<blockquote>“Listen, you can have your pick of men in town, but I can’t ever love again. He’s the only one for me. Leave him alone.”
That was what you were supposed to say, right? Chapter One in the How to Confront Your Husband’s Mistress handbook? Because you and Jesse have been married since high school, and that was what you did. You fought to preserve the fumbling on prom night and the negative pregnancy test and the whispered vows you exchanged anyway. Even when those vows shattered like the wedding china that slipped from your hands the first time you heard him say her name.
