Lucy Cooper seems to have it all – a smart, attractive PR consultant from a wealthy family, she thinks she has met her perfect match in Donovan, a fitness trainer with a body to die for. After a whirlwind romance, she and Donovan marry but it isn’t long before Lucy realises that her new husband is nothing more than a self-obsessed fitness freak. Worse than that, beneath his tanned veneer there lies an ugly and increasingly violent temper. Marriage to Donovan is turning Lucy into a nervous wreck, eating away at her confidence and putting her career, her health, even her sanity in jeopardy. Lucy knows that she has to make a break before he destroys her – and her loved ones – completely. Hope comes in the form of Fergus Pearson, a Irish/Jamaican motorbike courier and aspiring actor. He’s gentle, laid-back and kind – everything her husband isn’t. They embark on an affair but a freak accident forces Lucy to make a discovery that will turn her whole world upside down…
