Blame the booze, her shaky marriage, her troubled son, or a thousand other things, but Jewelann Jordan has one thing on her mind when she attends her class reunion: making sure her old crush Christian Campbell sees exactly what he lost all those years ago. A late night, a hotel room, a rekindled flame that burns even hotter than it did back then—what could go wrong? Everything. The night with Christian isn't the first secret Jewelann has kept from her husband Ken, so one more shouldn't be much harder—except that Christian shows up without warning, seemingly determined to do his best to mess up Jewelann's life in any way he can. Worse than that, he seems to have his sights set on charming her son, Eli, and befriending her husband. Revenge isn't so sweet when it bites you back, but Jewelann is determined to keep Christian from ruining everything she's worked so hard to keep safe, including her son. Fighting to keep it all from spiraling out of control, Jewelann discovers Christian is not the man he claims to be. When darker secrets emerge, even closer to home, Jewelann takes the chance to turn the tables on him. The more Jewelann digs for the truth, the uglier—and the deadlier—it gets.

      At the start of this bizarre domestic thriller from the pseudonymous Hardy (After All I’ve Done), unhappy housewife Jewelann Jordan encounters surgeon and former classmate Christian Campbell, who broke her heart 17 years earlier, at their 25th high school reunion. A tryst in a hotel room during the reunion proves satisfactory for one party but not the other. Back home in Kettering, Ohio, Jewelann tends to her troubled 16-year-old son, Eli, and her controlling husband, Ken, who travels often for his software-troubleshooting job. To her surprise, Christian shows up and announces that Ken has agreed to rent out their carriage house to him. Jewelann, who keeps many secrets from her husband, ranging from a shopping addiction to her unresolved feelings for Christian, worries Ken will discover everything. Meanwhile, Ken’s increasingly odd behavior leads Jewelann to conclude that he’s having an affair. Readers will struggle to like the whiny and shallow Jewelann, though she becomes more sympathetic as she learns some disturbing things about Ken and Christian. The initially slow plot takes a dizzying number of unlikely twists that lead to a rushed if happy ending. This is for those who have a high tolerance for melodrama. Agent: Lynnette Novak, Seymour Agency.
