[Ria · Rating 5 out of 5]

Bryan Amber is devastated, out of the blue his wife Errin wants a divorce.
He moves out of the family home, relocates to California and promptly falls for Judith, his new boss' Henry Press daughter.
With a little encouragement from Henry he is talked into marrying Judith but there is a hitch, Errin has changed her mind and wants to try again.
What can he do?
Fess up and lose either woman?
Or be an adulterer and bigamist to get what he wants, a prime position at Nova, the family business.
This was a great story, ruthless, devious and a totally absorbing read.
Hated all the characters, not one I liked, all ambitious, selfish and didn't care who they hurt.
