He imagined their voices weaving the house into a delicate net that could hold the night as it fell all around them.”“In a flash of leg, Allie crawled over his body. He imagined pulling the towel from her head, and combing the tangles from her hair. He imagined sitting down on the floor, his back to a corner, with Mia between his legs. No more than he noticed the bites and the scratches on his shoulders and back that Allie tried to sooth like a mother cat when it was over.'“The funny thing was, he didn’t picture hopping into bed with her. He spread his hands in her hair and pinned her to the bed. He rubbed his check against the L of her neck. His body reacted by itself, thrusting so hard Allie's head knocked against the headboard. But when he came into her, he ceased thinking. All the while thinking of unrelated matters, baseball, world news, duty rosters, to keep himself from going over the edge. He kissed his way up the inside of her thighs. He felt his balls tighten and he rolled to his side pushing Allie onto her back. There was a pattern to their love making. She moved her hand up and down, alternately stroking and cupping him. Sucking in his breath when her fingers slipped through the opening to brush his skin. Cam took Allie’s hand and settled it over his boxer shorts. He wondered how someone so comfortable and familiar could make him as excited as someone mysterious and unknown. He thought of Allie’s body spread in front of him like a banquet and he grew harder. Sh*t, F**K, and so forth.“He felt himself stirring, blood rushing heavy into his center. There are also a few curse words in this book. There are sexual interactions so descriptive you will believe you are watching a movie. If you do not allow your children to read adult advisory content, do not let them read this. I have left a couple of examples from chapter 11 at the bottom as to why I feel the way I do about this book. With the prosecuting attorney have such a strong case that the Jury will side with her and leave Jamie to be alone in jail for the rest of his life?The way she tells this story, you cannot put the book down. Will the Jury side with him and let him go. Will she take him back? Will she make him leave? Will she drain his account so dry, he has no were to go?Jamie killed his wife because she asked him to. However, that is not the end of the story. Allie’s husband Cam get caught doing something a husband should never do! She sells all of his stuff and walks away from him. If you were an artist you could draw out every seen and know exactly every detail down to the wrinkles in the bedspread. The detail she gives leaves a picture in your head with no missing pieces. You have to know why she sold all his stuff and you have to know why his wife wanted to die.

Adults only! Very descriptive and you can’t put it down.She starts the book with two events that leave you hooked and wondering how they started and how they are going to end.
