He seated his mistress
at my table.
A free novella — and the fastest way into The Betrayal Upgrade Series.
A table with her name on it. A sommelier in her chair. And a husband who forgot who actually runs his restaurant.
Sloane is the reason her husband’s restaurant runs like a dream, and she gets none of the credit for it. The night she finds her standing table given away and comped to the pretty new sommelier, she understands that the receipt is the small part.
She doesn’t make a scene. She opens the books.
Gideon delivers his own wine, and he has spent two years quietly noticing who holds that room together. He has patience, he has leverage, and he has the unsettling habit of treating her like a partner instead of staff.
Julian spent years mistaking indispensable for invisible. He’s about to learn the difference, in front of everyone who matters.
One sitting. No cliffhanger.
A short, bingeable standalone. It opens The Betrayal Upgrade Series, but every book in it stands alone — read them in any order.
Unseen wife who runs everything · Cheating chef husband · The comped table that starts it all · Restaurant-world revenge · Vineyard-owner better man · Slow-burn power reversal · Steamy sexual upgrade · Ex regret · She takes back her own name
