Toni
At thirty-three, I was hopelessly in love with my best friend and roommate, Aisling Butcher. She was everything I wanted but could never have because I wouldn't break that barrier. My fear of losing her was too much to transcend. That didn't mean I didn't live for every adoring expression when she looked at me. Yet how much longer could I remain strong before I revealed my secret?

My baby sister's best friend, Toni, was flawless. She was everything I'd always wanted but knew I couldn't possess. She was always my Babygirl. Her happiness and safety my only concern in life. That's why I wouldn't make my feelings known. I wasn't good enough. I wouldn't let my demons touch her perfection. But when teasing kisses turn to more, am I brave enough to claim what's mine?
