Was it inevitable that the relationship between stepmother and stepson would eventually cross a line? The son finally confesses the feelings he's long suppressed: "Mom... I've been in love with you for a long time." The stepmother, moved by his words, responds in kind: "Let me show you how it's done. But this stays between us—don't tell Dad." What begins as a secret shared only by two soon deepens into something neither expected. Though the word "affair" comes to mind, it fails to capture the depth of emotion growing between them. How did a bond with no blood tie arrive at this point? The inevitability of their connection, and the intensity of their feelings, drive this story to its gripping conclusion.
