More About the Author
Product Description
Book Description
"...she feels raw, like burnt skin, like nails broken below the quick, the breath in her throat as sharp as razors, though she has no right to feel any of this, as she is the one burning and breaking and cutting up the life they have shared for ten years."
The Oven House explores the unpredictable nature of desire and what happens when obsession and excitement erode our connections with reality. Erotic and painfully perceptive in its portrayal of the workings of guilt, it reveals the selfishness and grief, as well as the tenderness, that accompany love. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Format:Hardcover
This is basically the story of a married woman, who falls in love with another man, and enters a passionate affair with him. And yet, it's much more than that - it explores many aspects of love, of loss, and of eventual healing. It's also beautifully written, as Lynne takes us deep into Breeze's life, and lays open her varying emotions. It's a book to get lost in, and this is an author to look out for!
