Special Edition Paperback: Mr. Second Best

I'm in love with my best friend’s widow.
The only person I’ve cared more for is gone.

There’s no doubt he knew, and never let on.
It was just the kind of man Jake was.

I’ve worn my guilt like a second skin since we were teens, worshipping her from afar.

Yet time has done me no favors.
Under the surface, resentment grows.
A rage no one else sees.
Because I’m trapped. I can’t move on, but I can’t have her.

But now she’s asked me to do the unthinkable…
grant her the comfort she needs.

I’m helpless to say no to Melanie.
I’d give her anything.
Even if doing this will ultimately destroy me when it’s over.
