Vow: A Memoir of Marriage (and Other Affairs) by Wendy Plump is her "achingly honest story of giving in to the temptation of an affair and the Pandora's box of emotion that came with discovering her husband had also given in."
When Wendy Plump heard from a neighbour that her husband was having an affair, the news was not a shock, but what she was not prepared for was the revelation that he had an eight-month-old son living within a mile of their family home.
"The discovery of her husband's second family followed betrayals of Wendy's own, earlier in the marriage, and prompted her to explore the wreckage of the relationship head-on - from the view of both the betrayer and the betrayed. In this compelling memoir, Wendy looks at the ordeal of Finding Out, the recovery, the ebb and flow of passion, the patterns of adultery, the undeniable allure of illicit attraction, the lovers, the lies and the alibis. Frank, intelligent and important, Vow takes you under the covers. It will transform your understanding of fidelity and commitment forever."
