I Paid for My Own Anniversary Jewelry While My Husband Fell for My Best Friend

by Mia Martin

When successful Manhattan socialite Elena Chen buys her own fifth anniversary jewelry and watches her husband Marcus accept the credit, she thinks she's reached the lowest point of her hollow marriage. But discovering him in a passionate embrace with Sophia—her best friend since college, her confidante, the maid of honor at her wedding—shatters the last illusion she'd been clinging to. As Elena navigates the glittering but ruthless world of New York's elite, she must decide whether to maintain her perfect facade or burn down everything she's built for a chance at something real. The problem is, Marcus and Sophia aren't the only ones keeping secrets, and the truth about her marriage is far more complicated than a simple affair. Sometimes the person you've been pretending to be is the only thing standing between you and your freedom.
