Shirley

« Tout va bien, chérie. » C’est ce que Steven lui répète depuis des mois. Mais ce soir, lors de leur fête d’anniversaire de mariage, Shirley ne peut s’empêcher de sentir que quelque chose cloche. Son mari, autrefois si présent, paraît désormais distant. Ses regards fuyants, ses sourires forcés… et ce message qu’il a tenté de dissimuler à tout prix. « On ne peut pas continuer comme ça. Tu dois lui dire la vérité. » Le texte s’affiche sur l’écran de son téléphone, et Shirley sent son monde vaciller. Sept ans de mariage, une vie en apparence parfaite : une maison impeccable, une fille adorable, un mari aimant… du moins le croyait-elle. Mais derrière les portes closes de leur foyer, les mensonges s’accumulent. Shirley, ancienne prodige de NYU qui a tout sacrifié pour sa famille, s’apprête à affronter une vérité capable de tout faire voler en éclats. Trahisons, secrets enfouis, choix impossibles… Shirley est projetée dans un labyrinthe de tromperies où chaque révélation la rapproche d’une décision déchirante : rester et pardonner… ou tout risquer pour se retrouver elle-même. « Parfois, la vérité ne libère pas. Elle brise. »

They had engaged in an illicit affair. All Penelope wanted was to forget about him. He probably didn't even remember her.

But when Shirley is kidnapped by someone targeting Calvin, Penelope is forced to reveal the truth, shattering the fragile balance of their lives. Now, they must work together not only to bring Shirley back, but to uncover who wants to destroy them – and why. Because what began as a one-night affair… Might have been a setup from the very beginning.

Calista Arden has tried to seduce her husband, Theodore Montclair, for the 999th time, only to fail in consummating her marriage with him as always. Afterward, she calls her older brother, Elijah Arden. "I'm planning on getting a divorce, Elijah." Elijah remains silent for three whole seconds over the line. Finally, he speaks up in a deep, gravelly tone, "I already told you before that it's impossible for you to drill through Theodore's stone-cold heart no matter how hard you try." With reddened eyes, Calista can only chuckle quietly. "Yeah. I'm the overconfident fool here." "Come to Nordland," Elijah says lightly. "There are plenty of hunks here who are as good-looking as Theodore. Since that idiot doesn't know how to cherish my amazing and adorable sister, he can just spend the rest of his life as a devoted man of religion who has no family of his own."
