Limerence
Be careful what you tell yourself.
Jackie Baker likes to pretend. She pretends she’s happily married to her handsome, successful husband. She pretends she’s the perfect mother to her two beautiful children. She even pretends that her secret job as a phone-sex operator is noble and fulfilling.
But after years of pretending, Jackie's life is about to unravel. Her husband may be having an affair. Her mothering skills may be less than stellar, and her new client with the alluring voice is about to send her spiraling.
As the line between reality and fantasy begins to blur, Jackie Baker becomes trapped in a cycle of obsession and lies. Now, she either has to get her life back on track, or it will spin out of control forever.

Very interesting!
It's nice to read a book that tackles modern day issues such as emotional cheating using social media and other platforms, limerence, mental health issues and the consequences to your relationship especially when you are married. It is kind of self-help book as well as it makes you realise a lot about yourself; and being somone who's diagnosed with anxiety, depression and PTSD, I can easily relate to this book.
