The Affair

A young woman discovers a family journal and the long-hidden secret affair within...


There are some paths in your life you’re never meant to take.

Yet, by some twist of fate, you find yourself on the forbidden road all the same.


Those were the words I stumbled upon as I uncovered a hidden journal that once belonged to my grandmother.


A hidden journal that documents a heartbreaking affair with her husband's brother—a family secret I was unprepared for, especially as my own life began to mirror hers.


Sawyer Gallagher was never on my radar. From the moment I met his younger brother, I was captivated, love-struck, and completely his.


However, some things aren't meant to last, and at thirty-three, I found myself divorced, penniless, and living with my mother. When Sawyer visited our family's antique store seeking a job, I thought: Why not? Life couldn't get much worse.


It didn't take long to notice just how different the Gallagher brothers were. Sawyer was kind, supportive, and—did I mention sexy as hell?


In our small town, I couldn't help but wonder...

Could I possibly fall for my former brother-in-law?

Or was this simply history repeating itself?
