Mitch Wilder vows to steal his wife back, knowing that his quest is futile.
​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​ Claire knows about his other women; the reason they are separated.

​​​​​​​He needs to control his rage against his stepbrother, Tom Fleming, for taking Claire away from him. After all, they must work together, running their shipping company. But when Tom is kidnapped and tortured, Mitch realizes that he loves his brother.

​​​​​​​After Claire Lester-Wilder catches her husband with another woman, she chases after Tom to get back at him. She thinks that Tom will be easy to manipulate. But she soon finds that she has chosen the wrong man, again.

​​​​​​Tom Fleming hopes that Claire will go back to Mitch. Not because he doesn't love her, but because of who he is. After he's sent through hell, Tom finally summons the courage to tell Claire that he is gay. There is only one person he trusts to help him heal and fight his demons, the man he is in love with.

Testimonials
​​​​​​​
“The author takes on a wild and unpredictable journey with incredible twists and turns of events. Deborah Tadema weaves her story of rivalry and deception and she tells her tale with utmost skillfulness as a writer.”
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
After his father’s will stipulates that in order to inherit his father’s shipping company, Mitch must hire his estranged stepbrother, Tom, with one woman caught between the two. Both brothers fight a battle of wits and emotions to settle a long-held dispute. Unsettled results complicate unresolved relationships to the last page. In this family drama, there definitely is no honor between brothers, especially where a certain woman is concerned.

I am a sucker for any book with a sea creature or lake monster and locked on Bessie: The Monster in Lake Erie as soon as I saw it. Deborah Tadema does a terrific job evoking a sixties-era Ontario lakeside town, telling a summertime story about family, regret, the environment, and hidden malice. Bessie, the titular monster with the not-so-scary name, is arguably a little too human in outlook but creates a solid center for people coming to terms with the past, and trying to do the right thing. Recommended with iced tea on the deck.
