Camden Edson never believed in happily ever after. Men were fine for a good time, but love? Commitment? Marriage? Those belonged in fairy tales, not real life. After watching her father walk away from her family for another woman, Camden built her life around one simple rule: never depend on anyone. Then she met Theo Sullivan. Somehow, the brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon slipped past every defense she had. He became the one person who made forever feel possible. Two years into their marriage, Camden is thriving as a clinical psychologist while Theo begins an intense cardiovascular fellowship at the same hospital. Long hours and opposite schedules leave little time for each other, but every stolen moment reminds Camden why she took the chance. Until one weekend changes everything. When Camden receives an emergency call that her estranged father is being rushed into open-heart surgery, she desperately tries to reach Theo. His phone goes straight to voicemail. Then she calls his best friend. Only to discover Theo was never where he claimed he would be. As old wounds rip open, Camden is forced to confront more than the possibility of her husband's betrayal. She's suddenly responsible for saving the life of the man whose own infidelity destroyed her family, while questioning whether the marriage she fought to believe in was built on the very lie she swore she'd never survive twice. Some hearts can be repaired. Others never heal the same way.

A story about a smart woman who loves her husband, her son and her life. When she learns that her husband isn't the man she thought he was, she works on giving her son the life he deserves. It's also about a lying and cheating man, who thought he was clever enough to avoid honesty and accountability in his life. Sometimes making a mistake and then sincerely apologizing, just might just not be enough. "Mommy, why is daddy and that lady nakey hugging?" My son innocently and loudly asks, while his father seems to be trying to locate his pants. Spoiler alert, they are on the floor under my feet, by the door, not anywhere near where he and his 'nakey' friend are sprawled on the couch. The woman shrieks, Kayley and I both fumble for the light switch just as River hits the button for daddy's 'magic office windows', which are now fully visible to the entire office floor, and all 127 employees are staring at and sharing my horror as my husband and his whatever she is are naked and trying to get dressed. Well damn, happy Wednesday to me.
