Wrapped Up in Us

Grace has the life she’s always wanted. So why is everything falling apart?

Grace Russo
I met the love of my life when I was a sophomore in college, and ten years later we’re married with the sweetest baby in the world. I should be living my dream, but the reality is that being a mom to Mia is hard, and Aidan and I are farther apart than ever. Nursing is frustrating and all-consuming, and finding the energy for spicy time with my amazing husband? Forget it. But maybe this is just the way life goes when you’re a parent.

Aidan Russo
Grace is the girl of my dreams. I spotted her in our college library and vowed to spend the rest of my life fixing any problems that crossed her path. What’s going on now, however, has me stumped. I still see the sexy-as-hell, take-charge librarian that she is, but Grace seems to be trapped by her insecurities and doubts. Although I’d walk over fire for her and our daughter, my old worries are starting to creep in: What if she’s doubting us? I need to find some way to convince my wife to lean on me so I can get us back to our beautiful happily-ever-after.
