Debauched - Undone, #3

One night in a moment of sheer madness I confessed my secrets to him. All my life I've been pretending. Pretending to be the woman I thought I should be instead of the woman I really am.  I've been faking it and I am good.  No one has ever guessed.  Except him.  He just looked at me and knew. Chad Fellows is not the man I want, but he's fast becoming the man I need.  One night in a moment of sheer madness I held her in my arms and let her cry. I did the right thing, letting her walk away, no matter how much she calls to the part of me that wants to rescue her.  We are nothing alike, and she's a mess of complications in a life I'm trying to keep simple.
But then I touched her and made her tremble and now I can't turn away.   Ruby Stiles is not the woman I want, but she's fast becoming the woman I need.
