The Chef's Lie, Her Scars

My husband Collin and I were Chicago' s culinary power couple, but our perfect life was a lie. To win the coveted Golden Spoon award, he brought in a protégée, Casey-a woman who looked just like me, twenty years younger.

Then I overheard his sickening plan. He would use my talent to win the award, securing our empire. After that, he' d set Casey up as his adoring mistress in Europe.

"I get to have both," he bragged. "The respectable chef wife, the passionate, adoring mistress. It's perfect."
