Two long-time friends...one impulsive seduction...zero percent chance their lives will ever be the same again.
The peace Helen Mansfield struggled to achieve since the death of her husband is threatened when she discovers a lump in her breast. Pledging to keep the alarming news to herself until the biopsy results are revealed, she vows to wring every drop of delight from her days.
Nathan Spieth stood by his wife while she fought and ultimately lost her own battle with the malignant illness. Since then, he’s devoted his energy to rebuilding the career that he neglected during those final years, and all his hard work is about to pay off.
As neighbours and friends, Helen and Nathan’s lives have been woven together for more than twenty years. One impetuous, impassioned night might destroy everything they share—or prove to this fiercely independent woman and determinedly solitary man that love is always worth the risk.
