After all, there’s one rule she promised never to break, don’t fall for a colleague. Especially not your boss. But Kevin is different. Or is he? When a phone call interrupts one of their late-night work sessions. a call from someone named Naomi. Rebecca’s curiosity ignites. Who is Naomi? A wife? A lover? A secret?
