Perfect Life. Perfect wife. Content husband. Adorable kid.
Alice McBain lives to ensure everyone in her life is happy. She caters to her husband. She dotes on her daughter. She mother-hens her friends. She bends over backwards for her boss—who is also her lover.
Marilyn Morgan, Alice's boss, and the Mayor of Tuckaway Bay, is gearing up for a state Senate seat run next fall. She's made it perfectly clear they cannot have a perfect relationship with each other until certain things happen. The most important of which is keeping their relationship on the down-low until after the election. She doesn't want her constituents, or her husband, to know she's having an affair with her administrative assistant-slash-campaign manager, until long after she's settled into her new political position at the capital.
Alice understands this—but still itches to move things forward.
After all, they've kept their long-term relationship secret for over a dozen years. Maybe it's time to come out and live that perfect life together they've so often talked about and dreamed of.
So, Alice takes some steps. Tells her own husband. Upsets her daughter. Word gets out. Her perfect life—all their perfect lives—speedily crumbles.
And there's not a damn thing Alice McBain can do about any of it.
