Forgivable Sins

Quinn McDonald, Ph.D., has the family that we'd all love to have: a solid, loving husband, two teen-agers who still like to hang out with their parents, eccentric and adorable in-laws who come for Friday night poker each week, and a sister whose family is an extension of her own.
She knows she's lucky, and yet, as she comes up to her forty-fourth birthday, she's drawn to daydreaming about a Quinn she left behind, ˜somewhere between graduate school and middle age".
For her present is not a reflection of her past- a past she has managed to keep hidden from others and avoided looking at herself. But it is a past that will not go away, and she realizes this full well when Evan Michaels sweeps into her office, covers her with kisses, and says, "Quinn, I never dreamed I'd see you again".
In that instant, Evan brings back all the pain of their illicit affair, twenty years earlier, and the secret she has kept from, not only him, but her family-a secret that threatens to obliterate everything and everyone she holds dear.
Forgivable Sins is a demonstration of family, faith, support, a secret well kept, and the lengths one will go to protect all of it.
