The Husband’s Revenge
Pamela thought exposing Kyle’s darkest secret would destroy him. She was wrong. Instead of breaking, Kyle was transformed by a singular purpose: revenge.
Just as he’s reeling from his loss, a phone call at a graveside shatters his grief with a new truth: his secret was just one piece of a much deadlier puzzle.
Now, Kyle isn't alone. He's building a loyal army and amassing power. Together, they won't just hunt the liars and expose the betrayals—they will unleash a revenge that can never be undone. Kyle is convinced he has nothing left to lose. He's about to find out how wrong he is.

The Husband’s Revenge is a satisfying 4-star sequel that hits the ground running. The best part? Franklin Christopher finally answers the question that has been haunting me since book one: What happened to Sheila?
Getting that closure was worth the read alone, but the new twists kept the momentum going with plenty of jaw-dropping shockers. This book will have you questioning who is telling the truth and what even is the truth. If you're invested in the series, you need to read this one.
