About the book
Her second marriage would last forever... After 31 year old Kyle Endfield's betrayal of their 2 year marriage vows, 21 year old Lynda had rejected his wealth and power and divorced him immediately. She knew she would never love again, but she had been relieved to escape with some measure of her pride intact. Kyle, however, had never accepted her defection. 3 years later, he exploited her brother's weakness for money and blackmailed Lynda into remarrying him -- this time for keeps. To make matters worse, if Kyle were to become bored with his repossessed wife and return to his former mistress Olivia, Lynda would have no choice but to stay and endure the humiliation.
