Evidence of the Affair

by Taylor Jenkins Reid

You must know we could never be a one-time thing. We are once-in-a-lifetime paramours.

That is why I surrendered to you. And I suspect it is why you surrendered to me. We are meant to be in the same place at the same time.

I have never loved before. If this is what love is.

Anyway, about the sandbar. It reminded me of you because you are my sandbar. I was lost at sea, and then you showed up. My dry land.
