Rate this book
After an affair wrecks their marriage, Dan and Miranda Kelly attempt to escape with their young daughter to the remote lake town of Pinewood, Kansas. It’s a new start, a chance to heal and begin a new chapter of their lives. More importantly, it’s an opportunity to forget Abby, the woman who nearly destroyed their family.

Unfortunately, Dan and Miranda soon discover that past mistakes cannot be avoided so easily. Shortly after beginning their new life in Pinewood, Dan begins to receive harassing messages from Abby, warning him that she will not be easily forgotten. What begins as harassment quickly turns to deadly obsession and violence.

As Abby’s acts of terror escalate, Dan and Miranda begin to learn the depths of her derangement and the lengths a person will go for the one they love, even if it includes murder. Filled to the brim with twists, THE FRESH START tells the story of a deadly lover’s triangle, where everyone has their secrets and no one is who they seem.

So well written. Believable dialogue and characters. Plot a bit far fetched but believable. Quite graphic and dark but very suspenseful. I really enjoyed it and difficult to put down. One of my favorite recent reads!

If you like to be at the edge of your seat. Just when you think you have everything figured out, another twist is waiting around the corner. This novel is very much a page turner and well written. If you liked the movie Fatal Attraction, this is a book for you. I enjoyed all of the twists and turns of this novel. I hope you enjoy it too.
