Book Description:
From the bestselling author of The  Carousel and Daybreak  comes a stirring, timely story of adultery and its  impact on the American  family.



Margaret and Adam Crane seem to have a near perfect  life--she's a teacher, he's a computer executive,  and together they are lovingly raising their own  children and Margaret's orphaned niece. Then one  day the phone rings--and suddenly everything  changes forever as a woman from Adam's university days  reappears in his life, and an old affair  reignites. At the same time, there are problems in Adam's  workplace--a possible takeover and downsizing. The  reverberations from these two circumstances will  touch many lives and bring with them changes that  no one could have predicted.



In  Promises, Belva Plain--as only she  can do--depicts the fraying fabric of family life  in the wake of extramarital affairs, while at the  same time celebrating the importance of strong  and nurturing family values. Dramatic, compelling,  and always exciting, Belva Plain's storytelling  talents confirm her standing as the foremost  chronicler of family life today.
