Publisher's summary

The repercussions of an illicit affair unfold in this short story by bestselling author Taylor Jenkins Reid.

Dear stranger…

A desperate young woman in Southern California sits down to write a letter to a man she’s never met - a choice that will forever change both their lives.

My heart goes out to you, David. Even though I do not know you…

The correspondence between Carrie Allsop and David Mayer reveals, piece by piece, the painful details of a devastating affair between their spouses. With each commiserating scratch of the pen, they confess their fears and bare their souls. They share the bewilderment over how things went so wrong and come to wonder where to go from here.

Told entirely through the letters of two comforting strangers and those of two illicit lovers, Evidence of the Affair explores the complex nature of the heart. And ultimately, for one woman, how liberating it can be when it’s broken.

Wanted it to never end

10 stars!

Surprisingly sweet love story. When it began I almost gave up on it. However I enjoyed the short back and forth style. The end was everything it needed to be and I highly recommend this story!!!

Short but sweet

This audiobook is short but the story is so good and is so well written. Julia Whelan is, in my opinion, is the best female narrator out there. Her narration paired with Taylor Jenkins Reid’s writing is **chef’s kiss** perfection.

Taylor Jenkins Reid does it again just in a shorter form. I was hooked and also appreciated the performance of multiple narrators
