To save their marriage, Sloane must forgive her husband's affair. Instead, she tries a more tempting option–settling the score. But will it prove to be a deadly mistake?
ER doctor Sloane Marks is shattered when she learns her husband Ethan slept with his partner at Seattle Homicide. She considers leaving him and joining The One, having gone to college with the popular dating app's billionaire founder, Brody Carr. But at forty-two, Sloane feels she has no choice but to forgive Ethan if she wants a chance at creating the family she never had.
Months later, Sloane bumps into Brody, who's recently returned to Seattle. In due time, Ethan worries she's cheating. His suspicions are confirmed when he learns the rich app founder took Sloane on a freediving excursion in the San Juan Islands. Soon after, Brody's famous wife dies in an accident. Ethan becomes the lead investigator in her death, which he suspects wasn't at accident at all.
Caught between a distrusting husband and a powerful billionaire who protects his secrets at all costs, Sloane is in a fight for her life. And the only way out is to take matters into her own hands.
Sloane Marks is an ER physician, and her husband, Ethan, is a homicide detective. She thought they were happy until Ethan cheated with his homicide partner. Sloane isn’t sure she can forgive him, yet she finds herself wanting to be a mother. Ethan has always wanted a family, but Sloane wasn’t ready.
Sloane believes that if Ethan knew how she felt, they might move forward. In college, her chemistry lab partner was Brody Carr, now a millionaire and the well-known founder of the app The One. When she bumps into Brody at the store while buying ice cream, she learns he recently separated from his wife. Their chance meeting lifts her spirits. She knows Brody finds her attractive, but can she have an affair? Soon, Sloane joins Brody for a weekend trip to the San Juan Islands, certain it will drive Ethan crazy.
A week after returning, Brody’s wife drowns. The police are investigating Brody, and Sloane has so much to lose. What has she gotten herself into?
The One was truly addictive. I couldn’t stop listening. Sloane and Ethan were somewhat unlikable characters, but I needed to know where the story was headed and how it would play out. I wasn’t disappointed.
Cliffhanger: No
