On The Other Foot

Three years after the day their lives intersected, the women of If the Shoe Fits are no longer standing on the same ground.A child sexual assault trial ripples quietly through their shared city, drawing them back into proximity-not through coincidence, but through consequence. Madeline finds herself seated in the jury box, tasked with rendering a verdict she knows will follow her home. Stephanie, the defense attorney, must reconcile her role as a mother with the ethical limits of the law. Sharon, newly steady in her independence, becomes an anchor others turn to when certainty fractures. Carol's carefully maintained sense of control begins to slip as her stepdaughter claims her own autonomy. Adele, widowed and observant, confronts a truth about her late husband that cannot be resolved-only understood. And Tessa, standing on the threshold of adulthood, insists on choosing her future on her own terms.As judgment, loyalty, and restraint are tested, each woman is forced to reckon with what it means to stand by a decision when the outcome offers no comfort-only clarity.On the Other Foot is a novel about moral reversals, quiet reckonings, and the distance between believing something is right and being able to live with it. It asks what happens when the shoe we once saw another woman wear becomes the one we must walk in ourselves.
