Hello friends,I tend to be a weekend reader, reading an entire book, or at least half of one and finishing it during the week. This weekend I had a knitting lesson, baked like a mad woman, ran, and knit a hat while watching a movie. A winter hat!
I sneaked in about seventy pages.

My season of summer reading seems to be starting early this year, I have been enjoying women's fiction while I wait for a few of my favorite, must read author's to publish.
I'm reading a book, for review. Covet publishes next week in the United States. Told from three voices, at page seventy the story is set up and about to take off.
Synopsis: What if the life you wanted, and the woman you fell in love with, belonged to someone else?Downsized during the recession and out of work for a year, Chris copes by retreating to a dark place where no one can reach him, not even Claire. When he's offered a position that will keep him away from home four nights a week, he dismisses Claire's concern that time apart could be the one thing their fragile union can't weather. Their suburban life may look idyllic on the outside, but Claire has never felt so disconnected from Chris, or so lonely.
Local police officer Daniel Rush used to have it all, but now he goes home to an empty house every night. He pulls Claire over during a routine traffic stop, and they run into each other again at the 4th of July parade. When Claire is hired to do some graphic design work for the police department, her friendship with Daniel grows, and soon they're spending hours together.Claire loves the way Daniel makes her feel, and the way his face lights up when she walks into the room. Daniel knows that Claire's marital status means their relationship will never be anything other than platonic. But it doesn't take long before Claire and Daniel are in way over their heads, and skating close to the line that Claire has sworn she'll never cross.
