Tightrope

I promised to love. I swore to obey. I was compelled to betray.

Married to my college sweetheart, I thought I knew my path. We were forging our perfect future, everything falling into place. Until the man I promised my life to changed into a cruel, cold shadow of the man I loved.

With everything I thought I knew in tatters, I find myself in a bar, face to face with a sexy stranger who unlocks things about myself I'd long forgotten.

Just one night. Wild and passionate. A balm for my bruised and lonely heart. Now I can't stop thinking about him, wishing I knew the name of the man who has set me free and stolen my heart.

But happiness is never easy. Now caught between a twisted and dangerous past that won't let me go, and the hope for a future that once seemed so far out of my reach. I face the ultimate price as I'm left fighting for everything I want.

Love that will last a lifetime.

Duty or desire, what would you choose?
