The Mistake I Made

Written by Paula Daly

Narrated by Dawn Murphy

After the dissolution of her marriage, Roz’s business has gone under, debts are racking up, the rent is late, and she's struggling to provide for her son, who is misbehaving in school. When Roz gets an eviction notice, she has two weeks to find a solution or they will be kicked out of their home. Then, at her sister’s fortieth birthday party, Roz meets Scott Elias - wealthy, powerful, and very married. But the impression Roz leaves on him is indelible. He tracks her down and makes Roz an offer to spend the night with him - for money. He wants no-strings-attached intimacy and can guarantee total discretion. With that kind of cash, Roz is forced to do things she never thought herself capable of.

Reviews for The Mistake I Made

[Selina Cooper · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

very. Very. VERY GOOD!!

Absolutely enjoyed this story. Intriguing premise, excellently executed. I loved Roz, the main character. Lots of ups and downs, and plenty of smarmy characters! Enjoyed the narrator’s performance. Don’t want to give anything away, no spoilers. Just to say I definitely recommend it.

I just want to add a comment that books like this, so very well written, are worth their weight in gold, and far surpass many of the thousands of 5 star books out there. It is such a shame that these books (sleepers?) don’t get the attention they deserve. ?
