About The
Magnolia Affair:
Audrey Kingston has the
perfect life she always wanted. An adoring husband, a beautiful house, book
club nights with friends. It was idyllic. It was serene. Until Paxton Tanner,
candidate for state senator, moved in next door.
Seduced by his undeniable
charm, Audrey’s life becomes unrecognizable as she gives in to her impulses.
The affair becomes deadly,
and she gets tossed into a political scandal that leads all the way to the
governor’s office.
When love becomes lethal, there’s
only one way out.
Exclusive Excerpt:
I am having an affair.
I know
what you’re thinking. There has to be a reason. There needs to be a reason.
Something acceptable like after five years of marriage I had spent too many
nights alone with a glass of wine. Or when my workaholic husband was home we
slept back to back, as if he had forgotten how to touch me.
You
would understand that. You’d probably pity me and say, “Bless her heart. How
could a husband treat his wife that way? What else could you do?”
You’d
want me to tell you that the only thing we exchanged was conversations about
the weather and updates on what needed to be added to the grocery list.
It would
probably calm the judgment bubbling to the surface if I described how we ate
dinner in front of the television, commenting occasionally on a drastic
cliffhanger to be continued next week.
You’d
give me a look of pity if I told you he stopped noticing when I got my hair cut
or if I walked into the room in a new dress.
The
story would start to come together in your mind if I painted a picture of how
we went to bed at separate times out of habit, forgetting that we once
scheduled everything around the other.
You
could see it happening. You would almost feel it slipping away like water
through your fingertips. It might create doubt about your own marriage, even
though you’d shake your head, knowing that couldn’t happen to you. Little
pieces of your own truth filtering in between the images you have of us.
It
wasn’t my fault. That’s what you’d tell yourself. You’d probably want to hug me
and console me with soothing words, “It’s understandable. No one can blame
you.”
But I
have a confession. Something you won’t want to hear. Words that will haunt you
more than the excuses. None of it is true. My husband didn’t do those things.
There isn’t a single thing that led me to another man.
I am
having an affair for the worst possible reason. Because I can.
