Between Favours: The Champagne Hurricane Trilogy - Book 3

Between Favours is the third part of the fictitious Love Story set in Calgary, Alberta. Tee Manley has done some crazy things in her life, but falling in love with her Canadian brother-in-law has got to be the dumbest so far, and she knows it. Stevie Manley is in love with a woman, a woman he knows he should never fall in love with. Sadly, the woman in question is his sister-in-law, Tee Manley.
Tee and Terri’s relationship is tested, yet again, when her step-son has a blowout at an awards ceremony. With the fallout there are a few harsh words said and one realisation. Stevie doesn’t want to be a part of Ea$y anymore. Finally, he’s prepared to walk away for good and never to look back.
As Tee’s feelings for Stevie become harder to deal with she travels more, hoping to ease her suffering. On a stopover in Vancouver, by chance, Tee meets a face from the past, Ches Kramer. A new bed-buddy is found, one Tee starts to think about more often than not.
Stevie and Tee know they shouldn’t do it, but they do, their feelings too much in the heat of the moment. Trusts are broken in a second, with family and friends, trusts that can never be gained again. And so their secret is a cage around them, one that will be the ending of all they’ve come to know and love.
A big secret never stays a secret for long. Stevie hates himself enough as it is and confesses all to his Mom, Beth. Soon enough his wife, Chelsea, works it out for herself, and it results in her leaving him, taking their two boys. This also damages her friendship with Tee beyond repair.
Advice is required. Tee goes to visit the older woman she sees as a Mother figure. Beth knows all about their sordid affair and tells her to disappear for good. Ches sits in L.A., waiting, and Tee thinks maybe he’s not such a bad resolve, they do work well together.
So, as the world she once shared with Max becomes a distant memory, she does exactly as she did at the very start of her story, and moves to another country to be with the one.
