The Homemaker

A romance inspired by TS "Fortnight"

I was hers, but she was never mine.

Alice Yates is the hired "homemaker" for the Morrisons, an affluent couple in Minneapolis. For Alice, it's a dream job to dress up like a 1950s housewife and read romance novels to Mr. Morrison before his afternoon nap.

But when the Morrisons' only daughter returns home for the summer with her fiancé, Alice comes face- to-face with her shattered past-the only threat to her perfect life.

Eight years earlier, vacation rental owner Murphy Paddon had an impeccable vinyl record collection and did the most irresistible thing before kissing Alice, earning him a five-star rating. Their fortnight love affair was life-altering and ended tragically.

Murphy doesn't know if Alice remembers him or whether he should tell his fiancée that the hired-help living in the guesthouse is the woman who irreparably broke his heart. He needs closure, but will the lingering glances and silent yearning lead to the end or just the beginning?
