What to expect
One night. One secret. One choice she can never take back.💔
Daisy Bailey has it all: the perfect home, the perfect husband, the perfect life. Or so it seems.
When she runs into Tom Burgess—her first love—old feelings spark back to life. But what begins as a nostalgic reunion soon twists into obsession, temptation, and a dangerous game Daisy can’t seem to walk away from.
Her sister Sarah thinks she’s reckless, ready to throw away her marriage to Cole for a man she barely remembers. But Cole has secrets of his own. And Sarah knows far more than she’s admitting…
As desire tangles with deception, Daisy finds herself spiralling into a web of secrets and lies. One mistake leads to another… until tragedy strikes, and Daisy is forced to make a devastating choice.
How far will she go for the man she can’t forget - and what will her one night stand cost her to finally know the truth?
