Ruby believed she had married stability. Her husband—a disciplined, well-respected lawyer—offered her a life that looked perfect on paper: a beautiful home, financial security, and a future carefully planned down to the smallest detail. Their marriage was warm and loving at first, built on trust and quiet promises. But everything begins to change the moment Ruby moves into his house.

Behind closed doors, the home feels different—too quiet, too controlled, filled with unspoken rules she was never warned about. As days turn into months, Ruby starts to feel like a guest in her own marriage, slowly losing pieces of herself she didn’t realize she was giving up.

Then there is Lucas—her brother-in-law. Unlike her husband, Lucas is unpredictable, emotionally present, and painfully aware of the cracks forming in Ruby’s life. What begins as harmless conversations and shared moments of understanding grows into something far more complicated. Boundaries blur.

Guilt and desire intertwine.

Caught between loyalty and longing, Ruby must confront the truth about her marriage, her identity, and the dangerous pull of a connection she knows she should resist—but may not be able to escape.
