Joy Fielding

Good Intentions

Doubleday / 1988

She knew she was in trouble the minute she saw him.

Lynn Schuster didn’t expect the phone call from Marc Cameron, the other woman's spouse. And she never expected to feel a strong attraction to him when they met and he offered her the perfect way to get even with her cheating husband. Savvy divorce lawyer Renee Bower warned Lynn to be careful. But Renee had a troubled marriage of her own; chilling suspicions about her stepdaughter’s hidden agenda and her handsome psychiatrist husband's after-hours consultations were chipping away at her cool exterior. And now, as their lives unravel in counterpoint during this hot Florida summer, Lynn and Renee are learning more than they ever wanted to know about love and betrayal.
