Ryan's Secret Duet: Ryan's Secret and Ryan's Obsession

RYAN'S SECRET
I'm in love with my best friend's wife.
Today, I bury my partner. My brother in all but blood.
It should be me in that casket. John had a wife. A son. A future.
I only had the job¿ and him.
Now all I have left is a promise-to protect what he loved most.
Gwen doesn't know the truth. She doesn't know I've crossed a line I can never uncross. And if I keep this vow, it might destroy what's left of my soul.

RYAN'S OBSESSION
Gwen Riley is my former partner's widow and the object of my obsession. I've waited two long years for her heart to heal. Waited for a sign she was ready to allow another man into her life. I positioned myself to be the one she turned to and what did she do? Go out on a date with another man. Before tonight is over, my lovely lady will learn what I've always known--she belongs to me.
