They Will Live With Us

“They Will Live With Us” is a novel by Amelia Born. Genre: contemporary romance. “Koooool… are you home? What are those boots doing in the hallway?” I asked, surprised by the shoe arrangement I saw when I walked inside. “Come in,” my husband ordered, having taken the store bags from me. “I’ll tell you everything.” “What will you tell me?” I giggled, following Kolya. He marched into the kitchen and, as if nothing had happened, began unpacking the groceries. Meanwhile, I stared at the woman and the two girls sitting at the table. “This is Kira, Vika, and Masha,” my husband said, neatly putting the groceries away in the fridge. “And they’ll live with us.” I had an ordinary life: a husband I’d been with for ten years, and a son we both adored. Nothing hinted at trouble until my husband brought his second family to us and said, “They will live with us.”
