The OW is hired at the H law firm after one of the partners retires. They are both attracted to each other but the H doesn’t want to cheat on his wife having seen what infidelity leads to as he is a divorce lawyer and he rebuffs the OW’s attempts to seduce him.That all changes when the London bombing happens practically in front of the law firm’s doors. Shaken the H and OW flee to her apartment located 10 min away. They are barely inside her apartment building when they smex on the stairs leading up to her apartment. They continue their affair while the H is conflicted and trying to end it and the OW keeps telling herself that she is only “borrowing” the H and no one will ever get hurt because no one will ever find out.As the affair progresses and the OW begins to fall for the H and starts to sabotage his attempts to keep the affair secret. She is hurt by the fact that he can’t spend time with her on Valentine’s Day and has to watch as he arrives at the restaurant they had made a date to meet at with his wife.The h begins to suspect that the H is having an affair and this is confirmed when she overhears the OW discussing the affair in a restaurant bathroom w/ her BFF while the h is in a stall. She is devastated but the H falls down some steps and the h is saved from having to confront either the H or the OW.When he H’s father becomes ill and is dying and the h can’t locate the H she goes to the OW’s apartment. The H and the OW have just finished smexing and are shocked when the h barges in to give the h the news. The H moves out of the family home and into the OW’s apartment when the h kicks him out.Things don’t turn out as perfect as the OW thought they would when she and the H, who is used to having his meals prepared, laundry washed, etc are forced to live together. His daughters hate the OW and make their lives hell when the H has them on weekends.Meanwhile the h has reconnected with her super hot and successful ex which makes not only the H jealous but also the OW who sees her old glamorous life drift away and be replaced by the responsibility of having to watch over children and take care of a home. The H regrets the affair and calls the h, leaving her a message asking her to forgive him and give him one more opportunity. He also tells her that he loves her and that he never loved the OW. When he turns around the OW is standing in the doorway and she tells him that she is pregnant. The H feels honor bound to stay with her and proposes.The OW is desperate and goes to plead with the h and to get her to promise her that she doesn’t want the H back and will do nothing to take him from her since she knows that she can’t hold him. The OW finds the h looking completely devastated and begins to realize all the harm that she has caused. The h has one of the best speeches I have ever read in a cheating book and makes the OW fell like cr*p for what she did and how it affected not only the h but also her three daughters and their families.The OW waits for the H at her apartment and tells him that she is leaving the firm and that she isn’t pregnant after all. The h and H finally talk when the h goes to his office and she tells him that that he has to be aware that she had smexed the OM and that it had been more than once but that she was will to give him another chance so they could try to fix their marriage. It’s very rare in cheating books that the h and OW have a confrontation where the h comes out on top. I was very glad that they did in this one and that the h verbally annihilated the OW IMHO. I also liked that the OW didn’t get off without at least some repercussions. By the end of the book every one hated her and lost total respect for her, from the people at her office to the H, and even her own mother refused to make allowances for her behavior. Because the book gave the POV of all three we saw what all three people were going through but it was really strange to get one POV and then have to go back and see the exact same events through the other two POV. I’m still trying to figure out if I liked this book or not but right now I’m leaning more towards like ;) Hope this helps you decide on whether to read it or not.
