Desire can have dire
consequences
Two
years ago, David Madden made a mistake that almost cost him his marriage. His
wife, Alison, gave him another chance, but she has not forgotten, nor has she forgiven.
She is irresistible
Then
David meets the alluring Nina at a theatre in London. When he loses his phone
in the dark, she helps him find it, and by giving her his number he unwittingly
invites her into his life.
What
David initially views as an innocent flirt turns into a dangerous game of
deception. His increasingly suspicious wife thinks something is up, and each
lie he tells pushes them further apart.
She is insatiable
Nina
pursues David relentlessly, following him to New York where she gives him an
ultimatum: sleep with her, just one time,
and then she’ll get out of his life forever; or she’ll ruin everything he holds
dear.
She is unstoppable
Of
course, once won’t be enough for Nina, and what David hoped would be the end is
merely the beginning.
A
modern-day Fatal Attraction, Just One Time is a steamy psychological thriller that will have you hooked
from the first page and holding your breath until its shocking conclusion.
Review
David is married to Alison and two years ago he did the
worst thing and cheated on her, Alison forgave him but has not forgotten and
the last two years life has been hell for David who feels he’s constantly
walking on eggshells trying not to upset Alison. One night he meets Nina an
incredibly attractive young woman who he can’t help but flirt with, after all
flirting is harmless right? Wrong, even though David gives Nina a false name
she won’t leave him alone, following him everywhere and driving him nuts she
says she won’t give up until she gets one night with David and then she’ll be
gone or will she?
This is a very intense read which drops the reader straight
among the tense atmosphere between David and Alison which doesn’t let up until
the end of the story. The intensity heightens when Nina joins the story and you
will probably have that feeling of dread in your stomach while the plotline
reaches its peak. For me this happened in New York as after that I felt the
plotline fell apart a little and wasn’t quite as believable and gripping for
me.
The characters in this book are not the likeable kind. David
is selfish, arrogant and does exactly what he wants and then wants forgiveness
and reassurance when things don’t go exactly his way. Alison was hurt by David
but she’s still bitter after two years and does everything to make him feel
inferior, perhaps giving us an understanding as to why he wants comfort
elsewhere. I just found Nina obsessive and insecure and would have like more
understanding of why so was so psychotic.
I found this an okay read but didn’t feel it had the ending
to match the beginning. This is an intense read full of sexually explicit
scenes and language to match but for me was more of a plotline. I will still
look out for whatever the mysterious K.S. Hunter writes next.
Thank you Rachel’s Random Resources for inviting me on this
