I wish I could give this book NO STARS.First of all, the title and description of this book may as well belong to another book -- this one doesn't even resemble what the book is actually about.Second -- don't waste your time. I am someone who can't quit reading a book  once I've started it--I kept reading it hoping it would get better, but it just got more annoying.Spoiler alert!!This is really about a woman who is caught in an abusive marriage and her attempt to escape. The development of the abuse in her marriage is believable, but after so much indecision it left me wondering: can this woman be for real? I found it hard to believe that a woman who was scared for her life (and had $85,000 to run away with) would bother to stick around to get her purse back and to see if her criminal husband was caught! Really? You don't think she'd just take the money and buy herself a new driver's license? No! She had to have her purse back even though it contained nothing of value and put her life at risk when she could have taken the opportunity to run.I know the author tried for suspense, but did it at the expense of realism. I was equally frustrated to learn at the end that this was only the beginning of a series. Well, I won't be buying the next one--even if it was free. I think the author already owes me those wasted hours back ;o)
