The Last to Know by Mark Gartside

It only takes one person to destroy a marriage ...They were the perfect family unit, Tom, Sherry and their daughter Peggy. That was until Daniel Faber walked back into Sherry's life. Never an ex according to Sherry, but Tom is concerned that Daniel wants more from his wife than she realises. The fact that Sherry already has a husband and child doesn't seem to bother him. So begins a battle for the love of one woman, but some people don't play fair and in the middle of the fight stands a little girl who just wants her mother and father to stay together.
