Story

The story

On the day of her husband Preston Prescott's funeral, Audrey overhears his best friend on the phone and learns the death is a lie: Preston is alive at a gaming hotel with a rebellious girl named Roxy. She follows him there and watches him dote on Roxy, who demands he divorce Audrey and tattoo her name on his chest. He agrees without hesitation, mocking Audrey as emotionally numb, rigid and boring, a convenient wife who would dutifully manage the Prescott estate even if he truly died.

Back home, her mother-in-law urges her to remarry, and Audrey finally answers, "Okay." She returns to the bungee tower where she and Preston first met, remembering how he once freed her from her parents' rigid rules, and how he changed six months ago. When she gets down, Roxy smashes her car window and warns her to go along with the divorce.

Audrey must now decide what to do with a marriage built on a vow that has already expired.

Opening excerpt

“Dude, this ‘playing dead’ thing is next level. Your wife is literally burying you at the cemetery, and you’re at a gaming hotel pulling an all-nighter with some chick.”

“Save me a spot. I’m on my way.”

I froze, my blood turning to ice. On autopilot, I followed him to the gaming hotel.

There, I saw him. Preston Prescott, the man whose word was law in our family, now fawning over some rebellious-looking girl with neon-streaked hair. He leaned in close, feeding her lemonade mouth-to-mouth.
