* Please avoid spoilers!


My Teaser:

Eileen looked out the window. "If it makes you feel any better, I never could have imagined it either. I thought he loved you like your Paddy loved your mam. It rocked a lot of us to the foundations. The betrayal is that much worse when you think you know a person."
