The Cheater's Wife

A twist-filled psychological and domestic thriller packed with family secrets, shocking twists, and suspense, following a woman who protects her stepson from a murder accusation only to discover deadly secrets in her home, perfect for fans of Freida McFadden and Kiersten Modglin.

She turned her husband’s betrayal into a second chance. Now, it might cost her everything.

Camille Bell never wanted to raise her husband’s mistake. RJ, the son of Ryan’s most public betrayal, was a constant reminder of everything she lost—the picture-perfect life, the adoring husband, the future she was promised. But instead of casting him aside, she did what no one expected. She made him hers.

RJ grew into the perfect son—strong, ambitious, successful. Unlike her own child, Gideon, who always seemed to fall short.

Then a girl is murdered at a high school party. And all signs point to RJ.

Camille knows what happens to jocks accused of crimes. The media frenzy. The courtroom battles. The public trial before the real one even begins. She knows the justice system won’t wait for the truth. So, she does what she swore she’d never do—she protects him.

But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes RJ isn’t the only one with secrets. Someone in her house is a killer. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more she starts to wonder—has she been raising a monster?

This shocking, fast-paced psychological thriller is packed with twist and turns that will leave you gasping, questioning everything, and then dying to read it again.
