A psychological thriller readers call "unputdownable" and "dangerously addictive."
Two men. One woman. A love that could destroy them all.
Judith thought she'd found her happily-ever-after with Justin-the hero cop who saved her life. But love this fierce never comes without consequences.
Justin's anger turns cold and punishing, unable to forgive her tangled past with Nicolas-the dangerously obsessive man who refuses to let her go. When Nicolas resurfaces, spiraling into addiction and fixation, Judith slips into a secret online affair too powerful to resist.
Justin discovers the betrayal and ends everything with brutal finality.
But Nicolas isn't finished.
He'll risk his sanity, his freedom, and even Judith's safety to claim the woman he believes is his soulmate.
A luxury holiday in Mexico reunites Judith and Nicolas for one scorching afternoon, igniting a triangle of desire, betrayal, and destruction. And just when Judith thinks she's hit rock bottom, her sister Lizzy makes her move-launching a twisted plan to steal Justin for herself.
As loyalties fracture and passions combust, Judith must face the truth: In this love triangle, someone will be left aching... and someone will be left destroyed.
Dark, seductive, and utterly addictive, A Lover to Live For is the unforgettable second book in The Somewhere Aching Series. Perfect for fans of Pepper Winters, J.T. Geissinger, and Skye Warren, this story dives deep into obsession, heartbreak, and the dangerous line between devotion and destruction.
