The Second Wife - Sheryl Browne

After escaping an abusive marriage, the last thing Nicole expects is to meet the man of her dreams, enjoying a whirlwind romance and a 2nd marriage.  But all is not sunshine and roses; Richard’s got baggage of his own: previous wife committed suicide and his daughter, Olivia, seems more than happy to drive a wedge between the newlyweds.

Nicole’s closest and only remaining friend, Rebecca, is in France and gets bits and pieces of the story from Nicole via texts and emails and letters.  Rebecca is beyond shocked when she learns that Nicole has committed suicide.
Rebecca comes to England to attend Nicole’s funeral, wanting to understand how her friend could have become so despondent.  Before she realizes it, she finds that she is also falling for Richard, but even romance can’t keep her from digging a little deeper into the circumstances surrounding her best friend’s death.

This novel is a psychological thriller full of twists and turns and even when you think you’ve figured it all out, there’s still a little more.
