Cheat Day
Andre Yates thought he had cheating down to a science.
A motel room here. A deleted text there. A best friend covering his tracks. A side woman who believed his marriage was already over. A wife at home still cooking dinner, still asking questions, still giving him chances he never deserved.
Then Gina Yates finds the receipts.
Instead of falling apart, Gina plans a night Andre will never forget. She locks down his car, hands him a burner phone, and sends him across Houston on a twisted trail of clues designed to expose every lie he thought he buried.
But Gina’s revenge uncovers something darker than an affair.
Andre’s best friend has been stealing money, moving stolen property, staging evidence, and trying to sell Gina’s pain as viral entertainment. The other woman has been keeping secrets of her own. A fake podcast episode goes live. A hidden apartment is exposed. A marriage memorial turns into a crime scene. And Andre realizes the wife he betrayed may be the only person smart enough to survive the chaos he created.
Fast-paced, darkly funny, and packed with jaw-dropping twists, Cheat Day is an urban psychological thriller about marriage, betrayal, revenge, blackmail, fake evidence, and one woman taking back her story before everyone else profits from it.
Everybody gets one cheat day.
Andre used his on the wrong wife.

I went into this read looking for Gina to get her lick back. But chile I got that and so much more! It became a mystery, a scavenger hunt, and a reality tv show in real time! 😮
Andre is the dumb husband, who was happily cheating and thought he had everything under control, as his wife sat home clueless. Naw sir! Gina was quietly listening to your lies, watching for inconsistencies, and gathering receipts, while planning your downfall. 👀
Then we learn that another player has entered the chat. Mike, who is Andre’s best friend, is also plotting. While Andre thought his boy was helping cover his lies, and secrets he was building something more sinister. Laziness by Andre, allowed Mike accessibility to everything in Andre and Gina’s marriage. Their home, computers, finances, even private recordings. 😮 Damn Andre you gave away access to everything for yo side piece! 🤯😤🤬
This story took me on a wild ride, with laughter, and heartbreaking moments. That marriage memorial was epic! What a story! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
