Publisher's Summary

Irene had been married into a family that relied on culture to determine their fate. Unhappily married to Shane, her husband, Irene wanted out so badly. She wanted a divorce that couldn't happen because of their strict culture and her only son. If she divorced Shane, it would embarrass the entire family and Shane could get full custody of her son. So her son became the pawn between them. It had been too much for Irene to fake her marriage, so she moved out and went to a city where she found a job at a very large company, hired a maid for her son, and was forced to send money home to her husband, who didn't work. Then Irene meets Morgan, and things change.

Morgan is her supervisor and they faced each other for the first time under unusual circumstances - Morgan was reprimanding her for substandard work. It was not a good meeting and she left feeling angry at him. What happened after shocked even her. She falls deeply in love by accident. He feels the same, but they don't realize the truth - and then it's too late to turn back. They spend tons of time together in passionate embrace, acting silly with each other and having fun together. It came time, though, in the relationship where they had to face the facts - what future was there for them with Irene's situation still looming over them? They had to part. The story has many turns and twists and the end will delight and possibly alarm you. Caught in a love triangle, staying together was more important to them, but so was keeping her son and divorcing her husband. You will find this story very compelling and filled with suspense, love, passion, infidelity, fun, sadness, pain, and hurt. Love can be the sweetest thing, but it can also hurt very badly.
