I Befriended The Mistress

Fifteen years of marriage. Seven hundred thousand dollars in hidden funds. And one massive mistake: he told his mistress his wife was dead.

Annabelle Dink thought she had a perfectly ordinary, perfectly exhausting marriage to a man whose greatest talent was weaponized incompetence. Then she finds his buzzing smartwatch. The texts from a woman named Eva reveal a secret life, complete with romantic getaways and a tragic backstory where Annabelle drowned in a jet-ski accident.

Armed with righteous fury, a flawlessly organized manila folder, and her best navy-blue "subpoena" dress, Annabelle drives across town to ruin the other woman. But instead of a homewrecker, she finds a devastated, paint-splattered girlfriend who just baked a casserole for the anniversary of Annabelle's "death."

Realizing the true enemy is the man playing them both, Annabelle and Eva form a highly organized, utterly ruthless alliance. Their mission? Exhaust him, bankrupt him, and dismantle his lies piece by piece.

Befriending the Mistress is a sharp, laugh-out-loud story about betrayal, the sheer audacity of men, and the unstoppable force of women teaming up to get exactly what they deserve.
