While the husband is away, the wife will play... Bradley is a good man. He’s loyal and loving and a great husband and father. But the spice is gone from our marriage. It’s time to liven things up a bit.

I’m done being good. Done following the rules. I’ve spent half my life playing wife, mother, chauffeur, and maid. Now, it’s time to play the vixen. It’s time to reclaim the woman I used to be—the woman I was always meant to be. It’s time to shake things up. Warning: This book is short and filled with dirty, steamy sex.

It requires an open mind, so read it till the end. You won’t be sorry!

Review

I received this ARC from IndieSagePR in exchanged for an honest review.

The Affair by J.C. Valentine was a short and sexy read. This review is going to be a little shorter than normal because there isn’t much to discuss without giving away too much. Although it was a short read, it was very well-written and left me satisfied at the very end. It is extremely crucial to remain open minded throughout this book and read until the very end! I wish that I could say more about this book but I will tell you that you won’t regret giving it a try because J.C. Valentine is an extraordinary writer and I have yet to discover a book that I didn’t like from her.

Excerpt

I’ve never done anything like this before. Me, a married woman with kids, sitting alone in a hotel bar drinking cheap, bubbly champagne from a fluted glass. The last time I had champagne was at my wedding twelve years ago. I was younger then, able to stay up past midnight without looking like something death ran over. I had a better body then, too. No stretch marks. Tight stomach. Twenty pounds lighter. My boobs were fantastic, too, defying the laws of gravity. Certainly no need for the uncomfortable underwire pushup from Victoria’s Secret to make them look good. But I digress. I’ve never deliberately sat in a bar waiting for someone to notice me. A nice someone. Someone with dark, kind eyes that hold an edge of danger. Someone that lights that fire in my belly from just a look, the barest touch. After popping out two kids and spending the last seven and a half years running endless errands and performing maid duties in exchange for a weekly romance novel stipend and the occasional functional haircut when time allows, I’ve missed that feeling. You know the one—excitement, flare, burning desire. I’m at the point in my life where I need to reclaim a part of myself. That part that needs to be reminded she’s still a woman. A woman with needs. With desires. With dreams and passions and a zest for life.

That’s why I’m here tonight. While my children play gin rummy and eat far too many sweets with my in-laws, I’m on a mission to rediscover the vibrant, sexy, confident woman I used to be.
