Her whole life, Ava Carson has been sure of one thing:
she doesn’t
measure up to her mother’s expectations. So when Mitchell
Carson sweeps
into her life with his adorable son, the ready-made
family seems like a
dream come true. In the blink of an eye, she’s married,
has a new baby,
and life is wonderful.
Or is it?
When her picture-perfect marriage begins unraveling at
the seams, Ava
convinces herself she can fix it. It's temporary. It’s
the stress. It’s
Mitchell’s tragic history of loss.
If only Ava could believe her own excuses.
Mitchell is no longer the charming, thoughtful man she
married. He
grows more controlling by the day, revealing a violent
jealous streak.
His behavior is recklessly erratic, and the unanswered
questions about
his past now hint at something far more sinister than Ava
can stomach.
Before she can fit the pieces together, Mitchell files
for divorce and
demands full custody of their boys.
Fueled by fierce love for her children and aided by
Graham Thomas, a
new attorney in town —Ava takes matters into her own
hands, digging
deep into the past. But will finding the truth be enough
to beat
Mitchell at his own game?
CENTER OF GRAVITY weaves a chilling tale, revealing
the unfailing
and dangerous truth that things—and people—are not always
what they
seem.
