Her Husband’s Secret Baby with Another Woman (Her Marriage in Crisis #45)

She picks up her husband’s phone by mistake. Then she sees who just texted him.Carmen.** A baby with a fever.**Four words: “Come and help me.”

Carmen. The woman Emily’s own mother always loved more.

Why is Carmen texting Emily’s husband about a baby at nine at night?

Emily follows him across town to find out. She watches her husband kiss Carmen on a doorstep, a baby in a yellow blanket in her arms.

He is cheating. The baby is his. He has a whole secret family.

When Emily tells her mother, the response is: “Just think of the baby as a little niece.”

Her own mother knew. Everyone knew. The betrayal is everywhere she looks.

Emily doesn’t beg. She doesn’t fight for him. She packs her bags in secret, throws her wedding ring into a lake, and files for divorce.

Then, at her high school reunion: Richard Reed. Her first love. He’s a billionaire now, and he never stopped wanting her. Ten years later, this is their second chance.

Her cheating husband wants her back. Her mother wants her to stay quiet. Richard wants to give her the world.

But Emily is done living for other people.

This time, she is choosing herself.
