Publisher's Synopsis
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."
