What happens when love strikes twice—and the second time it does you are already satisfactorily, even happily, married? Michelle Banyon has a successful career as a lifestyle guru and “efficiency consultant.” She lives in Manhattan with her kind but thoroughly overworked international-lawyer husband. They are the perfect twenty-first-century couple: successful, self-sufficient, and understanding of the all-too-frequent absences that can sometimes make theirs a virtual marriage.

While lecturing in Texas, Michelle literally runs into Wilson Collins as she’s backing out of a parking space. The handsome Texan is badly banged up, and Michelle performs one kindness after another as she tries to help him. A friendship blooms and, almost as quickly, love does, too. Unlike everyone else in Michelle’s life, Wilson has simple needs and desires and, to her immense surprise, she finds that she is someone very different when she’s with him. It’s not that she doesn’t love her husband—she does. She just happens to love two men, and the second one wants to marry her, too.

Confessions of a Bigamist is a romantic, thought-provoking novel that explores the question: Could you be happy living two entirely different lives?

From the Inside Flap:
What happens when love strikes twice--and the second time it does you are already satisfactorily, even happily, married?

Michelle Banyon has a successful career as a lifestyle guru and "efficiency consultant." She lives in Manhattan with her kind but thoroughly overworked husband, an international lawyer who spends far more time in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Bombay than he does in their Fifth Avenue apartment. They are the perfect twenty-first-century couple: successful, attractive, self-sufficient, and understanding of the all-too-frequent absences that can sometimes make theirs a virtual marriage.

While lecturing in Texas, Michelle literally runs into Wilson Collins as she's backing out of a parking space. The handsome Texan is badly banged up and Michelle feels just awful. She performs one kindness after another as she tries to get him medical help and then get him home. A friendship blooms and, almost as quickly, love does, too.

Unlike everyone else in Michelle's life, Wilson has simple needs and desires and, to her immense surprise, she finds that she is someone very different when she's with him. It's not that she doesn't love her husband--she does. She just happens to love two men, and the second one wants to marry her, too.

Have you ever wondered how many different lives a person could live or how very different one's life might be if fate were to intervene at exactly the right moment? Could you be happy living two entirely different lives?

Sit back and enjoy Kate Lehrer's romantic, thought-provoking novel that is simultaneously smart and playful, poignant and compulsively readable.
