“Marriage. Sometimes you're soulmates. Sometimes you're cellmates.” —Unknown

Our love story is simple. I met a gorgeous woman. We fell in love. We had kids. We moved to the suburbs. We told each other our biggest dreams, and our darkest secrets. And then we got bored.

We all have secrets to keeping a marriage alive.

Ours just happens to be criminal . . .
