Teela married King Heavenly because she loved him, but life in the Heavenly household was anything but euphoric. Lettie, her hard-as-nails mother-in-law, treats her like an unpaid servant. The family treats her like an outsider. King treats her like a shadow, transparent and forgettable. 

When Lettie presses Teela to prove her value to the family or get out, Teela has a decision to make. But she’s not leaving without a fight.

King Heavenly rules Heavenly Industries with an iron fist, but he leaves his home life to his mother to manage, and that includes the management of his boring little wife. Teela has never complained. She’s never done anything interesting, for that matter. She’s just one more responsibility in a long line of responsibilities that King shoulders on a daily basis, and that is exactly how he treats her — as a responsibility that he’s delegated to his mother. 

Suddenly Teela steps out of the shadows and into a fight with him and his whole family, and King is baffled by the ruthless actions of his now daring wife. He’d always heard that vengeance is a dish best served cold, but Teela is coming in hot!

Wife’s Bitter Revenge Against Neglectful CEO Husband

Those were magic words. All I needed to do was utter them one last time to find my center.

In less time than it took to walk from the car to the chapel, Alec and I signed the contract that would bind us together for a lifetime, hopefully. In a world where divorce was as common as, well, the common cold, we'd signed up to become a statistic. It was up to us whether we ended up victims of divorce or survivors of a complicated marriage. On the other hand, look at everything we would miss out on if we didn't give us as a couple a chance.

Looking at Alec and the love he carried for me in his eyes, I knew, without a doubt, he was worth it.

The scary part was over. The rest was for show. I couldn't believe how much of a relief it was to have a resolution to this one aspect of my life. I was a married woman.

But this time was different. Alec was different. The ending would be different.
