The Home Wrecker

Description

"I’ve been faithful long enough.\r\n\r\nI never claimed to be a good man, but I’ve always done what was expected of me.\r\n\r\nFind a nice girl. Get married. Have children.\r\n\r\nThat was my duty as a good Christian man.\r\n\r\nAnd everything was going as planned when I met Briar.\r\n\r\nBeautiful. Charismatic. Sexy.\r\n\r\nBut marriage is hard, and after seven years, I feel like I’m failing.\r\n\r\nThen, a figure from my past enters the picture.\r\n\r\nDean Sheridan is cocky and charming. When this twenty-five-year-old needs a place to stay, I should turn him away—especially after I notice the spark between him and my wife. But I don’t.\r\n\r\nWhen I pressure him about his relationship with Briar, he does the last thing I expect.\r\n\r\nHe dares me.\r\n\r\nHe thinks he can take what’s mine.\r\n\r\nAnd if it’s a challenge he wants, it’s a challenge he’ll get.\r\n\r\nWhat started as a game becomes so much more.\r\n\r\nBetween them. Between us.\r\n\r\nThis isn’t how normal couples behave.\r\n\r\nThe games we’re playing are dangerous.\r\n\r\nAnd the roles we’re playing are far more.\r\n\r\nBut God help me, I can’t seem to stop.\r\n\r\nWhat we’re doing is wrong, but it feels so right, and before long, I don’t recognize the good husband I used to be."
