About this eBook

'What they were doing was not an affair because Ethan had never laid a hand on Abigail. But it also was, because leaving a department potluck to buy cigarettes was better than sex.'

Simone is the star of the Edwards University Creative Writing Department: renowned scholar, grief memoirist, and campus sex icon. Her less glamorous and ostensibly devoted husband, Ethan, is a forgotten novelist and lecturer in the same department. But when Ethan and the department administrative assistant Abigail have sex, Simone's graduate student Roberta "Robbie" Green fictionalizes the affair.

Determined to tell her version of the story, Robbie's youthful and sardonic voice weaves in and out of the novel until she finally takes charge of the plot.

Juicy, sexy, funny and smart, Seduction Theory is a story about how love and betrayal can coexist.
