Final Exit

Sometimes love comes into a person's life like a hurricane, fierce and powerful, sweeping up everything in its path. And after a hurricane hits, things are never the same. For Dr. Robert Geller, love is about to make its mark when Jennifer Allen enters his life--like a gift from the gods.

A charismatic, ambitious cardiothoracic surgeon, Robert is a man of roguish charm who lives a life of privilege in an exclusive New Jersey enclave. But his high profile success came at a perilous price. He's trapped in a loveless marriage with an emotionally unstable wife and a ruthless and tyrannical father-in-law. With divorce not an option, Robert defiantly pursues Jennifer, an alluring and vibrant jewelry designer, and their passionate affair intensifies, ensnaring them in a web of danger, deceit and intrigue.

This is a dark, romantic tale of one man's obsession to be with the woman he loves. It is a story that explores the extreme measures people will take to get what they want and the violent acts they will commit to hold on to what they have. It is a mesmerizing novel that lays bare the hidden depths of human nature, and the characters will hold you and haunt you long after you have read the final chapter.

Tracing the currents of desire, author Joan Nelson has delivered a debut novel that establishes her as a powerful storyteller. Blending the high drama and lyrical prose of Alice Hoffman with the haunting sensuality and suspense of MJ Rose, Final Exit is a heart-pounding tale of love, betrayal and thrilling intrigue.
