You betrayed me / Lisa Jackson.

Jackson, Lisa, (author.).

Summary:

In a twisting, unpredictable new novel of suspense by #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson, an heir to the Cahill fortune discovers just how dangerous, and duplicitous, family can be ... The Cahills of San Francisco are famous for two things: their vast wealth, and the scandals that surround them. Murder, greed, deadly ambition ... some people will do anything to get, and keep, the Cahills' kind of money. Not that James Cahill wants any of it. He's tried to make his own way, less interested in a future inheritance than in his construction company'and in enjoying the many women taken in by the easy charms of a handsome, soon-to-be-rich bad boy. Perhaps there've been too many women. Waking up in a small hospital in Washington State, bandaged and bruised, James barely recognizes the gorgeous blonde who comes to visit. Through the haze of pain and medication, he recalls that she is Sophia, the woman he's been cheating with. Gradually memories return'his girlfriend, Megan, had found out about Sophia. Now Megan is missing, her sister, Rebecca, is hounding him'and police and reporters are asking questions too. James insists he has no idea what happened. Yet he can't escape a feeling of dread ... Meanwhile, in a locked room, a woman waits, trapped, petrified, and desperate. She thought she knew who to trust. But the betrayal you can't imagine'or can't remember'may be the most terrifying weapon of all ...

    If James Cahill can't recall what happened to him, this memory lapse could kill him. All James knows is that he has somehow landed in the hospital after a bad blow to his head and a very troubling case of amnesia. The police believe that he was involved in a fight in his home with a woman. Coincidentally, James' most recent girlfriend, Megan Travers, is currently missing after being seen by witnesses in the vicinity of his home. Could Megan be the one who gave James the lump on his head? Or was it one of the many other women with whom James has shared his romantic favors? The propulsively paced plot of the third chilling installment in Jackson's series about the wealthy, scandal-prone Cahill family, following If She Only Knew (2016) and Almost Dead (2017) has a definite Lifetime Movie Channel vibe, but Jackson effectively juices things up with plenty of sexy suspense, some soap opera embellishments, and a generous amount of high-octane thrills.

    A complex web of romantic entanglements forms the core of Jackson's exhilarating third Cahills romantic suspense novel (after Almost Dead). Megan Travers has a vicious fight with her boyfriend, serial dater James Cahill, after which Megan goes missing and James wakes in a hospital room badly bruised and beaten, with no recollection of how he got there or the woman, Sophia Russo, who shows up insisting that she's his girlfriend. James is also the main person of interest in Megan's disappearance, but his memory loss holds up the investigation. Not buying the amnesia angle, Megan's sister, Rebecca, another of James's ex-lovers, arrives in Riggs Crossing, Wash., determined to find out what really happened. The memory of James's passion for Rebecca turns out to be the only thing that can break through James's foggy mind. The romance takes a back seat to the suspense as Jackson pulls the entire cast of kooky, nefarious townsfolk into the mystery of Megan's disappearance, and the constant twists will keep the readers hooked. This is a nonstop thrill ride. Agent: Robin Rue, Writers House. (Oct.)
