READ THE BLURB

Question: A seductress steals your husband, rips apart your family and shatters your dreams.

You:

a) Wish them luck, and walk away with your head held high (because that’s what society expects you to do)?

b) Quietly seethe, but accept that there is just nothing you can do about it (because it easier for everyone if you do nothing)?

c) Dig up dirt on the bitch (because someone like this would undoubtedly have dirt), use it to sabotage their relationship, then sit back with a glass of Pinot Grigio and watch them burn?

Answer: C. Oh, totally C.

.......................

Meet Scarlett Smyth. She’s drop-dead gorgeous, has a rocking body and has an above average IQ. She brags that she can ensnare any husband or taken male, and …she often does. She also is ambitious and has a penchant for anything expensive.

When the shrewd and ambitious temptress lays eyes on Bradley Murdoch, she believes she has found her dream man and a ticket to the high life she’s entitled to. There are just two problems:

1) Bradley is married to Rival. Happily at that.

2) They have children. Adorable little girls.

Do those facts deter Scarlett in any way? No, not at all. She is determined to steal Bradley, smoothly replace Rival in his life and show him how to really live life.

In a calculating move, the seductress (she is so good at seduction, she is even penning a book on it) befriends the quiet and unassuming Rival and worms her way into Bradley’s life.
There’s more: To expedite things, Scarlett the mistress, engineers a way to wipe Rival out of the picture - sends the clueless wife on a “vacation”.

But Scarlett may have underestimated her opponent. When Rival realizes the extent of the betrayal, she decides, even though she lacks Scarlett’s genius IQ, not to turn the other cheek. In fact, she is determined to win back her husband, believing that he is a good man who is simply mistaking lust for love. She believes that someone like Scarlett has to have skeletons in her cupboards and she begins to snoop around, anything she can use against the other woman, anything that can help her exact revenge.

What Rival doesn’t realize is: no one takes on Scarlett - no one dares. The betrayed wife and the other woman collide. The result is another gripping suspense thriller from best selling author Eve Rabi.

If you've enjoyed Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, Girl on a Train by Paula Hawkins, books by Marian Keyes and Liane Moriarty, you will enjoy this 'suspenseful, romantic and entertaining tale of love, lust and revenge.'

READ AN EXCERPT

Mistress: Just because he’s taken, doesn’t mean I’m going to pass on him. No friggin’ way! When I set my sights on a man, I do whatever I can to get him. This is one method I employ to get the taken male. Take note now. I orchestrate an encounter with the wife or girlfriend, cultivate a friendship with her, then surreptitiously extract vital information about my target from her. Women love to talk about their soul mates, bore you with details, overshare even. Within a matter of hours, I know everything I need to know about my target.

To loosen her tongue, I engineer a visit to her home and take along a muscle relaxant – a bottle of tequila. The tongue is a muscle, remember? Be generous with your shots, keep it flowing and it will pay off. Let them talk, listen without interruptions, then cunningly flatter and charm them until they lower their guard. When they eventually pass out from the tequila, feel free to snoop around their home, their purses and even their mobile phone to gather more information about your mark. Remember never to leave any signs of your snooping as word can spread.

To appear innocuous, it is wise to fake a boyfriend or a love interest. I do this to prevent the wife or girlfriend from seeing me as a threat and thwarting my plans. My added measure is a ton of photos of my phony boyfriend (borrowed from the internet) on my phone and on my fake Facebook account, which I readily flash at them.
