Finding happiness is the best revenge.
From the outside, it seems thirty-six-year-old Tess Campbell has it all. A happy marriage, a successful career as a novelist, and an exciting cross-country move ahead. Tess has always played by the rules and it seems like life is good.
Except it's not. Life is a bitch. And suddenly so is Tess.
When Tess discovers the truth about her marriage, she decides it's time to live the life she's always wanted, despite what her family and snake of an ex-husband expect of her.
Tess throws caution to the wind and embraces her lifelong dream of exploring the world. Her first stop - scuba diving in Mexico. The sharks she can handle, but the handsome Scottish diving instructor with the flirtatious smile and broad shoulders has Tess tied in knots. With her hard-won independence on the line, Tess must decide what's scarier - learning to love again or letting her past control her future.
