Love Lies Beneath

nThe #1 New York Times bestselling author of Collateral is at her best in this outstanding novel written in gorgeous prose...a sex-filled masterpiece of mystery and romance (Library Journal) about a woman caught in a love affair that could be her salvation--or her undoing. nOnce a widow, twice divorced, Tara is a woman with a past she prefers to keep hidden. She's gorgeous, affluent, and content living alone in her flawless San Francisco mansion. n nThat is, until she meets Cavin Lattimore--the charming surgeon who sweeps her off her feet following a ski accident in Lake Tahoe. But as her recovery progresses and her love life flourishes, Tara notices some suspicious incidents--an unusual van parked outside her home, a break-in, threatening text messages, and distressing emails. She can't help but notice the cracks in Cavin's perfect persona, including the suppressed rage his conniving teenage son elicits. n nHousebound and on crutches, Tara depends on Cavin--perhaps to a dangerous degree--as she juggles difficult relationships with her envious sister and best friend, her irritable brother-in-law, and her estranged mother. However perfect Tara's life may have appeared before, new events are starting to expose what lies beneath. n nWriting for the first time in prose, Ellen Hopkins unveils a brand new form that's fresh, smoldering and emblematic of her celebrated poetic voice. Injected with a signature dose of suspense, sex, and drama, Love Lies Beneath delivers right up to its shocking and unexpected conclusion.n
