A year ago Officer Alex Juran and
his wife Tess had a good foundation for a happy life
together. They had love, a good marriage and a baby on the
way. In the space of a moment everything was lost when Tess
miscarried and divorce seemed to be their only option. Two
days before the divorce is set to become final, Alex is
almost killed in the line of duty. Tess cancels the divorce
and offers to help Alex while he recuperates from his
injuries. Their problems multiply when Alex discovers that
he cannot remember who shot him and it seems that the killer
has decided to come after Tess as well. When Alex learns
that Tess cancelled the divorce proceedings he becomes
determined not only to protect his wife, but to win her
back.
Obsession was completely refreshing to me.
Alex and Tess seem on the brink of losing the greatest
happiness that either has ever known. Tess has a booming
business and seems to have finally moved on with her life
when she is reminded that things can always get worse. Alex
is almost killed and she realizes how much she still loves
him. Her life is put on hold until he can get better and
they move in together while he recuperates. His lack of
memory from the incident makes it difficult to know who is
now stalking Tess. The shooter is revealed in the beginning
and throughout the story it seems to reinforce that it is
the same person. I found myself scared for both of them, but
I never saw the twist coming at the end of the book.
Obsession is definitely a must-read. |
