Convenient

For ten years, she built a beautiful house in the dark. Now, the lights are finally coming on.

Marlena thought she had found her safe harbor. After a bruising engagement left her shattered, Wade Corbin was the perfect remedy-steady, charismatic, and seemingly devoted. She gladly stepped into the role of the capable, invisible foundation of his life. She managed his historic Savannah home, embraced his young daughter, and nearly died giving birth to his medically fragile son. She was the perfect placeholder wife.

But as the years bleed into a grueling routine of medical emergencies and suffocating loneliness, the cracks in the marriage begin to show. Wade's long, unexplained hours, the whispered phone calls in the dead of night, and a crushing, casual cruelty force Marlena to confront a devastating truth: he didn't marry her out of passion. He married her out of convenience. And the woman he truly loved never actually left the picture.

Convenient is an intensely emotional, heart-wrenching domestic drama about the insidious nature of quiet betrayal and the heavy toll of loving a man who is looking right through you. It is a powerful exploration of toxic relationships, surviving infidelity, and the profound isolation of motherhood when you are entirely alone in a crowded house.

More than a story of a broken marriage, this is a triumphant, unvarnished journey of a woman finding herself again. It is for every woman who has ever shrunk herself to fit into a space that was never meant for her-and who finally found the courage to pack her bags and walk away into the sun.

If you love gripping contemporary women's fiction, tear-jerking family sagas, and stories of breathtaking emotional resilience, you will not be able to put this book down.
