Welcome to book 1 in the Newton's Crossing series. In the heart of the suburbs of White Pines, two lives are about to intertwine in ways neither could have foreseen. Joseph Guillaume, a floor salesman at Bennet's Building Supplies, finds himself trapped in the monotony of his life and the cold silence of a loveless marriage. Maxine Colston, on the outside, appears to have it all-a beautiful home and a seemingly perfect existence. But beneath the surface, Maxine yearns for a passion long since extinguished in her marriage to Harold, a high-stakes gambler whose luck is about to run out.

When Joe and Maxine meet, a spark ignites, offering a fleeting promise of the passion they both crave. As their affair blossoms, it threatens to unravel not just their marriages but the very fabric of their lives.

Thrust into a web of deception and lust, Joe and Maxine find themselves facing the ultimate test of love and loyalty. Can they forge a new path together, or will the weight of their pasts pull them under? Set against the backdrop of an ordinary suburb, this novel is a captivating tale of desire, betrayal, and redemption where two souls must decide if the price of their happiness is one they can afford to pay.
