Publisher's summary

While on vacation in India, Trina Holmgard meets and marries Sam, a poor but charming man. She returns home to New York to arrange his entry into the US and leaves him with her heirloom locket as a pledge of her commitment.

But as time passes, she begins to question his motives. Does he really love her or is it life in America that he wants? Deciding she has been deceived, Trina cuts off all contact and marries another man.

Driven by rage when he realizes his dreams have been shattered, Sam dedicates his life to getting revenge. But, how far will he go?

One thing is for certain, the world will never be the same again...

Wow!

Wow! I listen to a book or two a week and this one is amazing! Narrator is amazing as well! I have hundreds of books in my library and have only rated 2. It’s more than worth it!

Very Interesting

It makes you wonder and think back on your own past. Are they're people or persons that I have so greatly wronged that would seek revenge on me?

Story took a left turn

This started out as an interesting story about a self centered and ambitious young woman, but took a shocking plot turn into a real event that was unnerving and painfully trivializing. I was horrified.

not a fan

Definitely not my favorite. First half is nothing but a romance book and the second half is a history lesson of 9/11. If you enjoy either of those then you will like this book. The writing was good and the character development was excellent. Maybe this would be more of a historical romance. Not my cup of tea.

Meh.....

The storyline was OK, but the author used a very significant event in American history, and put a fictional spin on it which I found inappropriate and almost an insult to the victims of that day. That’s just my opinion, the rest of the story was OK.

What a story!

Wow, I didn't see that coming! Incredible, and utterly shocking, developments, from the first page on. Great narration as well.

Pathetic

If you like a pathetic, whiny, needy main character then the first half is the book for you. If you like insulting revisionist history about 9/11, the second half of this book is the one for you.. Annoying narration too. I did appreciate that the ending wasn’t wrapped up in a pretty red bow “everything’s going to be OK.” That was the one redeeming quality but did not make up for the rest of this awful book

Altered history of 9/11

I found this book to be very disturbing in that the author is taking the liberty of altering the history of one of the hi- jackers of 9/11.
The performance by the narrator was excellent but I was extremely unsettled by the book and most definitely would not recommend.
