Watching From the Next Room

By Kathy Quean

She signed the feeling before she signed the paper. Then she watched him walk toward another woman and stayed to feel every second of it.

These five stories follow wives who make room for a rival and find the thrill in what they give away. A yoga instructor keeps a secret that is not so secret once the wife starts watching. The neighbor becomes the new favorite, and the woman next door learns how it feels to be left on the other side of the wall. After hours at the office, professional distance melts into something she is invited to witness. A contract turns jealousy into an agreement she cannot stop rereading. Holy visits pull her husband toward devotion that has nothing to do with her pew, and the fracture in her faith becomes hunger.

This collection is for readers who want the slow burn of replacement, the heat of arranged watching, and the intimate shock of a wife who stays close enough to see. Suggestive, tense, and built around the woman who agrees, observes, and aches.
