Unstoppable

I've heard it said that you don't know what you've got until it's gone, but I'm not sure that's true. I know what it is I've never had the very instant I lay eyes on Lauren...When my wife decides pursuing her career is more important than our marriage, I am angry with everyone for all the time wasted.I'm angry, lonely and suspicious of everyone when I meet Lauren, a provocative, brazen little tease. The woman is unlike anyone I've ever met, sensual and hypnotic, and she knows just which buttons to push. A true force of nature, she knows exactly what she wants and how to get it. That something is me and her attention is both terrifying and thrilling. Still, I try to keep her at an arm's length because she's forbidden fruit: I'm far too old for her and my life is too complicated to drag an innocent into my mess.My parents adore her, my dog is violently in love with her, and when it turns out she has been hiding a complicated life of her own, I can't understand how she remains so open-hearted. She brings such light to everyone in her orbit that the thought of going back to what life was before is crippling.When dirty laundry is aired, it's clear I can't offer anything of myself to the woman who's wormed her way into my life. I question who I am and how I'm supposed to move forward without her.I thought I'd lost everything before I met Lauren, but it turns out I was just getting started.* This work is 100% human written/produced. *
