What did I just read!!!! I did not want this book to end but I wanted to get to the end at the same time. You never know what you're capable of until your back is against the wall.
Heather, a massage therapist, marries Tom and he's widowed with a son and daughter. The kids are still grieving the loss of their mother and of course they hate Heather.
The family tags along with Tom to a conference in Australia. Tom takes the family to Dutch Island for a quick look around to see koalas. That was their first mistake.
I had the feeling Heather was young and out of her element but once she had to protect herself and those two kids, she turned into Xena Princess Warrior!
This book read like an action movie. Read this book!!
