The Layover (Hardcover)

Author David Stone has gone from unknown Independent to New York Times best-seller overnight - a transition that hasn't come without a price. After two lengthy tours, David finds his sales at an all-time high, and his marriage to Nicole at an all-time low. And while David has made several attempts to bridge the gap that has settled between them, it seems the emotional and physical connection they once had has been severed beyond repair. During a layover, David encounters Elise, a beautiful business woman who joins him at the terminal bar. The two pass the time together in innocence, but it quickly becomes apparent that, with the bridge to his wife in such a state of decay, even the subtlest attentions of another woman are enough to arouse David's interests. What happens when casual conversation over drinks shifts to an invitation for something more? Where will David draw the line? And if he does, can he keep from crossing it?
