The Lover

The gang continues their story in another installment of the bestselling Forever and Always Series.

Mike and Cassandra move in together, and Mike is surprised how much he loves being domesticated. Having her in the house everyday and in his bed every night is a dream come true. But when he meets her best friend for the first time, he realizes he slept with her—and didn't leave on good terms. Cassandra knows about his past, but will she still be able to look past it?

Sean and Scarlet decide to visit the fertility clinic to make sure everything is okay. Scarlet is scared to death that she can't give Sean a family, and he's terrified she'll take all the blame onto herself. But their stress is increased when Andrew shows up on their doorstep, all his bags in hand and his wedding ring missing.

Janice gets her dream job as the chief copy editor for a prestigious publishing house, but Ryan isn't exactly thrilled about it. When he realizes a friend pulled strings to get her the job—a male friend—he's immediately on edge. Ryan attends a work function with Janice only to find out her special friend is a refined Calvin Klein underwear model. And he's pissed. But Janice doesn't let him get his way. Stubborn and strong, she tells Ryan he needs to let go of his jealousy.

Cortland and Monnique work on their relationship, but when Monnique realizes Hazel has no idea they are back together, she demands him to never see her again. Cortland puts his foot down and refuses. If she has a problem with it, she can walk out. If she didn't want him seeing other women, she shouldn't have dumped him to begin with.

The gang work through their individuals problems while holding tight in their alliance as an unorthodox family.
