And when her husband breaks one of her two rules, the country girl comes roarin' back to life. Road Dog was frustrated with the way he and his wife, Sandra, would argue. He would let her stew until she got over it, then she would come to him and make peace. But he broke one of her rules and she isn't playing anymore. Road Dog finally gets to see the wife he had never seen before. Can he save his marriage, or will Sandra choose to leave him for a 'good ole country boy'?

In the quiet corner of my heart, he was my forever. He was my shadow, my secret keeper, my unspoken promise the boy who whispered "always" under starlit skies and made me believe in a love that could weather anything. Our trio with vivacious best friend Cecilia felt unbreakable. Until the day Caleb vanished without a word. No goodbye. No explanation. Just a space where my entire world used to be.

Then, in the glittering ballroom of a luxury hotel, fate delivers the cruelest twist: Caleb-older, devastatingly handsome, slipping a ring on the finger of one person who knew what he meant to me. Watching him get engaged to another woman hurt me, but realizing that the other woman was the same woman on whose shoulder I had cried multiple times destroyed me. But I would kill myself before I let them see the wreckage of my ruins. So instead of walking away quietly, I moved toward them. Plastering a smile on my lips, I lifted my wine glass and congratulated them. Congratulated myself because for years my heart was in his captivity and in this moment he had finally set it free. The exact moment I stopped loving Caleb Montaign. Now to me he was somebody I used to know. Three hearts, one forbidden Love

We thought we were unbreakable. Turns out, we just hadn't found the right hammer. Eight years of marriage. High school sweethearts. First loves, first touches, and the only people we had ever known. But eight years breeds routine, and routine breeds a dull, suffocating silence. So, we made a deal. One night. Other people. No emotions, no callbacks, and absolutely no second meets. The rules were supposed to save our dying marriage. Instead, the jealousy sparked an addictive, volatile fire that brought us back to life. For a moment, the high was intoxicating. But when you play with fire, someone always gets burned. When the smoke finally cleared, I realized he hadn't just bent our sacred rules-he had completely shattered them. Now, with the sound of breaking glass still echoing in my ears and divorce papers resting on the counter, I'm forced to face the ultimate question: Can you ever really rebuild an empire once you've burned it to the ground?
