The Space Between Us

The Space Between Us *by Renee White* For twenty-five years, they returned to each other in stolen moments—in hotel rooms that where filled with regret, in texts and emails hastily deleted, in the spaces between their real lives and their truest selves. She was married. He was married. Yet neither could deny the gravitational pull that kept drawing them back, year after year, through seasons of doubt and devotion, through the accumulation of small betrayals and overwhelming tenderness. But secrets have a weight that compounds with time. As their children grew, as their spouses aged, as the world shifted around them, the question became impossible to ignore: *What were they willing to sacrifice for a love that could never be fully claimed?* A haunting meditation on desire, duty, and the price of passion—*A Quarter Century of Longing* asks whether some loves are worth the devastation they leave in their wake.
