I love words! And I love to read! So each Wednesday I’m going to grab an unfamiliar or unusual word I’ve discovered and post it with the pronunciation and definition found at http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/perfidy).
Happy Reading, Cyndi
What a great word. I should have used that in Divorce, Interrupted.
I actually used that word in my last manuscript. My hero had a hard time trusting women because he couldn’t forget about his ex-wife’s perfidy.
The sins of one woman always seem to reflect on the rest of us somehow. Why is that? Makes for good romance book fodder though.
