Warning: This book contains cheating and sexual situations. Recommended for ages 18+. They say karma is a bitch. And I'd agree—I had lived it. I had an affair with a married man...who also happened to be my professor. I couldn't stop it, couldn't control it. The only problem was that, I, of course, wanted more, and he couldn't give it to me. Life moved on, I thought I'd moved on, but karma came back and destroyed it all. My husband fell in love with his secretary, and I was left trying to figure out if love was even real. I wanted to believe it was. I was almost positive I never stopped loving the one man I couldn't have. But...what if I could have him? What if he wasn't as off-limits as I had thought?** Views: 32
