Mean Streak by Sandra Brown

This was my first Sandra Brown book becaue I was a book snob and thought that writers who do 'suspenseful mysteries' one after another were a dime a dozen. The jury is still out on that one but this was a riveting tale even if it had a couple cliches in it. I am on a "missing person/fucked up relationships" kick. And this one had both. We have our doctor woman who is married but is in a fight with her husband when she goes to a mounntain to do a 20 mile as per her marathon training. She goes and all is well until she's found unconsious knocked upside the head with a rock. she wakes up in a cabin of some dude who is tall dark and handsome. It's vague if he's involvedd in her accident but she falls for him despite fearing him cuz this guys' been involved in some heavy shit. so in alternating chapters we find out more about hubby, how he could also be involved since the doctor woman, his wife is an heiress, she's fiflthy rich and they have separate accounts. he's also having an affair with......wait for it..... her best friend! i'm not giving much away cuz there's so much more to the story. it's so good, like soap opera good that yes i'm eating my own stuck up snotty words that books like these are crap. if they are, then i love crap!!!
