Maggie thought she was content with her serviceable marriage, but when a new neighbor awakens the hidden passion inside of her, she must make an impossible choice: risk it all and follow her heart or lose her brother forever. Season 1 of In My Neighbor's Bed *** Maggie Henderson is a housewife living in your typical picture-perfect suburb. A handsome husband, friendly neighbors, and a peaceful life. What more could a girl ask for? Too bad it's all a lie. In reality, her husband is a manipulative jerk who uses a prenup and her terminally ill brother to keep her from leaving, her neighbors are as fake as a three-dollar bill, and her "peaceful life" is actually boring as hell. But that all changes when the new guy, Mason Kendall, moves in across the street. What starts as a sexy game soon turns into a full-fledged affair. But as feelings bloom beneath the surface, the stakes in their little game become higher than ever before. What will she choose? A new life with her lover? Or the life of her dying brother? *** "You're going to kill me at this rate," he grumbled. I had to repress a giggle as I feigned ignorance. "What do you mean? Am I too heavy? Should I get off?" "Don't worry, I'll take care of getting you off," he murmured, sliding his hands under my shirt.
