The Primrose Path

About this ebook
A brief exploration of the sinful act of an extramarital affair. Morals will be questioned. Repercussions will be faced. A marriage of seven years falls apart as Dr. Nathaniel Faraday unwittingly falls in love with his witty and skillful resident, Dr. Eliza Robbins. Matters of the heart and the mind will battle, leaving neither unscathed. The primrose path of dalliance bespeaks... calamity.
