Kennedy Baker: The Same Man, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In search of a fresh start, Kate Roberts fled California after a failed relationship. She believes she's finally found what she's looking for in Ryan Langford-a man who seems to admire her fire, her fierce independence, and her easygoing, upbeat energy. But beneath his charm lies a dark web of secrets and control. Before long, Ryan has dismantled the very parts of Kate she had once cherished, leaving her unsure of the woman she has become. When Ryan is suddenly arrested and sent to prison, it's the escape Kate didn't know she was waiting for.

After his release, Ryan begins searching for his next conquest. Enter Aria Cassidy-quiet, disciplined, and devoted to her dream of studying ballet in Paris. To her, Ryan appears to be everything she's ever wanted: loving, hardworking, the man she imagines raising children with. But his mask soon slips. Slowly and methodically, Ryan erodes her confidence, dimming her spark until she barely recognizes herself. It takes years and every ounce of courage, for Aria to walk away.

Years later, a chance encounter brings Kate and Aria together. What begins as a casual conversation turns into a moment of shocking revelation: they were both married to the same man. The discovery ignites more than disbelief-it forges a powerful connection rooted in validation and shared survival. As they unravel the manipulation, isolation, and pain they endured, Kate and Aria begin reclaiming their voices-and their lives.

Through laughter, grief, and late-night confessions, their friendship becomes a lifeline and proof that healing doesn't happen alone.

The Same Man is a gripping novel about surviving abuse, rediscovering self-worth, and the profound transformation that comes when women stand beside each other in the aftermath. This isn't a love story-at least, not the one you're expecting.
