She wants him back. She wants you gone.
Luke is The One. After everything she's been through, Georgia knows she deserves someone like him, to make her feel loved. Safe.
The only problem is his ex-girlfriend. Luke says Cadence is having trouble moving on. She texts Luke all the time and leaves aggressive notes on Georgia's car.
Georgia starts to feel afraid. But she decides to confront Cadence ... and that's when things get interesting.
The Ex is a
suspense filled story of love and revenge.
Georgia
is finally getting her life back on track. She has a nursing job that she loves
and is looking forward to a date she has arranged through a dating app. When
her date stands her up she is about to head home when she is harassed by two
men that have had a little too much to drink. Luke comes to her aid and moves
the men along. Georgia is enchanted. He is not only good looking, he is
charming and attentive. They start to date and Luke explains that his
ex-girlfriend is in denial, she will not let him go. Georgia starts to get
threatening texts and notes left on her car. She feels like she is being
followed.
Georgia
had finally found the perfect guy and she wasn’t going to let a clingy, psycho
ex spoil it for her.
If
you like suspense, if you like books about weird-ass stalkers, this book is for
you!
I
did think I knew where this story was going but I never guessed just how crazy
and out of control it would become.
Moriarty
includes themes of mental illness, self harm, depression, suicide and
vulnerability.
There
is also a heart-felt side story of Georgia’s job as a nurse and her attachment
to one elderly patient.
Highly
recommended for thriller fans!
