When cosmetic dermatologist Jake Goodwin meets Briana Caulder, she leaves a lingering impression, and it's not a good one. Beautiful. Entitled. Obnoxious. In short, his new patient is the caricature of a Connecticut trophy wife. But when Briana returns days later, she's a different woman: soft-spoken, polite, shy. And terrified.
Goodwin suspects she's a victim of spousal abuse. Trapped in his own faltering marriage, he can't help but reach out to her. What harm could come from a short conversation over coffee? But when friendship turns into something more, Briana's powerful husband retaliates, with deadly consequences.
Now a patient is dead - either the victim of an experimental beauty drug with a lethal side effect, malpractice, or murder. Goodwin stands to lose everything: his career, his family, even his life. But can he trust Briana to help him, or does she have her own dark, hidden agenda?

Cassie Turner never thought she'd be the kind of woman who cheats. She had a good life. A husband who adored her. A marriage that should've been enough. But then Zane Reed walked in-tattoos snaking across his skin, piercing green eyes full of danger, and a presence that made it impossible to look away.

What started as a secret spiraled into something she couldn't control. Passion. Lies. Guilt. And a love that was never meant to last.

Now, she's standing at the edge of everything she swore she'd never ruin, faced with a choice she should have made long ago. Because in the end, it was never about him. It was always about them. And she just hopes that she isn't too late to fix what she broke. ******** "Fuck me like I'm famous," I smile against his lips. "Then scream for me like the paparazzi's watching" he said as he thrust forward. ********* THE AFFAIR contains mature themes, including erotica, explicit language, and mental health struggles, which maybe upsetting for some readers.
