Monique Alexander has it all: looks, intelligence, a successful career as a high school English teacher, and an attractive husband who serves as a police officer. But unfortunately for their marriage, her husband spends as much time playing in the streets as he does protecting them. Monique wants nothing more than the happily-ever-after fantasy with a faithful husband. Despite her husband's betrayals, she clings to the illusion of a good marriage. That illusion is shaken by the arrival of a mysterious package that is addressed to her husband. Driven mad by curiosity, suspicion, and experience, she lets her emotions get the best of her. If infidelity is so justifiable for the gander, she reasons, why shouldn't the goose have fun too? Enraged, she seeks out an old flame to have her carnal, primal revenge. In her wildest dreams, she couldn't have imagined that Damon would leave her, but he does. Can their marriage recover from so much betrayal? Or will Monique pursue the life of happiness in another man's arms?
