About This Author
I am a 40 year old married mother of two teenage boys. I live for writing, especially romance. Love the happily ever after scenerio. The best thing about writing for me is the ability to lose yourself in your work, and feel as if you've accomplished something great. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters.

Greetings, Purple!

I found this by using the Random Read and Review button.

I was surprised at how old it is: I don’t remember the last time I discovered a nearly twenty year old story from a current member by random. This is tight, well written and to the point, leaving us with a sense of loss at such blatant treachery.

These days it seems like the writing around here has gotten “softer,” because I was waiting for the goofy heartfelt twist to reveal the hubby’s innocence, and there was none. Perhaps you couldn’t fit one in, or perhaps there is no reason for such unrealistic tropish dreams.

If you ever wanted to expand on this idea, you could explore the dynamics of the relationship prior to her discovery. Was he doing a good job of “loving” her? Was it a happy marriage? Not usually… there’s always something wrong somewhere in these cases.

Take care, thanks for sharing, and keep writing *HeartT*
