Every day is like a ticking time bomb. For every blissful moment in the sun, the universe punishes me with unforgiving darkness. I’m so close to the truth yet the obstacles keep piling up, the deaths keep destroying us and I’m afraid one of us will eventually succumb to this cruelty. The secrets, the lies, the deceptions are all part of my husband’s world, but the moment I chose to walk beside him, they became part of my world too. If only he would let me all the way in.

My secret is out. My entire existence is shattered, and picking myself up again proves difficult. Leaving Rose behind for a new beginning is harder than I thought, but I need to try for a more independent me with a promising future. One that doesn’t involve the infuriating yet irresistible man who challenges me at every turn. Pushing me. Protecting me. Tempting me beyond any possible resistance. This is the lie I tell myself. Making good decisions—apparently—doesn’t come easily to me and this time, I’ve gone too far. This time, I’ve made a fatal mistake.
