That I wouldn't love a man who kept the door to his heart bolted shut. But I did. In the way he said my name when he was tired. In the way he protected me without admitting it. I fell for a man who didn't want a wife. And every day, I wondered if being his wasn't enough to be his." ~ "I married her, not for love-but for peace. I told myself she was just a name on paper, not someone who'd turn my world upside down. I was cold, distant. Maybe even cruel. But she stayed. She smiled when I didn't deserve it. She made a stranger's house feel like something I wanted to come home to. And without warning-I fell. Now I can't look at her without wondering how I ever thought I could live untouched by her love."

Will they finally spill their secret love for each other, or will temptation spill it for them? * * * * * Jessy was enjoying the fact that Bryan couldn't seem to remove his eyes from her cleavage, and she smiled at that. If this was what they called seduction, she was up for it this night.

"You like what you see?" She asked him trying so hard to sound seductive. "Huh?" Bryan asked confused, trying to divert his eyes away from his best friend's bosom, but his eyes didn't seem to obey. "You like what you see?" She asked again, this time scooting closer to him. It was as if the drink gave her the confidence that she needed. "Ummmm... Would it be weird if I said yes?" He asked, "I shouldn't like seeing my best friend's bosom, I shouldn't." He muttered to himself. "But you like it, huh?" She didn't know if it was the alcohol acting against her sober self, but she found herself placing her lips on his. His lips were so soft, and succulent and enticing, she thought, then she stopped, and looked at him, waiting for him to say something, anything to avoid feeling embarrassed for kissing her best friend of nine years! * Follow up on the rollercoaster romance story of Bryan and Jessy and how they were able to overcome the challenges the articles brought to them.
