'Somers's wit is as cool, caustic and dry as liquid nitrogen' TONY TULATHIMUTTE'Hilarious' BRANDON TAYLOR'Compulsively readable' JULIA MAY JONASTwo parents. Happily married. Just not to each other.When Cora meets Sam at a baby group in their small town, the chemistry between them is instant and undeniable. But both are happily married, and neither is the type to cheat. So as their lives intertwine and the romantic tension between them heightens, Cora turns to her imagination: in her head, she and Sam pursue their feelings; in reality, they resist.Yet as the fantasy affair grows ever more intoxicating, it can't help but cast Cora's everyday life - the mushroom problem in the bathroom, her daughter's new fascination with the afterlife, her husband's obsession with podcasts about the history of rope - in a new light. And when the boundaries grow increasingly blurred, she must decide what truly matters.Razor-sharp, exhilaratingly honest and salted with an irresistible acerbic wit, The Ten Year Affair explores family life, fidelity and the roads not taken, and ultimately asks: do we really want our fantasies to come true?

First! Thank you to everyone who checked in and wished me well post surgery!! Healing has been slower than I hoped - possibly due to my MCAS and some anesthesia issues.

I‘m hoping Ten Year Affair gives Sliding Doors! Flat Earth is a risk based on reviews I‘ve read, but why not? Has anyone tried the Volume 0? I liked the authors in this one, so I thought I‘d give it a shot. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Librarybelle I‘m glad you‘re doing well! I somehow missed your surgery info. So glad you checked in! ❤️ 2w
TheLudicReader Hope you are back on your feet soon. 2w
AmyG Glad to hear all is good. Slow and steady. Wishing you a good recovery. 2w

BarbaraBB Take care of yourself dear Meg! I am looking forward to The Book of Guild! 2w
KT1432 Oh no! Sending you well wishes for recovery! I definitely want to get The Book of Guilt. It sounds so eerie! I‘m interested in The Ten Year Affair because from the sample I read I enjoyed the writing, but I just finished Seduction Theory and didn‘t quite care for it lol so I think I‘ll get Ten Year from the library. 2w

Cora meets Sam at a local baby group and realizes that not only is he the sole other parent she can stand, but she is also very attracted him. Sam feels the same but they cannot act on those feelings and potentially destroy two families. But then what if they did? I really loved the way this story was told, managing to make suburban infidelity almost seem fresh. It was funny and gripping if a touch too long. Out 10/21

Lesliereadsalot Ordered this one, thanks for the review! 4w
