A plane crash tore my husband and his twin brother apart. One survived. One did not.

Alicia is your legal wife." He adjusted his glasses, voice icy and distant. "I swore to my brother I'd protect Emily for the rest of my life. I am him now. As for Alicia… let her be the debt I carry into my next life." That's when I learned the truth. It was the brother-in-law who died in the crash.

The woman clinging to old memories, living in torture for three years. What was I to him?
