Faithful

Faithful

by Davitt Sigerson (Author)

Synopsis

Nick is a trader on the London Stock Exchange, an honest, decent man. He has never been with anyone as desirable as Trish, so attuned to his moods and ready to embody his most intimate desires. Trish, an international marketing executive, is a completely modern woman: capable, romantic and sexually confident. Attracted by Nick?s good looks, his compassion and boyish charms, she falls for him, and within two months of their first meeting they are married. But when Trish?s past intrudes upon their happiness, she makes a choice that will take their lives in extraordinary directions. Between poignant depictions of fatherhood and scenes of full-on sex, Davitt Sigerson has crafted a luminous story about people - like ourselves - who try to do the right thng yet still manage to make a mess of their lives. Written with intelligence, empathy and an awareness of the ways in which today?s women experience their sexual prowess, Faithful is a stunning debut.

Media Reviews
?If you have any desire to sleep, eat or go to work for the next few days, don?t read Faithful: it?s compulsive. A tender, mischievous and infinitely sexy piece of work.? Fernanda Eberstadt, author of The Furies ?Faithful is a mystery story - fast, tense, surprising, sexy, unnerving. But it is even more a brilliant love story in which Sigerson captures the passion of a man for one woman, and the devotion of a father for one daughter.? Susanna Moore, author of In the Cut ?A compelling novel about love in its many transformations. Sigerson recognizes that the rules are gone and love cannot be kept within boundaries. Ignoring the old conventions and facing enormous difficulties, his characters' emotions emerge triumphant and true. I love this book.? Susan Cheever, author of Home Before Dark
