It all happened in the middle of the night when Jen overheard her husband, Brandon, whispering to someone on the phone, saying, “I just can’t quit you.”

The news was devastating for Jen, who described the experience as being outside the realm of what she ever expected for their life together. After further investigation, Jen found evidence of a long-standing affair, leading to the end of their marriage.

In her book, Jen also opens up about the struggles they faced in their relationship before the infidelity came to light. Despite trying to work on their issues through couple’s counseling, the betrayal was a heartbreaking end to their marriage.
