My Boss Wanted Me, My Husband didn’t

Emily Carter has always believed she had a stable marriage with Brian Carter.  Brian Carter was kind, reliable, and emotionally distant in ways Emily had always thought to ignore and manage.  Only until she met her Boss- Lucas Reed. He was everything Brian wasn’t and all that Emily desired to want. He was attentive, commanding and he was dangerously perceptive. It all started from long work hours and quiet conversations which led to an emotional connection Emily could no longer ignore.  Trapped between loyalty and desires, Emily struggles with guilt as the emotional connection between her and Lucas Reed waxes stronger and slowly crosses the professional boundaries. When one impulsive night changes everything, Emily finds herself in an affair she never planned but cannot walk away from.  Lucas wants more than snippets of Emily, he wants more than stolen moments -he wants Emily completely.  Juggling between her double life, cracks continued to deepen in Emily and Brian’s Marriage. Brian senses the distance but remains passive, forcing Emily to question whether love can survive neglect. Meanwhile, Lucas’s past, ambition, and control over Emily’s career create a dangerous imbalance of power that threatens to destroy her reputation, Marriage, and future.
