Wife on the Wire: A Mother's Sacrifice

From the back cover

My first life ended with a bomb, a cruel joke played by my own husband, Andrew.

Then, a blink, and I was back, the bitter taste of betrayal fresh on my tongue.

This time, it wasn't me on the bomb, but my mother-in-law, trapped on a pressure plate in a derelict industrial lot.

Andrew, an EOD expert, was our only hope, but I knew his true colors.

In my past life, he let me die while he was out with his high school sweetheart, Sabrina.

This time, he scoffed, called it a prank, and refused to come, humiliating his own mother in front of the entire town.

He even accused me of trying to ruin his "perfect day" with Sabrina, leaving his frantic mother abandoned and weeping.

The world watched as my mother-in-law' s strength gave out, her legs trembling on the brink of disaster.

How could he be so monstrously cruel, so utterly devoid of humanity, to abandon his own mother to a a gruesome death, all for a date?

Knowing there was no other choice, and vowing to expose his depravity to everyone, I took a steadying breath.

I placed my foot beside hers, ready to trade places and face what Andrew refused to save.
