About the book

Lots of men stray in a failing marriage. And Joshua had good reason. After all, it was nearly a year since Joanna had denied him access to her bed and body. Yet it seemed only yesterday that their fragile love had shattered with the death of their only child. "I'm taking Angela to the States, " he had stated coldly, "and you must find yourself a lover, too!" That he demanded a year away with someone else, and the same for Joanna, was hurtful. But the rekindling of desire between her and Joshua right before his departure troubled Joanna most of all.
