Promises and Other Broken Things

Promises and Other Broken Things: A story about love, choices, and living with the consequences.

Amelia York seems to have it all: a great career, good friends, and she's married to her high school sweetheart. Starting a promising new job is just another step in the life she has all figured out. The intense connection she develops with a handsome co-worker, however, threatens to derail all her well thought-out plans.

Declan Kavanaugh's whole world revolves around his daughter. Overworked and under-appreciated both by his wife at home and his colleagues at his family's firm, the stress is starting to get to him. Making friends with the pretty new accountant comes as a surprise, but he finds time spent with Amelia is like the breath of fresh air he so desperately needs.

Neither of them wants any complications in their lives-and the last thing they want is to fall in love.

But as they discover, sometimes no matter how much you fight it, life has other ideas.

***Similar in vein to Showtime's critically acclaimed series, "The Affair", this novel explores from both points of view how two people's lives, two people's marriages, families, become irrevocably changed by the choices they've made.
