From the authors of the Maddie Castle series: She came to hide from her past. Now she must fight to protect her future.
Having escaped her abusive husband, Gwen Kane found safety at Rhiannon’s Ranch, a secret refuge for survivors of domestic violence. Now she works at a local bakery and lives a quiet life among friends who share her scars. She’s almost convinced herself the worst is over.
But when her best friend’s abuser storms into their sanctuary, Gwen erupts in a flash of panic and rage―with deadly consequences. To protect the ranch, she must cover up the evidence of what she’s done. But burying one body doesn’t erase the past. And what’s more, a reclusive billionaire with deadly secrets of his own witnessed everything.
As Gwen’s fragile peace unravels, she’s drawn into a romance with the one man who could either save or destroy her. With vengeance and justice blurred beyond recognition, she must decide whether she’s still the woman that runs―or the one who fights back.
Perfect for fans of The Girl on the Train and Big Little Lies, Victim or Villain is an emotionally charged psychological thriller featuring a heroine readers won’t soon forget.
