Adultery For Beginners

When the Freeman family return to England after expat life abroad, Neil settles down immediately while Isabel realizes her life is crying out for something more. After years of being defined as Neil's wife, she finds a position working for the disorganized — if dangerously attractive — Patrick. Although her head tells her to think of Neil and the children, Isabel is drawn to her new boss. But if lust can turn to love, so love can become obsession. Is Neil as contented as he seems? Does her new friend Justine really have Isabel's best interests at heart, or is she working to a different agenda? Isabel is thrown into a whirl of conflicting loyalties, desires, and responsibilities, at whose heart lies the agonizing question: can an adulterous wife be a good mother? A sparkling, passionate, and satisfying novel about relationships, Adultery for Beginners marks the debut of an exciting new talent.
