I Will Never Leave You

All they want is a baby—and they’ll do anything to have one.

Banking heiress Trish and her husband, James, seem to have it all, from a lavish lifestyle to a historic mansion in the nation’s capital. All that’s missing from their privileged life is a baby.

So when Trish sees Anne Elise for the first time, it’s no surprise that she falls deeply in love. There’s just one problem: Trish isn’t the mother. The baby belongs to Laurel, James’s young mistress. And James and Laurel want the wife out of the picture.

When Trish becomes perversely obsessed with making Laurel’s baby her own, the lovers come up with a wicked plan to end James’s marriage that quickly goes awry. As the love triangle becomes more and more dangerous, how far is each of them willing to go to get what they want?


Genre: Mystery

"When a novel starts the way this one does, you just know things are going to get worse. In this fast-paced, chilling novel, S. M. Thayer invokes F. Scott Fitzgerald’s characters from The Great Gatsby as both a nod to the age-old compulsion to choose money over everything, and a cautionary tale to its ruinous powers. I Will Never Leave You is a dark and addictive read." - Kaira Rouda

"This sly and sinister novel explores just how wrong a love triangle can go. Chilling." - Peter Swanson
