Ryker (Steele Brothers #1‪)‬

Mackenzie

I thought Ryker would be my forever.

He's still my best friend. The father of our children. 

But somewhere along the way, we lost each other. 

Weeks turned into months without intimacy, and I realized I was too young to feel this old. I want to feel beautiful again. Wanted again. Like the woman he fell in love with twenty years ago. 

And if asking him to move out is the only way to find myself, then that's what I have to do. Even if it breaks my heart.

I never imagined my wife would ask me to leave.

I knew we'd drifted apart. But I never believed we were broken. 

Now she's building a life without me—one where she laughs more, smiles easier, and doesn't seem to need me anymore. 

Losing my home is one thing. Losing the woman I've loved for half my life is breaking me. 

If I can't find my place in her new life, I'll lose everything that matters to me.
