What happens when the woman you marry isn’t the woman you want? Your heart fights with your head and a lot of people you care about get hurt. Being the other woman was never my goal. But loving him made it impossible not to be. A love triangle between lifelong friends certainly complicates the issue. From the moment I realised we couldn’t be together, I hit the self-destruct button. Life gets complicated and tragedy appears out of nowhere. Loyalty is tested. And love is denied. Our passion is real. Our feelings strong. Our story heart-breaking. He was never mine to begin with, but every moment in his arms was precious. No one is ever promised a happy ending, but for me loving him was worth the risk. Will he ever choose me? Trigger Warning: Contains adult themes including infidelity, terminal illness and drug use.

Finding my wife in bed with an old friend was the most heart-wrenching day of my life. My world was turned upside down in a single moment, and all my plans turned to dust. I wanted to run straight back to the army, but then I met Katie. She was everything I shouldn’t want, almost twenty years older than me with more baggage than a jumbo jet. But I fell for her hard and she was all I ever wanted. The problem with falling in love with an older woman is they have a conscience. They know what society expects from them. They try to follow their head instead of their heart. Life without her is colourless. I will move heaven and earth to ensure our relationship has the chance it deserves. Trigger Warning: contains adult themes including descriptions of violence, physical and verbal abuse.

Sometimes, love just isn’t enough. I found my soulmate in my mid-twenties, but life didn’t turn out as we hoped. His love wasn’t strong enough to ride every wave. I have to find myself a new future, somehow. Here I am in my mid-forties, alone and at a crossroads about what kind of woman I want to be. It feels as though every turn I take, I hit a roadblock. Nothing ends how it’s meant to. In recent years, I’ve lost my sister, my best friend, my home, my confidence. I lost me. I’ve dealt with grief and loss in insurmountable measures. Things take a drastic change when someone I despise starts to look appealing―a man I hate. My heart is a traitor to my mind as unexpected feelings build out of nowhere. He’s a known playboy. A man who earned the world and never settled down. This man, now, has his sights set on me. It’s never wise to try to tame the womaniser. Will this not just lead to more heartache for me. Can you really rebuild your future midway through life? I don’t know.
