    About this ebook

    Adultery. Revenge. Self-destruction.

    Sally would give anything to turn the clock back... To her horror, Sally discovers her husband is committing adultery. He's broken her heart and she tries to lure him back, but his affair continues. Rather than confront her husband for fear of losing him to the other woman, Sally seeks revenge. She can't tolerate his betrayal or the face the fear of other people knowing. He's ruined their marriage which once seemed to be a perfect partnership, and vengeance sets in with grave consequences. 

    Can Sally come to terms with the aftermath of her actions? This short story highlights the enormity a rash decision can make to a woman with once high morals. Sally's life has turned into a never-ending spiral of destruction for her and her family, and she is powerless to stop it.

    If you like reality books and are moved by individuals facing tremendous challenges, then you'll love After the Secret, book one in Jacqui Penn's steamy After the Book novella series.
