If you are this close to this woman I think you should sit her down and tell her your feelings, but saying that you aren't interested in ruining your marriage. Nothing good ever comes of hiding things from ppl close to you, and this will cause a strain to your relationship. Just tell her you wanted to get it out in the open so you can get over it, and you don't want to lose her as the great friend she's been. You're human and this feeling is normal, and your friend should understand and maybe help you "get over" your attraction.
I think if two friends of opposite sexes can do this and get past that awkward period of attraction then you can last as friends. But try to straighten it out with her before you tell your wife if she's a jealous type. No use ruining your marriage over something you're trying to *not* do either.
