In this "sly, slow-burn thriller," a woman falls in love with a handsome, wealthy man with only one rule—never ask about the past (Booklist).
Caught up in a whirlwind romance that starts in sunny Ibiza and leads to a luxurious English country estate, Poppy barely has time to catch her breath, let alone seriously question if the man of her dreams is too good to be true. Drew is enamored, devoted, and just mysterious enough to be thrilling. What's the harm in letting his past remain private?
Fortunately, Drew never seems to wonder why his young wife has so readily agreed to their unusual pact to live only in the present. Perhaps he assumes, as others do, that she is simply swept up in the intoxication of infatuation and sudden wealth. What's the harm in letting them believe that?
Isolated in Drew's sprawling mansion, Poppy begins to wonder what Drew is hiding. What could be so terrible that it can't be spoken of? What is her Prince Charming capable of? She doesn't want this dream to shatter—because she knows there are sins far more dangerous than the sin of omission . . .
