He Belongs To Me by Theresa Rizzo
Catherine Boyd had already been through a lot in her life. She marries young after an unplanned pregnancy, buries one of her infant sons, watches her husband erroneously stand trial for murder and then separates from him to spare him from sacrificing more of his life to her. It was her life, but Catherine had never really been in control, she had never fought for what she wanted – until now.
Theresa Rizzo’s novel, “He Belongs To Me” follows recent Stanford graduate Catherine Boyd in her quest to regain custody of her son, Drew, from her parents, Eric and Suzanne Whittemore. Prior to leaving for college, she signs a guardianship agreement that, unbeknownst to her, was a permanent custody agreement drawn up by her father. Rather than accept the demands of her overbearing, wealthy parents of where and how she should live in order to be with her son, Catherine decides to fight for custody.
Although she had signed her parental rights away, her estranged husband Thomas had not. Now her best chance to regain custody is to reunite with him, which will be an entirely different kind of battle. Even though they still love each other, the two of them haven’t spoken since Drew was a baby and hurtful words still lingered between them. Thomas and Catherine’s reunion is fragile and their battles, both in and out of the courtroom, make for compelling reading.
Although the story is a romance and follows the predictable formula romance readers demand, author Theresa Rizzo must be given a lot of credit for her gripping storyline to keep readers engaged.
