Publisher's summary

The terrible secrets of a marriage, the love that can turn to desperation, the refuge and heartbreak of being a parent, the fragile threads that cradle a family. Three Hours Late is the second heart-wrenching novel by author Nicole Trope.

Once, so very long ago, she watched him like this when he came to pick her up from a date. Her stomach fluttered and burned with infatuation and desire. She would watch him walk up the path and think, 'This must be love.' But that was so very long ago.

Now Liz is wary and afraid. She has made a terrible mistake, and it cannot be undone. Alex believes that today will be the day she comes back to him. Today will be the day his wife and young son finally come home. Today they will be a family again. But Liz knows that some things can never be mended. Some marriages are too broken. Some people are too damaged.

Now the most important thing in her life is her son, Luke, and she will do anything in her power to protect him. So when Alex is a few minutes late bringing Luke back, Liz begins to worry, and when he is an hour late her concern grows, and when he is later still she can feel her whole life changing, because what if Alex is not just late?

Heart breaker

This story was scary at times but I stuck with it. Unfortunately we live in a sad world and hope things like this doesn't reach our life

Don't waste a credit

I like this author and have read most of her books. Usually they're suspensful. This one was told completely thru voice of narrator so it was just like someone reading you a book. Usually it's told thru voice of characters so it's like listening to a play. I felt it dragged until the end.
