He was never supposed to be mine.
My best friend married him first.
Fourteen years later, cancer took her. She's gone.
I'm helping raise their kids.
One late-night sext changes everything.
And everything I've been hiding comes spilling out.
Now the fire captain who saved half this town wants me-
and admits he always has.
But loving him means crossing a line we swore we never would.
Everyone will think I was waiting for her to die.
Maybe I was.
Because some loves don't fade-they wait for the moment you finally stop resisting.
