Lipstick on His Collar, Lies in My Heart

I thought I’d married the perfect man—until I found the lipstick stain on his collar and the apartment across town he kept for her.

As the women around me whispered that this was just 'the way of men,' I clung to my pride, even as my marriage unraveled. But when a mysterious stranger’s smile lights up my lonely world, I begin to wonder—can I break free, or am I doomed to live a lie? When love is a game of appearances, who dares to want more?
