The repercussions of an illicit affair unfold in this short story by bestselling author Taylor Jenkins Reid.

Dear stranger…

A desperate young woman in Southern California sits down to write a letter to a man she’s never met - a choice that will forever change both their lives.

My heart goes out to you, David. Even though I do not know you…

The correspondence between Carrie Allsop and David Mayer reveals, piece by piece, the painful details of a devastating affair between their spouses. With each commiserating scratch of the pen, they confess their fears and bare their souls. They share the bewilderment over how things went so wrong and come to wonder where to go from here.

Told entirely through the letters of two comforting strangers and those of two illicit lovers, Evidence of the Affair explores the complex nature of the heart. And ultimately, for one woman, how liberating it can be when it’s broken.

This was my first time reading a Taylor Jenkins Reid book, even though I have a few on my Kindle. This was a fast read, told entirely through letters and yet I finished it in a couple of hours. This short story managed to squeeze in the perfect amount of drama and some clever twists. The married couples who find their lives entwined are voiced by Julia Whelan, George Newbern, James Daniels and Dara Rosenberg and all gave fantastic performances in the audiobook.
