A Stranger on the Beach

In Michele Campbell's latest novel, A Stranger on the Beach, this thriller will grip you and take you on a wild ride. It all started when Caroline Stark spotted Aidan Callahan on the beach near her beach house, and when her husband Jason came into the housewarming party with his Russian girlfriend. But things aren't what they seemed when she accused him of cheating on her and he asked her to get a divorce for some strange reason. Shocked and dismayed, she goes to the Red Anchor Bar and seeks Aidan out as the bartender. After a couple of drinks, she teases him when he's fallen hard for her and began a temptous affair. He couldn't get her out of her mind and is smitten with her. He spent prison for involuntary manslaughter and tends the bar in his spare time. His brother is the chief of police. But he wants the beach house on his grandfather's land. But after a one-night stand, she cuts things off with him and whispers to him that he wants Jason dead.  Although he turned it down, things had gotten too far between them and their affairs. He follows her husband and her daughter and reports back to her on what he saw and heard. Before the hurricane, things got dicey and heated when there was a break-in at the house and her husband winds up dead. But after the storms, Aidan's charged with the crime and Caroline goes into hiding. But in the end, things don't add up with a shocking twisted ending you would never believe.

This was a spine-tingling and suspenseful thriller that would leave you at the edge of your seat.  I did care for Caroline in the beginning, but I didn't in the end. She had gotten what she had coming for her. I did feel bad for Aidan who was sucker-punched into this mess when he had fallen for her. I did feel bad for Hannah who was caught in the mess of this dilemma too. I did like New York as the locations and in and around the beach for the gripping scenic settings, even before and after the hurricane. This would keep you in suspense on every single turned page from start to finish and leave you at the edge of your seat with non-stop drama, plenty of mind-blowing action, tons of intrigue, and plenty of suspense to keep you hooked right to the end.
