Defying Eternity: Blossom Winter Book 4 is by Melanie Martins. Petra van Gatt was concerned about her mother. She had heard from her right before her wedding telling Petra that she was going to be out of pocket for a while (an undetermined time). Then she called again and wanted to meet with her, but didn’t show up. The Attorney General had come to see Petra and tell her that her mother was dead and to arrest Petra’s husband for her death. Did Alex lie when he said he had nothing to do with her death? She knew he had lied about what he had done in his twentys that made her mother not like him. She didn’t know what to believe. Eric Bradshaw, the Attorney General, got his son Matthew to talk to her and help convince her to testify against her fiancé. Petra was so confused she agreed to help the Attorney General get proof that her husband had killed her mother.
Petra was only nineteen and had been married to Alec for only a short time. In that time she had been in a coma for six weeks after losing her baby. She was not in a good place mentally when she made that decision. When she wanted her husband back, she had a lot to try to get him to forgive her for. Alec being older felt betrayed by her as he had been betrayed earlier. Then Petra finds she is pregnant again. This time with twins and there were complications. Just when she needed her husband, he wasn’t there.
