The Affair — Thomas William Simpson

Bell is a regular guy. A middle class guy. A working stiff. A 'Found Art' sculptor but still a working stiff. A wife and five (5!) kids. He's a lot like you. Or your brother. Or your buddy. Or maybe your husband. Sure, he checks out good looking women. Gives them the eye when they sashay down the street. Chats them up when the opportunity arises. Fantasizes about having a fling, a tryst, an affair. But Bell's true blue. A faithful and honorable guy. Or thinks he is. To Emily. Their kids. Their whole crazy, chaotic union. Of course, Bell is also a man. And men are given to temptation. Beautiful women are a temptation. Especially beautiful women who flirt and tease. The Affair is about temptation. And seduction. Deception and manipulation. The Affair is about Bell. And Emily. And the beautiful Ava, who had been, as a young woman, one of the most alluring and sought after fashion models on earth. Now, the chance for revival dangling in the breeze, Ava has inserted herself in Bell and Emily's world. But why? To what end? What is Ava after? And now that she has arrived can things ever be the same again? The Affair bristles with sexual tension and marital strain. Bell finds himself caught in the middle: Desire or duty? Lust or love? Bell is not a complete fool. He knows full well he risks everything every time he takes Ava into his arms. And into his bed. But it quickly becomes clear Bell is clueless. He's nothing but a pawn. Whole worlds to which he is not privy are unfolding around him… We all live in worlds of our own making. And unmaking. The Affair is a provocative and contemporary erotic thriller. It will change the way you feel about relationships, commitments, marriage. Your own marriage may never be the same again. Nothing good can come of The Affair.
