Actress Georgie Connelly is thrilled to leave her stifling suburban existence behind and move to London with
her husband and three young sons. Almost immediately, she lands her dream role, playing 18th century
actress and royal mistress Dora Jordan in a one-woman show. Dora Jordan, a real life figure, was the most
famous stage actress of her time, mistress to the Duke of Clarence (later King William IV of England) and
mother to thirteen beloved children. Dora's story, Shakespeare's Woman, unfolds as a play-within-the-novel,
and as Georgie rehearses her part she feels a growing connection to Dora, whose struggle to combine the
family she loves with work she adores strikes Georgie as remarkably similar to her own.

As the play opens to great acclaim, Georgie also finds herself increasingly drawn to the playwright, Piers
Brighstone, and when they leave London for a short run at a countryside theatre, she and Piers begin an
affair. The novel is narrated by Georgie's husband Peter, a failed writer turned businessman whose discovery
of the affair leads to harrowing consequences that none of them could possibly foresee. My Wife's Affair is
about infidelity and its devastating effects on a good marriage, but more than that it is about the wrenching
conflicts one woman must face between work and family, husband and children, art and life.

When fifteen-year-old Matt and his family move from Oregon to an affluent Connecticut suburb, the fact
that he is home-schooled brands him as an outsider. Just when he has made inroads in the closed social
circuit by befriending a trio of teenage girls, he is responsible for a devastating car crash that leaves two
of the girls dead. The third girl, Tara, isn't in the car with her best friends because she's by her mother
Jennie's bedside as she gives birth to a baby girl. When Jennie reaches out to Matt to try to save him, she
finds herself vilified as well. In the face of community derision, Jennie and Matt find themselves in solidarity,
but Jennie must ultimately make a choice between Matt and her own daughter. Someone Else's Child is the
deeply moving story of guilt and forgiveness, despair and hope, and the intricacies of love and responsibility.

"Nancy Woodruff's fast, fierce, humblingly resonant first novel has only one flaw: it is impossible to read enough of it. Every sentence glows with truths we keep hidden. Nancy Woodruff is a storyteller of great heart and generosity who tells difficult truths in plain words."

— Jacquelyn Mitchard, author of The Most Wanted and The Deep End of the Ocean
