Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 346:

But now, as she lay there grappling with the bitter truth, Joanna couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of disillusionment.

Bryson, her idolized brother, had succumbed to temptation and betrayed her trust by sleeping with Kathy. Disappointment clouded Joanna’s gaze. “I can’t believe you would stoop so low as to use being drunk as an excuse to have sex with a woman. It makes me sick.”
