A Ship Made of Paper: A Novel by Scott Spencer

Daniel Emerson lives with Kate Ellis, and he is like a father to her daughter, Ruby. But he cannot control his desire for Iris Davenport, the African-American woman whose son is Rubys best friend. During a freak October blizzard, Daniel is stranded at Iriss house, and they begin a sexual liaison that eventually imperils all their relationships, Daniels profession, their childrens well-being, their own race-blindness, and their view of themselves as essentially good people.
