The Wife He Cheated on with His Mistress (Her Marriage in Crisis #82)

She follows her husband when he sneaks off to take a call and finds him with another woman -

his friend’s wife.

The other woman says “I’m pregnant, Kirk. It’s yours.”

For ten years, Heather Teagues was the perfect wife.

She wore the dresses he picked. She smiled at the people he needed. She never once checked his phone, because good wives don’t.

That trust cost her everything. Three years - that’s how long Kirk had been lying to her face, and now everyone knows.

So she files for divorce.

Then she watches them turn on her. Kirk’s mother tells everyone Heather was cold. Her friends decide she drove him to it. Overnight, she’s the villain in a story where she did nothing wrong.

Let them talk.

And Heather isn’t the only one left standing in the wreckage.

Grayson Falkner - the husband of the other woman. He was blindsided the same night she was, betrayed by his own wife and his friend, Kirk. Quiet. Careful. The only other person in this mess who never cheated.

His offer is simple. Pretend to be a couple. Walk into every party on each other’s arm and let the two cheaters watch them thrive.

It’s supposed to be fake.

But he looks at her like she’s the only one in the room - and night after night, the line between pretending and wanting starts to blur.

The problem isn’t that no one believes them.

It’s that she’s stopped wanting it to be a lie.

Now Kirk wants her back - desperate, and too late. His mother wants her quiet. The whole city wants to decide how her story ends.

Heather spent ten years choosing everyone else.

Now she chooses herself.
